The story of Mary Ellen, a terribly abused child, was used as impetus to start child welfare services. But how many people remember that Mary Ellen was not living with her natural mother? Mary Ellen's abuser was a fosterer!

That is amazing Linda! It goes to support my wife's research though. http://bacraig.iweb.bsu.edu/CPS.html this is her paper titled raising your child is a privilage, not a right! Everyone here should find it interesting.

Doctor Lazovitz who wrote the Mary Ellen Wilson book
used to run a child protection center doing
sex abuse exams for CPS.

He wrote a sequel book which says it has
more stuff about the bio family's pleas
for custody in court. It sounds like they
might have found a treasure trove of
more documents about Mary Ellen.

She is viewed by caseworkers as
a poster child, but most gloss over the
fact that she was being abused
by somebody more like a foster/adopter.

And while she got PUBLICITY and the
interest of rich people who followed
her story like a soap opera, and
financial help as a "project", some
of the same rich people owned
coal mines where children worked
and died in real numbers.

CPS came into being by a bill sponsored by Vice President Walter Mondale when he was in office. It was voted into being by Congress and the Senate in the 60's.

It has since grown into the biggest evil monster ever created by government, and let loose on an unsuspecting population without any higher entity to answer to for violating our civil rights with immunity.

Sounds odd that a government entity is born out of the federal government, yet the federal government has no say in how they kidnap, lie, coerce and destroy the lives of American citizens. However, in the infomation booklets given by CPS, the federal government, CPS, lawyers, judges, police and caseworkers can all be sued.
