What I received was a call from Olympia DSHS saying, "Don't you think younger couples should raise a baby?" Don't you think you should take advantage of your "golden years?" Hey 50 something isn't dead! That shouldn't stop me from raising my granddaughter's sister, especially when she is living with me. They were together, happy together, but CPS wanted the baby and they got her. Yes, the state will get the "incentive' to foster-adopt and the children will suffer as they are now "separated." I will be shocked if our governor changes anything to keep family's together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949272793553548917.post-67243514414321625402009-03-26T12:26:00.000-07:002009-03-26T12:26:00.000-07:00The need to serve the bureaucracy is what she is. ...The need to serve the bureaucracy is what she is. Citizens rarely get attention in her agenda. But I say that only because when I told her that the social workers had placed a child with a violently abusive drug and alcohol addict, she had a social worker call me to tell me that I should have gone to court. I did go to court, to watch them lie, and cover up abuse! Bottom line, her personality is that of one who believes that the system works. If it is a money thing, I would say that she would only cut services to families, and protect the salaries and benefits of her social workers. <BR/><BR/>I honestly don't think she sees anything wrong with the way the system works today. And that is sad, for the children of Washington State.infinite freedomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218407238712919077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949272793553548917.post-37440425686994667612009-03-26T08:57:00.000-07:002009-03-26T08:57:00.000-07:00So its more smoke and mirrors..I won't believe our...So its more smoke and mirrors..I won't believe our governor is hard at work on cps except maybe a way to fool the pubic into thinking she has done some monumental task and has "fixed" the problem. I believe she is looking to the future and is working on her image if anything.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949272793553548917.post-54669205226048218252009-03-26T00:42:00.000-07:002009-03-26T00:42:00.000-07:00Dear Senator Roach,I will not be holding my breath...Dear Senator Roach,<BR/><BR/>I will not be holding my breath waiting for our GUV to make any substantial changes regarding DSHS.<BR/><BR/>However, I will be waiting for her actions..for they will speak louder than any words she could ever speak.<BR/><BR/>CC TillettAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
