Happy Easter Austin and Isabella

Another Easter without the two of you. Austin I hope you're having fun today like you used to at our house on Easter. You were so excited every year hunting for the Easter egg's and alway's found more than the other kid's. The Easter Bunny was alway's so good to you. It's too bad your cousin Isabella never got to be a part of the Easter egg hunt's. For that matter, she never got to be a part of our family. Her REAL family.
I hope you're both being treated the way REAL family treat's their children and not like outsider's. The both of you deserve a good life and we will be together again. You Will know your REAL family whether DCYF or the stranger's you're with like it or not.
You will alway's be a part of our family and one day I'm sure you both will be reading my messages. Your entire family loves you both and can't wait to see you again. Your new cousin's can't wait to meet you also. We hope you're both well and don't forget, we're alway's here for you. We're not going anywhere without you. We can't wait for you to come home.
Love, Grammy, Grampie, your Mommy's and Daddy's and the rest of your REAL Family and Austin, your dog Belle

Foster children would be allowed to get clothing only from second hand stores SICK!!!

Foster children would be allowed to get clothing only from second hand stores | Michigan Messenger


Under a new budget proposal from State Sen. Bruce Casswell, children in the state’s foster care system would be allowed to purchase clothing only in used clothing stores.

Casswell, a Republican representing Branch, Hillsdale, Lenawee and St. Joseph counties, made the proposal this week, reports Michigan Public Radio.

His explanation?

“I never had anything new,” Caswell says. “I got all the hand-me-downs. And my dad, he did a lot of shopping at the Salvation Army, and his comment was — and quite frankly it’s true — once you’re out of the store and you walk down the street, nobody knows where you bought your clothes.”

Under his plan, foster children would receive gift cards that could only be used at places like the Salvation Army, Goodwill and other second hand clothing stores.

The plan was knocked by the Michigan League for Human Services. Gilda Jacobs, executive director of the group, had this to say:

“Honestly, I was flabbergasted,” Jacobs says. “I really couldn’t believe this. Because I think, gosh, is this where we’ve gone in this state? I think that there’s the whole issue of dignity. You’re saying to somebody, you don’t deserve to go in and buy a new pair of gym shoes. You know, for a lot of foster kids, they already have so much stacked against them.”

Casswell says the plan will save the state money, though it isn’t clear how much the state spends on clothing for foster children or how much could be saved this way.

Kidnapped Children-How to Vanish

Kidnapped Children

Did you know the British government kidnapped children? On one level How To Vanish is just a fun way to legally hack the system and try and beat the house. On another level, it can be used as a tool to save money and prevent money from being taken. At the most important level it is a tool to help people avoid the loss of fundamental freedoms and to keep families secure and free from forces that would separate them, including blackmail, kidnapping, and other serious crimes. I recently came across an example which falls into the last category.

In March 1998, a 6-week-old girl named Shannell Coppage died of malnutrition even though she had been regularly breast-fed by her mother in their Park Slope, Brooklyn, home. Her mother, a 21-year-old named Tatiana Cheeks, was arrested and charged in the infant’s death, prompting an outcry from women’s health advocates.
