I suppose that is possible. Be that as it may, let me offer you a quote from Donna Shalala. These are her own words. The speech is from 1999 and can be found here. Here is a quote that appears near the end of the speech.
I realize that I'm preaching to the choir-because all of you here certainly make everyone's children your responsibility. We need to convince others that our young people are everyone's responsibility.
The rest of the speech is about exanding, at great expense, FEDERAL child welfare laws. Her justification for this expansion of federal power and reduction of parental rights are two specific stories of horrific abuse - just like the ones we are discussing here on FR.
This speech is just one example.
I think the opposite of what she is preaching is what is needed. We need to strengthen the family unit, make it more affordable. There is far too much stress on young couples trying to start a life these days.
I don't think we would have runaways, throwaways or homeless youths if the parents were better prepared for raising their children. I was almost 31 when our 1st daughter was born and my wife was 28. Much easier than doing it if we were 21 and 18.
