This week I had to remove 3 kids (3,4 AND 5) from their parents because their house was absolutely filthy! I didn’t bother me to take the kids away, but what is making me sad/angry is that the state has returned the kids! You see here, they remove the kids in cases like this for 48 hours and come back and see if the parents have cleaned things up. Well they did…in a way I guess, according to our detective. But painting over human feces on a wall isn’t really cleaning things is it? My only hope is that every onefollows through and they prosecute the parents like they say they want to. If not, enough of us who saw the conditions are vowing to keep an eye on the parents and maybe we can catch them again and someone will wake up and do what needs to be done before one or all of these kids end up dead!
