Checking back in with an update.

November 30, 2006

I just wanted to let everyone know that I called the Department of Human Services earlier today and told them everything I know about the conditions that Marsha’s kids are living in.

The social worker took all of the information down and said that she will look into things right away. She asked how long the kids have been living that way and I told her that I wasn’t sure — I had just heard about it a day ago. I also said that I wouldn’t be surprised if it had been a while because the mother is known to be neglectful until things reach a crisis point. The social worker is going to call me back and let me know what is discovered and what is going to be done about the situation.

When I find out something, I will let you all know, too.

Thanks to everyone for your input about this; it helped me make the right decision and I really appreciate that. I’d also like to thank my original “source” for telling me details of the situation (you know who you are… I sure love you, my friend.) Maybe if we all keep focusing our positive energy in the right direction we can improve the lives of some little kids who — as bratty as they can be — never did anything wrong except be born to an awful, incredibly selfish mother.

More again soon…

Definetly glad to hear someone is looking into the children’s living conditions!

Didn’t get to read the other post before this one was made, but I’m glad you made the call specially if the situation is as bad as I sense it might be.

Yipes. I read from the top down & started with the Friday Feast ’cause I’ve been away. You definitely did the right thing. Maybe Bumblin’ Bill is right & Foster Care is the best thing for these kids right now. After all Bill & his wife were the one’s who raised Marsha & look how she turned out…

I’ll keep those poor kids in my happy thoughts. They didn’t ask to be born into any of this, huh?
