...I'm not familiar with the beginnings of child protective services. To my mind, if Alabama pioneered it, its probably because the incidence of child abuse is greater there. But what do I know?

As I said elsewhere, my wife works in this field for Metro and I've listened to horror story after horror story. And I've simply never had any patience for people who hurt children or women. Less than scum in my book.

In this case, for this to have gone on as long as it has, it means that he was sodomizing the oldest child (16) when he was 6. And the youngest (13) when he was 3. And when someone can show me proof that child abuse therapy works for the perpetrators, then maybe I'll change my tune. Until then, I say lock them up before they abuse again!
