I think we really need to change our orphan or fostercare systems because the way we work with vulnerable kids up till now, has not been very helpful. What if we intervene in the lives of the children we seek to serve by placing them in the most priced thing they long for: a loving and understanding family to call their own. I think we would prevent all the pain and abuses and give them a sense of belonging to a family. What if we listened to the real emotional needs of these children as Greg Dollar says "we listen we listen with every cell of our body from our toes to our head we listen and we listen"
What if we never give up we stick with them and respect them. What if we build a community of love and support around them. Don't you think that doing this stuff works?Place them with willing family members if availabe that's what we need to do with our our most vulnerable kids.
all I'd say is let's never give up on them let's wrap community around them and let's just love them as they are.
