CASA volunteers look out for the interests of abused children

Half their effort is just a farce. Half care and do good and the other half just hound people who are just trying to be good parents.

Drive into some bad sections of town and you can see hordes of children whose only parent is a current or past drug dealer or prostitute and the spend most of their time totally unsupervised. How many spend their time there trying to save those kids from an almost certain life of failure?

No, many of the choose to hound the horrible parents who do things like spank their kids. Thanks to the new politically correct way to parent, parents who spank are always at risk of being caught and having their kids put in foster homes. Kids can refuse to do school work, swear, kick and hit sibblings and piers, but God help a parent that tries to paddle their litlte behind.

Oh I understand there is a difference between abuse that leaves a mark on a child and a spanking that doesn't , but somehow I think the people who made those rules have never tried to spank a resisting teenager. Of course they believe good parents don't have to, because they've never done it.

I've got news for them, when your teen comes home from school with brusies from football, no one calls that abuse, and no one use to arrest teachers when we were kids when they swatted us if we acted up in school. So why are these folks threatening good parents who are just trying to stop their kidsfrom becomming home grown terrorists by spanking them in public when they deserve to be punished?

I'm sure their little darlings never slammed doors, hit sibblings, or threw dangerous objects when they got mad, but if they had perhaps they might have a different opinion about "talking to them" when they misbehaved.

The system needs to be changed. The Casa representative was there works for the DCFS, they are there everyday. Its a job not a volunteer position. Edelman Courthouse needs to be shut down. My child was taken because the county said that she slashed her 14 year old brother neck with a knife. It didn't happen, my girlfriend was not charged but my child was still taken based on no evidence. It is now the official policy of the Judges in Los Angeles to take things out in civil proceedings to any black person who happens to enter their Courtroom. Ask yourself when was the last case that was thrown out in the Edelman Courthouse. The reason why the newspaper industry is dying is that you keep printing lies instead of the truth. I hope everyone who works for the Edelman Courthouse and the family dies of the swine flu.
