"Kane" wrote in message om... (Greg Hanson) wrote in message . com... THROWING CHILDREN INTO CLOTHES DRYERS. Where the heck did THAT come from? From the article that you artfully dodged by snipping, where else? That's about the extent of your cleverness in responding with lies. Sad, idnit? Kane says I'm sick? Why THANK YOU. You are welcome. You and the clothes drying person have a lot in common...the idea that a child is just a possession and its feelings and safety are secondary to your own desires. How's that couch doin'? Sometimes acetone will break a seal. Try it on your ass. Reforming CPS from the inside? It would be interesting if you, or The Plant, or The Doananator, or Ol' Leaky would respond to what was said instead of making it up as you go along. I said, positive change, and case by case issues such as Dan Sullivan and others like him nail the system with, worker by worker, supervisor by supervisor, district by district. CPS ought to hire Sullivan. And listen to him. Or do you think YOU could reform CPS best? The experts who have studied the agency culture Tend to have, universally, their own little ax to grind and bitch to pitch. have said that meaningful reform from within is impossible. Isn't it odd though that child abuse is decreasing? Must be the stars. You answer your own question... scroll down a bit and see. They've had MORE than TEN YEARS after they were told to put various avenues of redress into place. Liar. They were NOT told that many of things NOW being claimed as "musts" and "have toos" where such. Times up. Nope. You don't know what you are talking about. Time for law suits. Stop drooling on the keyboard. The Federal Judges in IL and across the US agree. All of them? That one supervising a Consent Decree is steamed. I love it when you dipwads think everyone can read your mind. Look THAT up in the DSM-IV, bubbah. CT and a few other state CPS agencies are now getting more FEDERAL guidance thanks to their abject ineptitude. Actually it's because the bar was set so high that NO state could have passed all elements being evaluated. It isn't a punitive process (except in the minds of child and family hating self deluding twits)..it's a learning process for both the states AND the feds. The rules have changed. CPS was faulted for abusing their authority and extending themselves into matters that should not be their purveue. The rate of child abuse... probably hasnt changed all that much.. except in defination. bobb The problems with the states tend to lie more in The Problem, than in the states. The problem is much bigger than estimated. The solutions do not reside sufficiently in the mandates IMPOSED ON THE STATES BY THE FEDS WHO ARE AT SOME REMOVE FROM EACH STATES ACTUALLY POPULATIONS AND THEIR CHALLENGES. Bureaucracy is about THE WORST way to actually get something done. Could be. Depends on what that something might be, now doesn't it? A few less assholes like you wandering the countryside looking for a couch to plant their asses in might reduce the problem quite a bit. I think you should be added to the hunting season, with a bounty paid for each head. Big Brother only does WORSE than parents. No, not really. Just not up to the levels that some parents present. What has been learned by CAPTA and ASFA and followup studies is that you can't stop child abuse by waiting for the abuse to happen. Prevention is, as is being reinvented (child welfare workers at line level been saying this for years, and being ignored for the most part), the real solution to child abuse and neglect. The problem that presented was NOT met by the feds, as per usual. THEY shifted the emphasis from family support systems (CAPTA) to child safety. ASFA was an attempt to, instead of swing the pendulum, as had been the case before, balance child safety and family support services. In theory it was not a bad idea...problem was the FEDS, as usual, failed to see what the states was telling the....kind of wishful thinking that the problem was simple and based on criminality. In theory.. it was a bad idea. Just look around, we are living with a lot of bad ideas. Some we're stuck with... like taxes.. because the never go away. Then there are those who want to maintain the status quo only because they held such firm convictions they would certainly look like the ass they are if they suddenly took a right turn. The problem, of course, was about mental incapacities of various kinds, intergenerational child rearing information shortfalls (You ****ers don't know how to raise children safely), and DRUGS, of the non legal variety. Alcohol problems didn't go away either. The Reagan years saw (yes, that far back) huge cuts in public funding of rehab programs and went to enforcement (The WOSDs), thus taking monies away from family support systems and services. Hell, publically funded youth centers were entirely wiped out, apparently on the grounds teens don't vote...and it was one of the most successful programs for reduction of teen crime, pregnancy, drug use, that have ever been tried. The FEDS need suing for screwing up, not the states, dummy...but suing does nothing but remove MORE money from programs and OUT OF THE POCKETS OF THE PUBLIC. The settlements come from taxes, nitwit. Child supervision, stay-at-home moms, and responsible parents.. do not cost money. There are tons of community resouces, public and private... many already in place such as the schools, church based programs, and commnity progras such as the boy scouts that could, and often do work, in place of the state. bobb Oh, wait. YOU don't pay taxes, you just want some of the money. Kane |

I'm particularly taken with the one on children not being allowed to play in the clothes dryer. Wanna bet that a child hasn't been hurt by being put in a clothes dryer by a parent, or allowing a child to play in the laundry room unsupervised? I wonder how closely these children were being supervised, and if maybe a larger warning label would have tipped off the stupid parent that children that young should not be left unattended?

They love cliimbing inside or things.. even cardboard boxes and the like. Yep. Age appropriate exploration is something I scream at people about when they try to stop children from doing it....BY SPANKING AND OTHERWISE PUNISHING THE CHILD. How many became hurt or injured from a dishwasher? Not too many because parents with brains don't let them climb inside and pull the door shut behind them. Nor do they, like the mom that decided her baby was wet and the clothes dryer would be just the thing, turn the damn dishwasher on with a baby inside. How many people know know knives are sharp? Actually I've found people generally to be pretty stupid about knives, and other tools. Maybe true.. but don't make it my problem. I've cut myself all to often and that ain't your problem either. How many even read the labels on breakfast food boxes (except to pass time), care, or even undertand labels or any sort. People are dumb, aren't they? I mean look at these ngs.
