What's so frustrating, no matter how much help is given, no matter how much money an agency has *obviously enough to offer gift card bonuses!*, kids are still killed daily.... I can't comprehend. And I don't know who killed little Semaj, who i just noticed is James spelled backwards, but anyway, someone did, and someone put her under the couch. IMO, I don't think a kid did that.
Find that murderer and arrest them!
As to the debate on what part of blame society, govt etc holds when individuals choose to bring innocent babies into this world, with no means to raise them.... welll IMO the govt has created an entire society that is literally enslaved to the govt. My eyes were really opened to this with the Relish Rudd case. Generations of families who depend on the govt to survive. No cases of someone needing temporary help, nope. Families that are raised to fraud the resources and feel entitled to the govt takign care of their every need, from food, clothing, housing, childcare, medical care... refusing to work or to educate themselves! They fraud the programs designed to educate them to they can get a job! Taking the college money, signing up for a semester, then dropping out and keeping the money. I don't know how they don't get caught, but they don't!
Look at the case with Erica Parsons.... missing for YEARS, and the family continued getting govt assistance as if she was alive! They had murdered the child, and went on with their lives. Disgusting.
This has NOTHING to do with being poor either! I come from a long line of poor people. All hard working people! People that ironed and washed clothes for others, mowed lawns, worked gardens, cooked for the rich, picked gallons of berries to sell, learned trade work, manual labor... each generation wanting better than their previous generation. From grandparents on both sides with no more than 7 grade education, there are numerous college graduates now. Being poor is no excuse!!!
