And Simcha will be speaking in MA on Saturday too :)

I understand having the law in place for when abuse really is occurring but I wish that nurse and teacher could have talked rationally about what kind of family you were, what's been causing the scratches and decided that it wasn't worth reporting. What heartache you must have! I feel bad when my boys have bruises all over their legs when we go to the doctor, I can't imagine if that doctor would claim we were abusing them. And to think of how many innocent children actually are being abused and neglected that never gets reported. It's a tough situation. I hope it's all over now since you're writing about it. HUGS!!

I think I met Janine at a birthday party this Fall. She had 15 children (I think?) and was awesome. Wickedly funny and down to earth. What a small world!
