Knock on the door… and a child's world fell apart

Knock on the door… and a child's world fell apart

AS SHE sits in her sister's bedroom, nervously clutching what was once her favourite doll, Melanie recalls the painful childhood memories and the day her world fell apart.

For most children, tales of "the bogeyman" coming to take them away are the stuff of nightmares, but on 20 March, 1998, her worst fears were realised.

Note: Wow.

    As often happens, CPS removed kids from a loving home, well, in thier defense, at least the foster family didn't beat the kids to death as is often the case w/ multi-sibling placements
