Wow. Although
I have no time to stay and discuss the issue; I would love to see a thread started about the 400+ children in Texas that have been ripped from the lives they knew.
It is ALARMING to me that the state is seeking to
terminate all parental rights (from what I have read).
Prosecute crime? Yes. But aren't we also prosecuting the victims of what they were taught all their lives without outside influence to the contrary? Girls who became mothers just past puberty and knew no other way?
And what of the implications of taking
all the children from their parents (not just the ones in immediate harm's way) because we don't like what is taught?
It isn't that far removed from the idea that children could be taken from homes that aren't in step with mainstream society, is it? Think on that and hug your child.
So, what's the verdict? Is Texas right or wrong to remove all of the children and seek to terminate the parents' rights to these children?
What would you do? Are you sure? What path is set for the future????
Again, I wish I had time to discuss the issue, but don't.
Hopefully, some others will think and post on this. I would love to read what you all have to say.
