Subject: RE: BS: Child of the System.....Ramblings
What Bill D said.........tragedy happens everywhere including right here in my little town of 5,000. We have a family here--the mother is severly mentally challenged (and physically ugly to boot). The father is also "challenged" but not as severely. He is just plain spooky. He checks out things from the library like "Human Genetics and the Plan for the Future"; carries them all over town and sits in the parks "reading". I have no idea if he really can read or not..........

They have 3 children that I know of; a little girl that the state of California took away from them because of sexual molestation by Charlie, a son about 16 who dropped out of school and dissapeared, and another little girl about 6 who has been in foster care here.

Last week the little girl was returned to her parents.......I know what will happen, so does Mr. Sorcha, but we are powerless to prevent it.

I'm so sorry Pat; it never stops hurting, does it?
