93. Michele Stanley's Parenting And Foster Parenting Page As a foster parent and Guardian Ad Litem, I have spent the last several years florida s Guardian Ad Litem Program florida s child advocate program. http://users.southeast.net/~mstanley/parent.htm

As a foster parent and Guardian Ad Litem, I have spent the last several years seeing the "child protection" system close up. I have known children that have been through unimaginable horrors within their families of origin, only to be further abused by a system that, in my opinion, doesn't work. There are no easy answers. The number of children in alternative care is increasing dramatically. The number of foster families is steadily decreasing. Privativing foster care has become the new panacea, but like most things, "if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is". As George Carlin so aptly put it "It doesn't take a village to raise a child. It takes a Mother and a Father." The "system" abuses the children, the biological families, the foster families and the adoptive families. And God forbid you actually adopt one of these kids!!! I have known children who were abused before birth (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Effect), children who became psychotic, dissociative or had attachment disorder. Following are some sites that I have found and used concerning kids and parenting: Foster Parenting Sites: Foster Parents Page Foster Parents Newsletter National Court-appointed Special Advocates Association - Help a child.
