Foster homes and out-of-home placement have been portrayed as two
of the best things that have happened for the welfare of children.
This is only true, however, if the system is used by those who
direct it correctly. Most parents would be upset if they knew that
their children were being abused both physically and sexually
inside the system. Violence, racism, alcohol, and drugs are common
within the foster care and out-of-home placement systems; even so,
a wall of protection and silence has been built around the human
resource system. This has allowed the unspeakable to occur inside
the system-things that would put those on the outside into prison
for life. Most of us would generally be shocked to find out there
is very little external oversight of these agencies in many
instances. It has been a shocking thirty-year experience for author
William Andrews, working in counseling and with out-of-home people.
Over 60 percent of the children removed from homes in some states
are listed as unwarranted removals. This means that the removal of
children from a home is usually not justified. See America's future
by looking at its past and present; change is urgently needed.
