The fight against injustice in different forms, as persecutions because of faith, gender, political believes such as refugees & human trafficking, has very much becomes my passion over the last few years.

PLEASE REPORT THIS CHILD ABUSE PROMOTING WEBSITE!!!–Report directly to webmaster

Here is an excerpt from the site: How come everyone today is too much of a pussy to smack their kids around? That’s what I want to know: why are parents afraid to beat their kids? When I was a kid and I screwed up, my parents beat my ass. We didn’t have a conversation about it. I didn’t have a “time out.” In fact, I’ve never even once been grounded in my life. What’s the point? Send your kid to his room and make him play video games and read comic books all day? Great idea, why don’t you take him to a psychiatrist while you’re at it so she can pull some disorder out of her ass to hide the fact that you’re a bad parent?

D’hanis, Texas– A Medina County constable is making it his mission to find more victims who may have been abused at an unlicensed home-run daycare.  Constable Stephen Duffy of Precinct 3 has been going down the only business strip in town, posting up these flyers that read, ‘if you have ever taken your children to Sophie’s at any time, give him a call’. Constable Duffy said, “We’d like for the parents to come forward, so we can interview the children and find out if anything inappropriate happened to the children”. Sixty six year old Agapito Contreras has already been arrested on one count of sexual assault of a child under the age of 14.  The alleged abuse happened at a home in D’hanis that Contreras shared with his wife.

Bill: “Protect Our Children Act”

Posted by Sandra On July - 21 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

 

caylee leiby.jpg

Dubbed the “Protect our Children Act,” the bill, among other things, creates a new crime of aggravated murder of a child with a sentence of life without parole. It also expands the existing crime of aggravated abuse of a child to include anyone who recklessly causes physical injury to a child under the age of 14. The law currently only applies to day care providers. And in what seems a direct response to the Casey Anthony trial, the bill would also create new felonies for concealing the death of a child and failing to notify law enforcement when the whereabouts of a young child is unknown for more than 24 hours.

The Children’s Defense Fund has just released a new report, “The State of America’s Children® 2011,” which paints a disturbing portrait of child needs across our country.  With rampant unemployment, housing foreclosures, homelessness, hunger, and massive looming federal and state budget cuts, children’s well-being is in great jeopardy. One in five children is poor and children are our nation’s poorest age group.  Child poverty increased almost 10 percent between 2008 and 2009, the largest single year increase since data were first collected.

New Law Requires Cross-Reporting Of Child & Animal Abuse

Posted by Sandra On July - 21 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

Go to fullsize image

State agencies that deal with animal abuse are preparing to share that information with authorities that investigate abuse of spouses and children. On Oct. 1, the law goes into effect that requires animal control officers and social workers with the state Department of Children and Families to share information on cases. “Statistics show us that when an animal is being abused in a household, there is an 80 percent chance that a child in the same household is also being abused. This bill sends a strong message that animal cruelty will be taken seriously in Connecticut,” North Stonington State Rep. Diana Urban, who pushed for the law, said in a written statement.

Emotional Archbishop speaks of ‘shame’ of Irish child abuse cover-ups

A visibly upset Dr Diarmuid Martin said he was “angry, ashamed and appalled” at the behaviour of his fellow churchmen following a damning report into abuse in the diocese of Cloyne in Co Cork. His comments follow an unprecedented attack on the Vatican by the Irish prime minister, Enda Kenny, accusing the Roman Catholic hierarchy of violating the country’s sovereignty by attempting to frustrate the inquiry.

THREE children who were removed from their violent, drug-addicted birth family went on to suffer a decade of horrific abuse at the hands of their adoptive parents after agencies repeatedly failed to help. The catalogue of missed opportunities was revealed today in a scathing serious case review, which orders both Cheshire East Council and Stoke-on-Trent City Council to apologise to the youngsters. Their emotional and physical torment only came to an end after the oldest sibling made one last desperate attempt to get professionals to listen and approached an independent reviewing officer.
