In Memory: These children died In the government’s care in the name of “safety”
Posted by: Forever on: October 5, 2007
In: child abuse | child death | cps | domestic violence | education | family | foster care | government | love | missing child | social services | system failure

These children were killed or died AFTER they were taken into CPS’s custody for allegations of abuse/neglect against their caretakers at their natural home.


There are two parts of this list that get me the most in a shuddering chills kind of way -
First, is how many times i roll the scroll ball in the middle of my mouse to scroll through the whole list… it keeps going and going and going;
Second, I can’t imagine how bad it has to have been for a child who is removed from their home and placed in a foster home to commit suicide at age 12; how many 12 year olds commit suicide?
One is too many.
