ALL PAGES FOSTER CHILD DEATH TOTALS = 5468
THESE
NUMBERS ARE UNDER REPORTED AS SOME
STATES
OPTED OUT OF SUBMITTING DEATH DATA.
THAT
MAY BE CONVENIENT FOR THEM BUT HARDLY
SO
FOR THE CHILDREN WHO SUFFERED BY THE LACK
OF
CARE OR NEGLEGENCE OF THESE AGENCIES.
HOW
CAN ANYONE CLAIM THIS SYSTEM IS HELPING
OUR
PRECIOUS CHILDREN WHO SHOULD NOT BE THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. SOME MAY BE POOR OR
NOT PERFECT PARENTS OUR CHILDREN LEARN FROM OUR IMPERFECTIONS. IN FOSTER CARE
THEY LEARNED ONLY PAIN IN DEATH. BEFORE
THESE KIDS
HAD A LIFE.
STOP STATE ABUSE OF FAMILIES
ITS FAILED ITS MISSION!!!
