I know we are a victim friendly website, but I'm going to say this - there is a reason that this child was in foster care and not placed with any family members on his maternal or paternal side. This speaks volumes to me. MOO, IMO
Yes, I so wish that people could put the child first. Just because the child is YOURS doesn't mean you have to have them back!
Wait. So....
Jordan hurt his leg, seriously, in some mysterious incident.
His... parental unit.. was frustrated by this, so she beat him, and then he seized all night, and then she left him in the woods to die?
OMG.
She's what DP is for. What the hell.
ETA - I'm not a big DP supporter. I am taking exception today.
I want to puke. Totally agree with you. How horrible. I hope the initial blow rendered him unconscious and he only had images of his foster family after that.
And not forgetting the chin injury for which he needed stitches that she mentioned when he was missing.
I would be stunned if he got stitches. If he did he must have been with someone else when he got injured.

Again? Once more, you simply can't prevent it.
This has just crushed me.
I am happy he knew love and joy. I am PISSED that it was taken from him.
For what. Why did she even want him back?
Benefits? Possession? Revenge?
Who knows.
I was feeling sorry for the father and his family until I read about him being high and needing to "sleep it off". He really didn't deserve to have his son, either.
Yes. Just wow.
Jordan’s
paternal grandmom said she wants to do everything to make sure the unborn is with the father. I guess that answers the question who the father is.
That may answer who THEY believe the father is, that doesn't mean they are right. This woman just murdered her first child. Pretty sure she's also capable of cheating on the guy.
My condolences to the foster parents who showed true love for that baby, who can form complete sentences, kept him clean and fed. They were truly his family.
I'm so grateful that Jordan spent most of his life with them.
These are the victims I truly can feel sorry for, the others I just can’t, sorry.
Yes. This is where my sympathy is going.
I hate thinking of how confused and lost he felt leaving the Foster parents home into his ‘mothers’. Quiet bedtimes probably rocked and sung to sleep were the norm for his entire life up until then. So incredibly senseless.
Yes. This is what will keep me up at night. While I am getting my little dude to sleep at night. Thinking of him suddenly with an uncaring stranger just overnight. It's terrifying. I can only imagine how scared he was. I'm sure he was terrified.
I'm with you. They raised him! They were his family.
There was no reason to remove him. I'm sorry but the best interests of the child should take precedent! Visits with bio parents are fine. Just let the baby remain in this safe and stable home, please.
I have a cousin with 5 kids now trying to get them back for the second time (no abuse, just meth). I wish she would just let her sisters adopt them as they have lived with them most of their lives.
Just do what is best for the child, screw what the parent wants. I'm so tired of "but he's MY SON." That shouldn't be the priority!
