In the 1950s, there was no Child Protective Services. I remember being on the train in New York and seeing a sign: Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. What about children? I wondered. What about me?
the irony, protect animals but not children. but, on the other hand, i think they saw children as belonging to parents, the family...when is there too much involvement ocer the lives of others? there are however, situations where there is always outside intervention necessary...always extreme, "how could this even be concieveable" to have happened?

“We gossip about God in all sorts of ways. When we tell people that they have to wear the right clothes to church, or listen to the right music, or not see certain movies to be a good Christian, we make God petty and small. When we say that He favors one group of people over another, we make God mean and heartless.”

“Love isn't a state of perfect caring. It is an active noun like struggle. To love someone is to strive to accept that person exactly the way he or she is, right here and now.”
