Smile,

This is so terribly terrible. And for we Mothers who have had ill children, fighting every day for their very lives and to keep them from any harm at all, it's just more than I can hardly stand. Not that I don't fight for my healthy one, but you get my meaning...

As far as the drugs go....I do think they play a major part in abuse today, but I also think this: In my parents' day for instance, I think there was much child abuse going on. Part of that was that they didn't call it abuse then, and partly because if it was abuse, nobody talked about it. And I don't think drugs were really the issue then. I just think that our population has increased to such a degree - and with more people, more problems.....A lot of factors...Poverty being one also. And alienation. Especially from family. You know, I think it was harder to "misbehave" (such a silly term for such a horrible crime)when towns were small and family was watching...

Well, the only thing to do now, is to report all of it, watch and tell....

I'm thinking of little Kelsey.
