Most definitley sarcasim on my part. During my stint with King County I worked at a rehab facility and saw first hand the manipulation of our legal and services systems by the clients that passed thru. On a number of occasions children were put in harms way because of the rules set by public agency managers. In this case a baby is dumped like a sack of garbage and by the time all is said and done those responsible will probably end up with a slap on the wrist. I agree we have a horrific problem with drugs and am very aware of the damage that can be done to a person, family and the community by people making bad choices. But personal choice and responsibility are what keep the majority of us from being in the situation of your sisters Ex.

Linda and I took in foster kids at the farm for years and it was very rewarding in most cases. What killed you was when a baby would come to us and stay for a year or two till the mother would "get her life together" and the State would give the child back to her. Like having one of your own taken from you and really hard on the child. We would try to keep track of these kids but often couldn't. Some of these we know ended in ruined lives for the child, a very few had reasonable outcomes.

What I feel should be the punishment for those responsible for throwing away this baby can't be published here. I have a great fear this child's troubles have just started.

I would guess there are no sites, but then, I've never been up there, this is based on my common sense, which doesn't hold much water.
