RE: The Danger of Mandatory Reporters
That's scary to be in the position you were in, knowing exactly what you saw unfolding. Thankfully you were quick enough to recover and explain aloud to call them off (with the crockpot).
Kind of disappointed you won't be writing for family protection anymore. I would've liked to see what else you could dig up. I understand though. Much love. :)
Thank you. I am really good at ferreting out information. When I came up with this idea last week, because I could draw from a personal experience, I wasn't prepared for what I was going to find as I looked into this. The mixture of anger and sadness after watching the videos tells me I am not cut out to watch hours on end of this. I am willing to see a story here and there, but saturating myself in it isn't healthy for me.
I will continue to support this cause, but no more deep immersion for me. I honestly don't know how the people who are working not only as the social workers, but the reporters as well can look at themselves in the mirror. The last straw was the video where the parents were recreational drug users, so they took their 3 year old daughter and THEIR doctor got the child hooked on drugs. Of course, I thought several of the videos before that were the last straw, and had about 6 more I collected to post but couldn't bring myself to write on this post any longer.
God bless you @practicalthought
