    • @pixied1028
      @pixied1028 Před rokem +1

      This video made me wonder because teachers are mandated reporters, why did she ignore obvious bruises from an adult hand? I realize it fits the story. Are they only mandated reporters some places or across the USA? I am from Illinois where they are.
      Again, ppl i know this is a video the teacher not asking fits the story of the song. I just feel had she reported it the child may not have died. Teachers can be heroes when they report, get a child out of a potentially fatally abusive home, saving their lives.
      Please tell me had u seen her same dress, sad looking, bruises and probably a poorly packed lunch as well you would report her mother? Thanks for being a hero even if there are times u are wrong as you said the kids it saves matters. Once its sorted out the truth comes out of the innocent ones. Thanks for all you do.

    My momma survived this. Her father never went to prison tho as he was a hero since he served in the navy. Had medals n whatnot. He went nuts tho n mom was his punching bag. Worst yet was when she fought back she was the one who got arrested even at age 11. Time were messed up even then. But she never let anyone keep her down. She even ran safe houses for kids out of our homes. Said she always wished she had someone to turn to n wanted to be that person for other kids. She is a true firecracker n a free spirit but has a heart of gold n I'll never forget her lessons

    "Anyway" (great video!!!)
    "In My Daughter's Eyes" (one of the most beautiful songs ever written, IMHO)
    "I'm Gonna Love You Through It" (another wonderful video, but might need tissues!)
    "Broken Wing"
    "Independence Day"

    My brothers and I grew up in the 60's and 70's, back then child abuse was considered a family thing, but the authorities would become involved if you were starving your child, if they were beaten so badly, they had to go to the ER or like in this case, the child was beaten to death. Back then we kids didn't have rights, if we told a teacher what was going on, our parents would be called which led to an even worse beating, so we kept quiet.

    I was an adult and child protective services social worker for Alabama for 25 years. I didn't have any in my caseload die on my watch, because I got them out in time, but I remember 2 cases while I was on call that I had to respond to where the kids died. I'll never get them out of my mind. I didn't know about them till that night, but I still blamed myself for not knowing earlier. Wasn't my fault, but I just felt so bad about it. I've been retired for 12 years now. After doing that job for 25 years, I was exhausted, plus, I developed MS during it and stress makes MS so much worse. I still have nightmares about those 2 kids I couldn't save. I say this, parents, LOCK UP YOUR GUNS AWAY FROM KIDS, AND ALSO, DONT SLEEP WITH YOUR LITTLE BABIES IN THE BED WITH YOU. 1 child (2 yo), died from gunshot from his 4 yo brother. They were playing army and the gun was loaded. In other case, a 6 week old baby girl smothered because her parents put her in bed with them and one rolled over on her in their sleep. Both cases were terrible accidents that could have been prevented. So I dream of those sweet concrete angels. Thank yall for your reaction. May God bless you always. ❤❤

      @robinhatcher8021 Před rokem

      @@sallymcmurray949 Yes it does. I have had so many folks say to me that they didn't know how I did that job. My answer is always the same: Our clients need us to be their voices but I don't know how I did it for 25 years. Now that I'm retired, I can look at the full moon and smile because I know I'm not on call anymore. I always ended up being on call during a full moon and for anyone who doesn't believe that a full moon doesn't effect human behavior is DEAD WRONG. I was a dementia specialist/trainer for mental health and that was one thing we trained on. Since our bodies are made up of such a great bit of water, just like the moon controlling the tides, it controls our behaviors in the same way. I'm sure you noticed that plenty of times too. Thank you for your service. ❤️🙏

And i said yes i am ok. And he looked me in the eyes and said no youre not ok so he got me ro tell him. And i am glad i did. Because almost immediately after that i was taken out of that home.

      One google search could have told you that or one where you find zero news articles about it or any charges or even a murder trial so I echo the person above about the need to research what you read on the internet.
      Her niece is still alive and her sister, I believe, if I remember correctly, is a successful CEO and businesswoman. Unless she retired by now since these rumours/lies and gossip have gone on so long. Sad indeed.

    It is a heart breaking song Every child deserves to laugh play and know the joys of childhood. Parents who cannot be a decent parent should not have children, or should give them up so hopefully they can find a family who want a child desperately and who would give the child the love and guidance it needs.

      Yeah, I can’t believe those rumours/lies and gossip are still being spread. It’s not true.
      Have a nice day. 😊
