These children need to be with family instead of with strangers who are getting a pay check. We have thousands of children that have been orphaned because the parents’ rights were terminated. If a child is in the system and has not been adopted out then these parents should be able to get their rights reinstated. Some parents are not fit or capable of raising their children however, there is almost always a close friend or family member who can take the children. Children should never be alienated from their families. Parental alienation and family separation can cause deep, lasting trauma for children. Every child deserves to maintain loving relationships with their birth family whenever possible and safe. The connection to one's birth family is not just about emotional bonds - it's also about identity, cultural heritage, medical history, and a fundamental sense of belonging. When children are cut off from these connections, it can impact their development, mental health, and sense of self

Children greatly benefit from having loving, supportive families who can provide for their physical and emotional needs. Family relationships, whether with parents, siblings, grandparents, or other caregivers, play a crucial role in healthy child development. Through these relationships, children learn trust, communication, emotional regulation, and social skills. They also gain a sense of security and belonging that forms the foundation for their future wellbeing and relationships

2-11-25 In Memory of Kimberly Williams who lost her battle to cancer at the time we were making this website. Always and forever in our hearts. One night I got a phone call from a ten-year-old girl who had run away from a group home, She told me that she had been taken away from her mom and she didn’t know how to contact her, she wanted to go home because this group home beats her. I didn’t know what to do because I had no way of knowing how to contact her mother and I knew that CPS would hide behind the confidential law so I contacted Mary Meining from the Children’s Ombudsman's office. Mary tells me that this child has a lot of mental health issues and is an irate violent child. I told her that I was concerned because she had no way of contacting her mom and I was extremely concerned for her safety because she keeps running away. Mary was not allowed to give me any information without a release from her mother. I didn’t know what to do so I was talking to a friend about this situation and she suggested we post it on Craigslist and see if anyone sees it. I was so surprised that I got a phone call from her mother a few days later. Kimberly was reluctant to talk to me because of what she had been through, however, she was very open and wanted to work with me. CPS told her I was someone that would hurt her case and she shouldn’t talk to me. Kimberly said, “You have done nothing to help me so I have nothing to lose”. Kimberly signed the release and it took me two months to get her home. Star was not a troubled kid that needed to be medicated, she just wanted to go home and was a tough cookie that was going to make their life hell. Star is now married with two children and is doing extremely well. I want to thank Heidi Fox for having Star contact me because I can’t imagine where this little girl would have been without my intervention.
