    I've had a child since birth who is now 4 and fate is still up in the air due to dumb bureaucracy. This is ridiculous childhood is only a moment in time. The emotional trauma from being in the system sets these kids up for failure.

    I have worked child welfare for 25 years as a worker and trainer. I see children who are so traumatized by the system and the families yet they are returned to abusive neglectful families and are not prepared for adoption through good lifebook work and counseling. Then the adoptions disrupt because the children are no more ready for the adoption than many families are. Changes need made in the systems.

    these children need GOOD homes not be thrown around the system till they're drug infused parents that abused them get there acts straight. Protect the children first and when they get old enough to no better then they can meet there biological parents if they want to. LETS GO GOVERNMENT DO SOMETHING RIGHT FOR ONCE!!!!!!

    Foster children have rights too. Please stop making so many kids live in limbo for years, not knowing where they belong.
