IMO, The mom did the right thing. That child deserves much better than a mom that stands by and lets this happen.

She will probably end up getting the shit beat out of her by him and honestly she really deserves it. What kind of parent would leave their kid with the state when given a choice? That's terrible, but the kid is probably better off in the long run if he can get into a decent foster home.

Classic signs of abuse. When I reread what I wrote I knew that someone was going to take this stance...just figured it would be someone more ignorant than you.

Your avatar and location are great!
and now, back to Dick Clark's New Years Rockin Eve..."It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Originally posted by davbrucas View PostMom brings her 8yr old son into the ER for cough and fever. The real father isnt in the picture and she has been remarried for a year. The step father isnt present. While examining the child, bruises are found in various stages of healing on his back, butt and legs. Mom was asked about these and she said he fell off his bike recently. The boy did not want to talk about it. So CPS and LE get involved. Turns out this isnt the first time CPS had been called about this family. Stepfather was beating child for whatever reason and mom didnt intervene. Mom had no job and stepfather paid all the bills. CPS took child from home and father to jail. CPS would not give child back to mother unless she could guarantee his safety by leaving this man's home. She had to choose between her son and her bread winner. She chose the latter and bonded him out of jail. I think she is a piece of shit, but I just wanted to see what you guys thought. As far as I know, the child is still in foster care.
Child gets a new home with (hopefully) some well needed parenting/nurturing.
Mom gets the loser, who starts beating on her after the child is gone and has nobody to abuse.
Don't know how you deal with these vermin on a daily basis Dave.

I don't have kids, but if I did & the dad/step-dad decided to beat on them I'd have to kill the guy. Period. Don't get me wrong...I'd do something like engineer a brake failure or anything that I could get away with, but I'd damn sure kill someone for putting their hands on my kids!sigpic
