Edwin Hall kidnapped, raped, and murdered an 18-year old Kansas girl just over one year ago. Today he pleaded guilty and offered that he thought the girl was twelve and had nice legs. This man was removed from his adoptive home as a teenager after threatening harm to his adopted sister.  Why? Because there is a mental and emotional disconnect. If a person is unable to connect with their mother and father, unable to feel connected to other people in the world, there is no sense of decency necessary. There is no understanding of decency. Learning the standard expectations of society is like learning a foreign language without having any expectation of needing to use it in the future. Even if the individual is able to recite the rules of appropriate language, there is no internalization behind it. Considering my son was removed from my home after threatening to murder our entire family, and considering a few years before that he pulled a knife on his social worker and attempted to feed my two-year-old a large assortment of his own medications, I think I have a right to be concerned about it. This could be my kid in the news ten or fewer years from now. It is my greatest fear.

In the second case, the home invasion in Cheshire, CT happened exactly one year ago today. A mother and her two innocent daughters were raped and murdered while the husband was severely beaten and left for dead in the basement while his house was set on fire. It was a terrible crime committed by two men. One of those men was adopted as a child, and his parents claim that he was always "distant" and "unconnected". The word for this is Reactive Attachment Disorder. It is the pre-cursor to sociopathic behavior. It is real, and it has a preventable cause. If there is one study I would like to do during my lifetime, it would be to research how many of our jailed criminals had a history of being placed into foster care, adoption, or other situations where they were separated from their biological parents.  These criminals were not necessarily born bad or even born different. It is their life circumstances that have contributed to their behavior. And it is our society that allows those life circumstances to exist.

Money is tight. I spent a fair amount of time shopping online for my books. I need to make some firm decisions soon. I really need to either have the books or have them ordered and paid for by the end of the week. And I will. But it didn't happen today. The price turned me off. I did get my physical taken care of, and it came in at just over $150. Not bad. I need to go back in two days to get my TB test read. Itsn't it amazing that we can lock up one person with TB against their will because they are a risk to society? Risk comes in many forms. I would suggest that parents who abuse and neglect their children and then give birth to four or five more should be stopped just as fast as one TB patient who might infect a few others. An interesting concept. The father of my adopted son had nineteen children. Every single one of them was in the care of the state. The boys mother was sixteen and he was her third baby. Should they be allowed to continue? If they had TB instead of unwanted babies, they would be stopped to protect the innocent.

Well, on to bigger and better things. Tonight I will be planning the rest of my week and reading Later in Life Lawyers. I plan on going to bed by ten and being out of bed by 8AM. 7 came too early for me today. I need to adjust more slowly.

Young, Homosexual and Murdered

From Child Evangelism Fellowship, the world's oldest, largest, and most successful child evangelism ministry (and yes they are Reformed/Calvinistic!) we see the solution: the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Child Evangelism Fellowship Videos

Folks, we have to get the gospel of Jesus Christ out to children. It is now legal to proselytize children in to homosexuality in public schools (gay clubs, gay pride month, gay is great sex education classes, etc.), which means that soon it will be ILLEGAL to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with children ANYWHERE (child experts all basically agree that it constitutes improper indoctrination, brainwashing, child abuse, etc. EVEN WHEN PARENTS RAISE THEIR OWN CHILDREN UP IN THE FAITH!)

And incidentally, kids like Brandon McInerney - who viciously murdered an innocent human being in cold blood, an abomination in the sight of the Lord and a violation of the Ten Commandments given to Israel through Moses and the universal covenant given to all mankind through Noah - need the gospel of Jesus Christ as well. Remember: God only destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah with fire and brimstone because of the abomination of homosexuality, BUT HE DESTROYED THE WHOLE WORLD WITH THE FLOOD BECAUSE OF THE ABOMINATION OF VIOLENCE AND MURDER. 

The Three Step Salvation Plan

By Steve Schmadeke | Chicago Tribune reporter

11:31 PM CDT, July 3, 2008

A federal jury in Chicago awarded $4.2 million Thursday to a West Side couple whose infant was taken into protective custody for more than 8 months after two Chicago detectives allegedly "lied" to state investigators, the couple's attorney said.
The city denied that the two officers had acted improperly and argued that their actions played no role in the decision by the Department of Children and Family Services to place the 6-month-old girl in foster care, according to a Law Department spokeswoman. She said the city is disappointed with the verdict and reviewing its legal options.
On Nov. 15, 2005, the owner of an in-home day-care center called Jose L. Duran and his wife, Evelyn Torres, to report that their 6-month-old daughter was crying uncontrollably, according to the couple's 2006 lawsuit. Hospital X-rays revealed their firstborn child had two broken arms, according to the complaint.
DCFS launched an investigation and contacted Chicago police. The suit states that the two detectives investigating the case incorrectly administered polygraph tests to the parents and then did not fully disclose the results to DCFS. Torres was given the exam in English although she requested Spanish and her attorneys argued that the police withheld other information, leading DCFS to place the child in protective custody.

Their child was returned in September 2006 after prosecutors dropped their petition to declare the girl a ward of the state. Jurors deliberated for about 12 hours before returning the verdict Thursday afternoon, the couple's attorney said. The child, now 3, was awarded $2.5 million. Her parents were awarded $850,000 as were the family's attorneys.

It's never an easy decision to report suspected abuse or neglect.  I'm quoting from the following website in the hopes that it might help someone make decisions in the best interests of a child.  Legally people in some professions are obligated reporters of child abuse and neglect.  Morally all human beings are obligated to protect children.  

http://www.helpguide.org/mental/child_abuse_physical_emotional_sexual_neglect.htm

Some signs of child neglect:

• Clothes that are dirty, ill-fitting, ragged, and/or not suitable for the weather
• Unwashed appearance; offensive body odor
• Indicators of hunger: asking for or stealing food, going through trash for food, eating too fast or too much when food is provided for a group
• Apparent lack of supervision: wandering alone, home alone, left in a car
• Colds, fevers, or rashes left untreated; infected cuts; chronic tiredness
• In schoolchildren, frequent absence or lateness; troublesome, disruptive behavior or its opposite, withdrawal
• In babies, failure to thrive; failure to relate to other people or to surroundings

A single occurrence of one of these indicators isn’t necessarily a sign of child neglect, but a pattern of behaviors may demonstrate a lack of care that constitutes abuse.

It's the line that says the following that really disturbs and angers me.

"Because of that, home-school families should be willing to submit to more oversight, perhaps in the form of occasional visits from social workers."

First of all, there seems to be some confusion as to Tyler McMillan being home schooled at all. "The teen began his education at Greenville Christian Academy and then attended Trinity Christian School." Both of these schools are private schools in North Carolina. So was he homeschooled or wasn't he? I guess the writers of the article thought lets assume he was home schooled and use this to attack all home schoolers.

Then we have Sean Paddock who was only 4 years old, obviously not school age.  Also, Sean Paddock was adopted. Which means there was some sort of Government agency involved, and I do believe it's THEIR job to make sure the adoptive parents were giving the child a loving and caring home. So please attack where attack is necessary instead of attacking ALL home schoolers and suggesting we need Government eyes watching us by way of social workers.

So basically 2 children die at the hands of their parents, one who was too young for Kindergarten and one who attended private schools, and it's used to attack home schoolers. I read somewhere, this question, posted by another home school parent and I have to ask the same question myself.

When a public school student dies at the hands of a parent no one suggest they should increase the oversight of public schools, so why do they use these tragedies to harass legitimate homeschoolers?

The above video features Rhonda Vincent and Rebecca Lynn Howard performing what has quickly become a favorite of mine.

We live in a very trouble world, as you may have noticed, and the very base unit of humanity is under attack. We have mothers and fathers who act only as machines for reproduction, expecting to enjoy the act of creation and to dismiss the created. Families are the beginnings of civilization, the very root of our communities. Without the basic family unit, we have no communities, and thus no civilization.

I heard the Dolly Parton/Sonya Isaacs version on XM-14 last night on my way home from Church. Being tone deaf, bluegrass is the only music that I can actually pick out and enjoy. (Or maybe Souther Gospel just sounds like everything else and thus I reject it). As you will see from the lyrics, it tells the story of a harden father made low by the death of his wife. I have to wonder, how many homes now experience a set of hardened hearts...hardened to the word of God, to the love of God, to the grace of God. And what does that do to the family? The children, I mean.

What drives love but God?

What drives compassion but the mercies of God?

When this world finally rids itself of the awful burden of a loving God, what will become of the children? Who will take care of them when their loving, and many of them God-fearing, grandparents and parents are gone. From whom will the children learn compassion and to be led by the heart instead of the wallet or the survival instinct? What about the love for one another that is derived from being in a family?

Doesn't a family teach children about love, security and responsibility? Doesn't the family show the nature of the relationship between God, the Church, and us?

Do you realize that in 2005 nearly 1500 children died from child abuse, but some researchers say that about 50 to 60% of children deaths by abuse are unreported?

In the song, the father is pictured as a drunk and angry man, with the usual sin of gambling. He wasted the time that he had with his children, and railed against the wife's submission to Christ. In the end, it took the words of his dying wife to bring him around. That is not always the case for parents who need humbling. And if it does happen, how solid is that person anchored in the Church?

We have to remember to pray for the families, not just those 'in Church' but all families as all share the same responibility, whether they know it or not. I would hate to stand in front of God and give account to the Judge and Father of us all, on my example that shoved my children from God. I would hate to think that my life hardened my children from God or that I allowed them to do anything that they wanted just to get them out of my hair, pushing them into sin. So pray for the children and the families.

Here, first.

Go here. I know that this is old, but go here too. And here

Written by Ira & Charlie Louvin

A house, not a home
Was the picture Satan painted
For sweet little sister and me
Our daddy would frown
While mother was prayin'
His heart was so hardened
That he would not believe

In anger he'd swear
His voice cold and loud
His Sundays were spent
Out with the gamblin' crowd
I've never seen my daddy
Inside a house of God
For Satan held his hand
Down the path of sin he trod

Not long ago
Our circle was broken
When God called on mother one night
In a voice sweet and low
Her last words were spoken
Asking our daddy
To raise her children right

The angels rejoiced
In Heaven last night
I heard my daddy pray
Dear God, make it right
He was smiling and singing
With tears in his eyes
While mother with the angels
Rejoiced last night
While mother with the angels
Rejoiced last night

"You dirty f***ing slut, I'm going to slit your throat if it's the last thing I do".

Threat issued by a 35 year old Canberra woman to a neighbour who looked after her two eldest children. The mother has now been hauled before a court of law on child neglect charges.

Evening all. I'm PC Dixon of Dock Green. I suppose it all started last year when I went on my holiday to a quiet fishing village in Portugal called Praia da Luz. Roughly translated it means Beach of The Blue Lamp. As you know, my real name is Jack Warner, and my brother Mark Warner, owns a holiday complex in Praia da Luz, and as the holiday season hadn't really got under way in May, he let me stay for free by the sea.

At the time and place and date stated, I was munching a sardine sandwich in the Tapas bar. There was a quiz going on, and in spite of the noise from the 9 people sat at the next table I could just about hear the questions, and was doing quite well. That is, until the last question, "Where's Madeleine?", only those sat at the next table knew the answer to that. I eyed up the cute blonde cuddling the cat.

It appeared that Madeleine was missing from Apartment 5A. The parents were claiming that they had left 3 young children under 4 years of age Home Alone. I joined the search teams but I couldn't find the parents, during this time they were home alone.

Now, I'm just an old fashioned plod on the beat. However, I know my history and have read about the great Portuguese detective Cristóvão Colombo who sailed across the ocean and found America. Perhaps he could find this little girl?

According to the McCanns, Madeleine was abducted. And, on the night in question, a witness called Jane Tanner claimed she saw a man with a bundle in his arms. "I've got a theory about that", Colombo told me, "I always wear this grubby mac. But, on that night I spilt coffee down it, and took it off and bundled it in my arms to take it down to the laundry".

We discussed the case for awhile, and just when I thought he was wandering off track, he said: "There's just one thing that bothers me, sir". I liked his overly polite manner. "And what is that?", I asked. "The prime suspects are consistently inconsistent with their stories".

Some of you will remember the pre-decimal currency in Britain, and that a sixpence was known as a tanner. I will leave you with this line from a nursery rhyme:

"Sing a song of sixpence a packet full of lies"

Good night all.

I urge you not to take the  "I'm glad that it is THERE, and not HERE" attitude. Do not allow yourself to slip into complacency merely because this is not as much "big" news, as it was back in March. Know this. Whichever way the ruling goes will have an impact upon the homeschooling community at large, and we must remain watchful that it does not damage the rights we now have, that were won at a large cost to many families. You can read more below.

 Homeschool advocates fight for parental rights
Oral arguments heard to decide fate of California educational choice

Posted: June 23, 2008
10:12 pm Eastern

© 2008 WorldNetDaily

Oral arguments were heard today in the 2nd District Court of Appeal in Los Angeles, with the fate of homeschooling in California at stake.

As WND reported earlier, the court's decision four months ago to compel two homeschooled children to attend a public or qualifying private school effectively stated that parents held neither a statutory right nor a constitutional right to provide homeschooling for their own children.

After much public and political outcry, the appeal court agreed to revisit its prior ruling.

Michael Farris, chairman and co-founder of the Homeschooling Legal Defense Association, was one of many attorneys from several organizations urging the court to reconsider, and he presented the day's final argument.

"Anybody that claims they know which way the court will decide would be wrong," Farris told WND.

"The judges asked very hard, pointed questions," he said. "There was no indication that they thought their prior ruling was wrong."

Specifically, Farris said, the judges asked why they should permit homeschooling when California changed the law to withdraw it from the statutes in the early 1900s.

Attorneys advocating homeschooling argued that when California in 1967 added the singular word "person" to the list of those that can operate a legitimate private school, it opened the door for homeschooling. "If a person can provide education, if one person can operate a school," argued the attorneys, "then why not a parent?"

"Their questions were about the 1910s; our answer was from the 1960s," Farris told WND.

Furthermore, said Farris, "I argued that the California constitution requires the state to encourage all education. It's the court's duty, rather than banning education, to encourage it."

He also urged the judges to take into account the thousands of people who have implied from the 1967 law that homeschooling is permissible "and not willy-nilly overturn that practice."

An estimated 166,000 children are being homeschooled in California, and their parents and advocates have expressed concern that the court's original ruling would leave parents who educate their children at home open to criminal truancy charges and civil charges for child neglect.

Some grounds for that concern may come from the appeal court's first ruling, where it said the trial court had found that "keeping the children at home deprived them of situations where (1) they could interact with people outside the family, (2) there are people who could provide help if something is amiss in the children's lives, and (3) they could develop emotionally in a broader world than the parents' 'cloistered' setting."

Brad Dacus, president of Pacific Justice Institute, a parental rights advocacy organization involved in the case, told WND earlier, "We are looking forward to this opportunity to defend the thousands of families who are making sacrifices to teach their children at home. The state should be applauding, not threatening, these families," he said.

Though he expressed concern over which way the judges would decide, Farris told WND, "We hope that the court reverses its decision and restores homeschool freedom to California."

She has written about a mother breaking down due to unbelievable stress.

And that got me thinking about this.

Children die. Children die at the hands of their parents.

And I'm sure everyone is sickened to the pit of their stomach when they hear about children being hurt or worse by their parents.

We shake our heads in horror and disbelief.

"How could this happen? How could someone do this to their children?"

And our first response is to want to tar and feather the parents.

Understandably so.

But while we're screaming for blood, maybe we should think about something.

What could we have done?

In Tracey's heart-breaking story (and I hope to hell it's a hypothetical) the mother speaks out. She's at the end of her tether (understandably) and talks to someone she trusts. The person she trusts is ethically bound to report what the mother says.

And in swoop the authorities, scaring the living crap out of a heavily stressed woman.

Bleh, read the story yourself at Tracey's. Any attempt I make in recounting the story dilutes it and it should be read in its entirety.

I will concentrate on the sickening loss of two children and the emotional and physical neglect of four other children.

Neighbours state that they "thought something was wrong"

No shit, Sherlock. Naked, hungry children?

Why didn't someone say something? Someone must have said something.

The authorities "knew" of this family?

Why the hell didn't they do anything?

This has obviously been an ongoing problem.

Two babies are dead and four children are scarred for life.

I'm sick to farkin' death of hearing "not enough resources"

There have been enough "resources" to remove children for far less than this.

Sometimes from people that have had ludicrous allegations made against them.

Yet nothing was done about this family?

Two babies died a putrid death.

Dead for nine days.

Fucking sickening.

What sickens me more is this could have been prevented.

Despite what the authorities say.

I would like to thank everyone for their comments. This is such a complex issue and there are no hard and fast answers to the problem. There are more than two victims in this horrific matter. For whatever reason - reasons we will probably never know - a woman starved two babies to death. But before we start screaming for blood, let's consider the father. He HAD to know something was wrong, and I apologise for being graphic here, but two dead infants would have stunk something wicked after nine days. People, not just in this family, but the neighbourhood as well, stuck their collective heads in the sand. Instead of coming out NOW and telling all the tales about the family, why didn't anyone drop over and offer to lend a hand? It's a pretty sad testament to society as a whole when this mother only has the internet to cry to.

Now, I can understand that the topic was meant to be the McCanns hijacked Amber Alert scheme. However, surely the McCanns can appreciate that the journalist was only doing his job and leaving no stone unturned in the search for truth?

Gerry McCann's complaint was that some of the journalists were going over old ground. And, the McCanns wanted to move on. However, there are benefits of going over old ground. An example might be the gold digger Heather Mills who struck it rich with Paul McCartney. Seriously, though, it is to be expected when there is unfinnished business to attend to.

Yesterday on the 3As forum somone posted a link to a BBC News Leicester article from 4 May 2007, which was interesting in itself to see how the case was first reported before all the McCann spin took a grip. And, the question was asked whether the PJ were negligent. It might be remembered that the McCanns were quick to criticise them for not doing enough. That is, they were reluctant to go off in search of the so-called abductor. But, the available evidence pointed towards the involvment of the McCanns in the disappearance of their daughter.

As one 3As poster has observed, there are two victims in this case. And, it is not the McCanns themselves. Rather, it is Madeleine, and the freedom of the press.

I have brought up two children who are now adults. We were a two parent family and there was always one of us at home and not working. Now I have been bringing up my nine year old boy alone as a single parent since he was three.

What a different experience.

It is a full time job; and if I was to have a nine to five job, even locally, around the corner from my house, no matter how I arranged things, it is clear my boy would suffer immense emotional neglect as well as a considerably impoverished way of life.

I am finding it seriously difficult just trying to find enough time to work at home from my computer. There just never seems to be enough time to either get on with a decent amount of work, or to spend adequate time with my boy.

How on earth does this ignorant bunch of morons who comprise our government think any single parent is going to be able to bring up children and somehow magically fit in a full time job as well ?

Of course, it is possible to have that full time job and farm out the children to some dipsy child minder. But even if the child minding situation is as brilliant as it can ever get, it will still impose enormous problems on the child and parent.

It is hardly surprising the whole country is complaining about the dysfunctional youth of today; a vast and increasing proportion of who are becoming addicted to drugs, alcohol and crime.

It is the inevitable consequence of the Government structuring an economy which forces both parents out to work, effectively ensuring virtually the entire nation simply abandons all it’s children.

The culture of fecklessness and disinterest in getting a good job and getting on in life is encouraged and nurtured by children been left with childminders for most of their childhood while their exhausted parents go out to full time jobs, only to come home to a mountain of domestic chores for which there is not enough time to deal with.

The nation’s children are simply being abandoned - left to their own devices while their parents slog it out on the treadmill of Gordon Brown’s poisonous economy.

Taxed to the hilt, working for half the year for absolutely no pay whatever to feed the insatiable coffers of Gordon Brown’s greedily officious taxman.

And where does all this money go ? Why, to an army of nasty little bureaucrats employed in ever increasing numbers by the government to interfere in every part of our lives and spy on every citizen so they can be controlled in the minutest way.

You can’t even leave your dustbin lid slightly raised without the Government spies noting it down in minute detail and prosecuting you to brand you with a ‘criminal’ record. I mean, what a surreal joke to describe someone whose dustbin lid is slightly ajar as a ‘criminal‘ ! What kind of obscene Orwellian nightmare has this Government brought to this country?

2. Only parents with a secret to cover up would claim that there had been a break-in, when the truth is that there was no break-in.

3. Only parents who knew that Madeleine was not out there, would stay in whilst others were outside searching for her and leaving no stone unturned.

4. Only parents who knew what happened to Madeleine would complain that the police were not doing anything, when in fact the police and PJ were conducting an investigation into a missing child report, and conducted a search of the immediate area. It follows that the parents sought the police to follow a false trail. They may have found this frustrating, but the parents would have been under suspicion from the start of the investigation until they could be eliminated. They haven't been.

5. The police investigation was effectively hampered when Clarence Mitchell tipped off the McCanns that they were being monitored by the PJ.

6. Metodo3 is being paid £50,000 per month to lay false trails away from the McCanns door.

7. The McCanns are innocent of all charges until it is proved that they are guilty.

8. The majority of the public believe that the McCanns are guilty of something, even if it is just child neglect.

9. Madeleine is missing.

10. The neglect is a red herring to bury the fact that the McCanns know exactly what happened to Madeleine. When Gerry McCann was aghast at the irony of the same sentence for neglect as manslaughter, he could not contain himself. But once the ball was rolling the McCanns decided to roll with it. It can only roll downhill. It follows that they are not on high moral ground.

Taking as my starting point, I believe that Madeleine's disappearance is the McCanns legal responsibility.

Whether it is believed that the McCanns killed Madeleine and then covered this up by disposing of her body, or whether it is believed that the McCanns are simply guilty of neglect, it comes down to the same thing. And that is, making the McCanns accountable in a court of law.

I don't agree with trial by media, if it is instigated by the media. However, in this case the McCanns have chosen to play the media from the outset. They have argued that the media is useful for publishing photos of Madeleine, but a careful analysis shows that the McCanns have been riding the media tiger to put forward their defence and try and garner sympathy and support for themselves personally.

I think this approach is suspicious. It would tend to suggest that the McCanns main agenda has not been about finding Madeleine at all.

Before the question had been widely asked, it appeared as though the McCanns were saying: "Not me, Guv".

However, nobody else is responsible for leaving Madeleine and the twins unsupervised. Recently, we had the case where a small child was being supervised by an adult. And the child was killed whilst being ridden on a mini-motorbike on a pavement. It was not responsible parenting. The adult is facing prosecution. Whilst we can have sympathy for him, nevertheless, it remains he was responsible for what befell the child. He had made the decision to take the child on the motorbike, he failed to take into account other road users could not reasonably foresee that a small motorbike would suddenly appear to come out of nowhere and crash into their vehicle.

The McCanns cannot reasonably argue that it was safe to leave 3 children under 4 years of age unsupervised.

At the very least, I would say justice for Madeleine includes a prosecution for child neglect.

It might be recalled that the McCanns have issued statements claiming that the legal advice they have received states they have done nothing wrong.

Either the McCanns are lying again, or their hotshot lawyers are really incompetent.

More importantly, they are likely to face charges for manslaughter and fraud.
