[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 165664, member: 3419"] I was just about to post this but see that you already have, Tiapet. That is so sick. It makes me wish that hell were a real place. Maybe jail will be close enough for those parents. Better yet, tie them up to a tree for two nights just to see what it feels like. I didn't recall the 2nd story. Argh. The birth parents must feel so awful. Why would the adoption svc place these kids with-her? Just because they were in foster care with-her to begin with-and it was easier with-the paperwork? What sort of a homestudy did they do? Didn't she have a husband? That is way too much for one person to handle. The article said she lived in a tiny farmhouse. There is no way that many kids could fit in there and not get in ea others' way and end up fighting. It's ludicrous. The books the minister wrote are surely influencing other people as well. I believe in freedom of the press but there's got to be some way to counteract that sort of cruelty. I, too, agree that your past does not dictate your future. Many of us had incredibly rough upbringings, but here we are, trying our hardest to do our best, to learn new tools, to network with-other parents in the same situation. An abuser who creates an abuser is no excuse. I doubt that came out in the homestudy. This whole thing makes me want to strangle people. [/QUOTE]
