A child is the responsibility of conscientious Parents, not the State.

Website dedicated to defending parental rights against encroachments of the state upon the upbringing and care of children.  Only in cases of gross abuse should the state intervene on behalf of the child.  Abortion, for example, in which a parent takes the life of an innocent fetus, is an instance where prosecution of the parent and practitioners should be pursued.

General Overview

National Racket.  Hundreds of thousands of children are taken wrongfully from their parents and family guardians and put into state custody.  State gets money for each child taken.  Division of Child Services gets money for each child adopted out.  Care under foster families is twice as bad as natural homes on average.  The same kind of thing happens with disabled and elderly.  Bottom line: break up the family to bring them into State control and fear, while making a buck for the middle man.

        "The Constitution of this republic should make special provisions for medical freedom as well as religious freedom. To restrict the art of healing to one class of men and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic."
