It is heartbreaking to read the continuing nightmare of neglect to foster children from the Child & Family Ministry.
I feel a particular ache in this regard because my mother, may she rest in peace, took in foster children on occasion. One at a time, not nine. And she provided the most loving care and attention imaginable.
Of course, she didn't have to deal with this government's indifference.
The Ministry has been a rotating graveyard for politicians for at least a dozen years now.
And, while the cement is being poured and the monuments clutter the landscape, Children & Families continues to be underfunded and understaffed.
The priorities of this administration are clear.
It's unfortunate that their vision is so muddy.
I would humbly suggest that your Mother left this a better place than how she found it. How many chest thumping, big voice in a hollow drum Politions can claim the same?
ReplyDeleteThat's a very kind thought.
