    My son has brought over a school friend for the first time. When it was almost time to leave, she told me she was afraid and would get hit for not having gone straight home. She then poured her heart out. I called the cops, told them she wasn’t going back there. They came, made a report and left her with me. It was supposed to be for a week or so till they found fosters but it ended up being 2 years. Don’t be afraid to say no I’m not sending that child back to hell. If you can’t provide a safe haven, call everyone you know but do something.
    Rest in peace sweet boy 💐

      That would go up to budgets for Human Services not growing with the need, hence we have no foster homes.

And there's been cases where the adopted parents abuse or killed the children.

      When the teacher found out that he was getting food out of the garbage and knew he was hungry. That should have been the time to report to the authority. The school should have asked him what was going on at home but to do that you have to get him comfortable to tell you. Many people do not know how to talk with the children and nobody step up to let him live in their home.
      If someone at the school or if they had good people that they know would take the child into their home.

MD's and the pregnant individual should have the final say on when and why a d&c needs to be performed because of an ectopic pregnancy or rarely the attachment could be to another organ and those are not viable pregnancy's and is not the business of a bunch of old men (white, one black) on the SCOTUS.

I'm pro life but I don't stop caring about the life once the pregnancy is complete. Those in government wanting to rule on these issues are doing it for control over women and power, with the likes of JD Vance who believes that no couple should be allowed to divorce, even when extreme physical assault is involved. Thiel who is that billionaire who funded Vance's campaign is the one who is against no fault divorce and said that women's should not have been given their rights!!! This is all disgusting.

    I dont understand how a person can be intentionally cruel to any child. Certainly not their own. We make mistakes as parents. Sometimes big ones. But to intentionally cause harm and to do so without letup is horrendous and unforgivable.
    His suffering has ended. Poor baby.

    Too bad a person can’t just. make a citizens arrest or get the school administrators to call the police about the. Situation. This good lady did her best to get help for him.. It’s just so sad! I hope the law got justice for this child!

    How the hell does this happen? If you think a child is being starved then report it. Why was this step mother allowed to put a stop to this child eating?

    Every school staff member MANDATED to report even suspecting concerns to Child Line. Each of these people who interacted with him, with the exception of this lady, had a hand in this little boy's demise.

    I saw this story but I did not know that poor boy has since died.
    I feel so bad for that woman and her colleagues who tried to help him - she - and they are far worse than heart broken....
    There was ZERO excuse for the "authorities" to neglectvthat boy.🤬

    That was nice to give him food but that should have included a call to child protective services. Especially when the “step mom” frowned upon giving him food. It’s not acceptable to see a child getting food from trash cans and not report it.

    This is absolutely heartbreaking, knowing that this precious child died a tragic death. As he Rests In Heavenly Peace, I just pray that God will keep a hedge of protection around every abused child and adult, and hope they find the courage to seek help and report it.😭💔❤️‍🩹❤️👼

    A child's taking food out of a garbage can has to be a very heartbreaking thing to witness and no one could doubt that child is in trouble.
