The Condition of Charlie

  When Charlie was brought to us for a visit at the DSS office, he had a scab on his thumb that is an obvious burn mark.  He also had a rash on his butt that was so bad that it bled when I wiped the poop off.  The inside of his right ear is covered in dirt and scabs.  Not a single part of his body smelled like he had been washed in any recent time.  My son has never had a diaper rash a single day in his life, before the CPS agency stepped in “to protect him”.  I expressed my concerns to the worker and she made plenty of excuses, but did not give any valid answers to my concerns.  I also had it out with the worker over the fact that nobody in that agency has once used my son’s name, but insists upon referring to him as “the child”.  When the worker took the baby out of my arms and put my youngest son into the car, my older two children burst into tears and proceeded to cry for about 20 minutes.  I asked the supervisor, Jeffery O’Donnel, to please hurry up with finding the family counseling that he offered me, in order to help my older two children cope with what is being done to our family at the hands of their agency, and he said he’d try.  What is being done to my family at the hands of this agency is absolutely unacceptable.  I am now going to begin calling television news stations.
