Just peeking in, I was so hoping that they had found baby Shannon by now!
That may all be true, but we hear so many cases where CPS had been called again and again for supspected abuse and/or neglect, and they reported nothing was wrong. Then, the child ends up dead. It's sad. I definitely wouldn't want their job, but also, it seems like something has got to change.
And you never will hear of the good they do. It is all confidential.
For 1 bad case you have 200 good cases.
"We're appealing to the public in this area, Brown Street, Wynn Road, if they've seen any suspicious activity or someone carrying a baby we ask that they would give us a call."
ITA! In the hospital it is the same... for each patient lost there are hundreds saved... yet that lost one... that is the one that sticks.And you never will hear of the good they do. It is all confidential.

Search efforts included 8 K-9 teams on the ground and helicopter assistance from both Jackson and Calhoun County. Local residents are urged to remember that helicopters will be in the area late into the evening as part of the continued search effort.
Sheriff’s Offices from several surrounding counties, Team ADAM, an extension of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the FBI are actively assisting with the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of baby Shannon.
Yes, being a case worker is a very hard job. I had a roommate after college that tried to work as a case worker for almost two years before she quit and became a teacher. God bless those dedicated case workers that work for the welfare of the child.
HRS, now known as DCF, use to take children away from their parents just based upon allegations. A daycare worker reported a friend whose 4-year old had a bruise on her leg, and her child was taken away from her by HRS. She and her husband fought the system with the help of her boss and my neighbor, John Ostalkiewicz, who later ran for one term as a Florida State Senator.
In 1996, Florida State Senator John Ostalkiewicz called for a full-scale investigation of the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services after hearing testimony from parents and experts, all of whom told horror stories of child abuse investigations mismanaged by the state agency.

Topix, I never said they were legitimate sightings, that's why I didn't link.
But up until now, that's all I had seen.
So rumors...which are not allowed here?
