The Child Abuse Industry - Mary Pride
|
|
Last year over one million North American families were falsely accused of child abuse. As a result, their homes were invaded by bureaucrats; dossiers were opened on them; their names were put in central computers, permanently on file; their children were asked leading questions and encouraged to inform on them. These were the lucky ones. The less fortunate ended up losing their life savings, their home, their children ... everything. Sound far-fetched? It's happening every day, right here in the U.S. and Canada. A network of federal, state, and local agencies is snatching children right out from under their parents' noses. This is the child abuse industry, and every year it threatens more and more families. Here's how it works:
These are just a few of the shocking facts Mary Pride has uncovered in this eye-opening study. If you are a parent, you owe it to yourself - and your children - to read this book and find out how you can protect your family from the child abuse industry. Before it is too late. Mary Pride and her husband, Bill, are currently active in the movement to preserve parental rights; they are also working with others to change child welfare legislation in Missouri. Mrs. Pride has also written The Way Home: Beyond Feminism, Back to Reality, and The Big Book of Home Learning: The Complete Guide to Everything Educational for you and Your Children. The Prides and their four children reside in St. Louis.

From the Two Cats of Kilkenny we learn that infighting is counterproductive. Let nobody say that North American bureaucrats are slower of wit than nursery children. Child abuse industry leaders quickly recognized that they had nothing to gain from infighting, and everything to gain from networking. As early as August of 1977, one of HEW's consultants approached the North Carolina Division of Health Services to "prepare a plan and develop an initiative to 'regionalize child health care' in response to the emerging national priority toward developing a child health strategy." Take note: at this point, neither the legislature nor the public had requested any such plans or initiatives. All we have is one lone bureaucrat making suggestions. Considering this, the North Carolina Division of Health Services response is suspiciously overenthusiastic: The Division of Health Services responded to this challenge by calling a statewide meeting of persons interested in such an approach. Interested individuals from pediatrics, obstetrics, social services, public health, health systems agencies, and other fields met in Raleigh to discuss forming a Steering Committee. Its mandate was to develop a plan and prepare a proposal to the federal government which would demonstrate that a comprehensive, locally developed service delivery system could be put in place ... Eventually, as a result of this demonstration project, the system would become statewide and embrace all children. All of a sudden, without consulting the legislature or the electorate, we have a "mandate" to develop a plan not only for the state of North Carolina, but that can be presented as a "proposal to the federal government." Absolutely everyone interested in children had a part in this plan ... except parents. Leaving parents off the Steering Committee apparently was no oversight. The Child Health Plan, when revealed in all its glory, included, "a compulsory 'health care home' for every child. Children had to be registered in one such 'home' at birth. If parents refused, they would be turned over to child protective services and threatened with losing their children. As the report said, 'in some cases aggressive outreach and even governmental intervention may be appropriate.'" The report doesn't mince words about what it means to be involved with a health care "home." The report says it will require:
Dr. Burton White of the Center for Parent Education was a staunch supporter of institutionalized health care program. Dr. White said, "Sending a new parent home with a six day old baby as we do now in this country is insane." Dr. White believed, to be effective, educators must reach the child at birth. He felt that ill-informed parents ought not be allowed too long a time to pass their value-system on to their children. He recommended management of the child by what he called "professionals" at age zero, with the parents acting as caretakers under the direction of the professional from age zero to two and one half. And then at age two and one half, he thought the approach should change with BOTH the management AND the service of the child being in the hands of those whom he called "professionals." So every agency would funnel in to the others. Abortion clinics could use the schools to publicize and promote their services. Social workers could gain "clients" by schools turning youngsters into informers on their parents. Conversely, social workers could force home schoolers and those with children in private school to enroll their offspring in public school. Psychiatrists could have a steady stream of clients referred by the schools and social workers, foster parents would have no shortage of children, institutions would have plenty of residents, and on and on. Naturally, lawyers and judicial systems throughout the country would gain an influx of business and spawn an entire industry of divorce-care lawyers. Various forms and examples of the bureaucratic, governmental meddling in family's private affairs, continues unabated today. |
