on any given day you read about such as this happening.you think foster care is such a great thing childerm are just as abuse in foster care as they are such as these kids were.when are people going to wake up and see that the system is broken and needs fix.dont get me wrong there is some wonderful people out there helping kids but cps to many times have been caught loving kids to death
THe sad thing is THE CHILDREN will PAY forever. I agree with the person that INSTANT ORGAN DONORS. The waiting list for those needing organ transplants would be MUCH shorter if we did this.
Ok, so I kinda agree with you, but I believe that can be a productive member of society again. They all have kidneys, lungs, hearts, etc. Living donors? Yeah, why not? You want to make this as much of a positive as you can. How many people need the organs? Instant donors!
