There are many cases where the parents, relatives and child
care workers are accused of abusing children. Many are legitimate cases
but too many are because of false accusations. If he accusation is false
many Child Protective Services agents will help fabricate cases against the
accused.
There are also many cases where parents are wrongfully accused in
the death of a baby. Many of these parents are in prison. There are
cases where doctors cover their malpractice by accusing the parent of shaken
baby syndrome. There are many cases where other diseases are overlooked
and shaken baby syndrome is used to convict a parent of a crime that
never existed. There are also cases where parents are sent to prison
for not saving a child's life or contributing to a child's death through negligence
when the real culprit is the negligence of EMS or others.
There are also cases where the states abuse children. These are cases
where children are sent to adult prisons for adult crimes. There are also
cases where children are sentenced to death. (17 year olds are children
and as far as I am concerned those under 21 are children.)
It seems to me that many children are left with families that should not
have them and that many children are taken away from families that they should
be with. Part of it is money. Someone with money can fight the
system where a person without money can not fight the system. The free
legal help does not do the job. The sad fact is that you get what you
pay for. If you pay nothing the odds are that you will get nothing.
This section of the Castle of Hope for Lost Souls is going to address the
problems of child abuse and parent abuse. I will have links to other
sites and web pages that are a part of the site that will show
what is happening and where you can go for help if you find yourself in a
child abuse situation.
