Right now if I was a USA Citizen or a UK citizen Id be ashamed.
Ashamed at how children are being treated in these Places..
Places supposedly of the free world, of respect and of higher standards..
Right now I am worried about how Australia is going towards the same path, if we are not careful..
Tell me people , exactly how does sitting on a child's chest, whilst they are covered in a blanket, swaddled tightly like a baby, being yelled at, abused and sworn at, told to go ahead and just die..tell me people how does that sound to you as a good thing ?
Let me ask you a question, if someone was to suggest to you right now that we take your child, we wrap that child tightly bound in hot and heavy blankets, and then we sit atop your child , a heavy weighted man that weighs oh 6 times more than your child, and we make your child sweat profusely , and allow them no water , no toilet, in fact we allow them nothing , except to cry out for help, and even then they are abused for doing so, they are told repeatedly over and over how no good they are , how useless they are , how they deserve every bit of this...
And how it continued that way until they were gasping for breath and even then nothing was done, and then you realized that your child was dead............................
Tell me if I or someone else was to suggest doing that to your child what would your reaction be ?
One of absolute shock ?
One of absolute horror ?
One of absolute fear ?
Well trust me it is going on in the heart of the USA and other supposedly humanitarian places in this world.
Sometimes I have to wonder as the world progresses further with technology and life whether its doing more harm to our society than good. Certainly there is more crime and drugs than there was in my parents day or their parents day..Yes i know there was other things, diseases and so forth but surely there just has to be some sort of a respectful happy medium where technology and advancement in civilization meets.
Today I visited this blog
Today I was again upset.
Today I again questioned WHY ? why does this sort of horrific torture go on in this world ?
Are we reverting back to the dark ages ? Are we reverting back to a time of pure evil ?
Seems to me the answer is yes on both accounts.
You need to read this blog fully, read these posts about these children who died during so called Attachment Therapy or Holding Therapy.. read it and come and tell me you think that its perfectly ok to do that..........
Come back and tell me that you think that children with issues will actually get better whilst being held down and treated in a way that is lower than what some animals receive ?
Come back here and tell me that you think its ok to kill a child by these methods......
Ah well another *bad one* less in our society.....is that what you think ? is that how backward we have become ?
That we think that abusing children is ok in the name of *Therapy* is...
Truly tell me do you really believe this is ok ? or are you as MAD AS ALL HELL ?
Tell me that you think that someone like THESE people who MURDERED Little Candace Newmaker using this RIDICULOUS So called therapy were right in the head to begin with?
Personally I think it was the lot of them that needed this therapy not Candace - you can also read about this HERE and I warn you please have a bucket nearby, and a box of tissues (or ten)
As an excerpt from one of the above links:
Candace Newmaker led a sad and an unlucky life. She was taken away from her birth mother in North Carolina, allegedly because of abuse, and spent time in five foster homes before she was adopted at age 6 by a single woman, Jeane Newmaker.
The adoptive mother testified that the girl was extremely difficult to handle, had started a fire in her home and abused other children. She said she turned to Watkins as a last resort. The mother’s was the only testimony presented at trial that Candace had significant behavioral problems. Her teachers, neighbors, and even a catechism teacher, saw none of the problems reported by Jeane Newmaker. Doctors accepted the mother’s reports in choosing treatments and assessing progress.
So we have a child removed from her first mother for suspected abuse? and given straight into the hands of a psychotic SINGLE OBESE woman to adopt her
Anyone wonder why this woman wanted to adopt Candace ? I'll give you THREE Guesses !
I invite your comments -
Eta:
Found this on Wikipedia but its a matter of record in numerous other places..
A year later, Watkins and Ponder were tried and convicted of reckless child abuse resulting in death and received 16-year prison sentences. Brita St. Clair and Jack McDaniel, the therapeutic foster parents, pleaded guilty to criminally negligent child abuse and were given ten years' probation and 1000 hours of community service in a plea bargain.[7][8] The adoptive mother, Jeanne Newmaker, a nurse practitioner, pleaded guilty to neglect and abuse charges and was given a four-year suspended sentence, after which the charges were expunged from her record. An appeal by Watkins against conviction and sentence failed.[9] Watkins was paroled in June, 2008, under "intense supervision" with restrictions on contact with children or counseling work, having served approximately 7 years of her 16-year sentence.[10]
I've Bolded and put in italics the relevant section I want to discuss...
How does a woman who is a a pediatric Nurse, and a single woman, allowed to adopt a child, and then through HER and ONLY HER taking that child to a psychiatrist within just months of the adoption, resulting in going to a $7000 - for two weeks treatment resulting in The child's death get to serve no time and then worse still get to have her record expunged.........
To what ? go and adopt another child again ? only to turn around and indirectly kill it ?
Not only should this woman have gone to Jail for the crime she committed but she should never be allowed to adopt a child again, nor be a pediatric nurse taking care of vulnerable children.
It amazes me how ALL these people involved in this adopted child's death, were not on trial for murder.
I do not understand why this practice of Attachment Therapy and all the other despicable things going on like Trading of Adopted/fostered children is not immediately made 100 percent illegal with serious jail time penalties given for those that continue to do it.
It makes me unbelievably sad and sickened to know that this time of *treatment* is still going on.
These people that practice this, and those that abuse their children, adopted , fostered or biological are not worthy to be called human beings, they treat children like this because they can, because children are innocent, trusting and unable to defend themselves against these people. IT is no different to men who beat women, its about power, its about control, its about THEIR low self esteem and their inability to behave as a human being.
But yet people seem to be forgiving of this, they seem to think that children must be way out of control and need harsh measures..Why is that ? why are people prepared to be more understanding of this sort of behavior ?
The reason children these days are out of control, doing things that were not done in *your* time is because of how busy everyones lives are, people dump their kids in daycare or with sitters, they don't spend time, quality time with their children, they don't speak to their children properly, they treat them like a commodity rather than what they should be, a precious human being to be loved and nurtured.
We need to put our hands out and say STOP. We need to start raising our children with care...
We need to change the direction in which the world is going, its not getting better, its getting worse every year, and I am frightened for the future that is being shaped for my children, and my children's children in years to come..
It starts with us.
