Craigslist Adoptions: How Hopeful Parents Are Turning to the Website to Start Families


Tracey and Dan Citron always wanted to have a baby. After six unsuccessful cycles on infertility medication, they decided to forgo IVF treatments in favor of adopting a child instead. In 2009, they settled on a Lutheran-based adoption agency near their home in Eagan, Minnesota, and enrolled in classes on a path to get their home-study approval in order to adopt. By 2010, they were "approved" and ready to make a match, when they realized they had a lot more work to do.

When ‘Elmo’ is falsely accused of child abuse, real victims suffer

The lovable Sesame Street brand has been hit hard recently. First, Big Bird almost wound up on the chopping block. Now, Elmo — or more accurately, the muppet’s doppelganger, revered puppeteer Kevin Clash — is still reeling from a bogus child sexual abuse scandal. A former paramour alleged that Clash sexually abused him, but by the next news cycle, the accuser had recanted his claim.

Prince Charles Provided Free House To Bishop Arrested in UK Child Abuse Probe


The UK’s spiraling child-abuse scandal has already reached Prince Charles once – he was a good friend of the children’s TV presenter Jimmy Savile who was hailed as an eccentric saint in his lifetime but has been unmasked as a predatory paedophile in death - and now the prince’s judgment is being called into question again, after it emerged that a retired Church of England bishop arrested yesterday by police investigating historic allegations of child sex abuse was given a free house to live in by Charles after the bishop resinged in disgrace having received a police caution for committing acts of gross indecency against a 17-year old trainee monk.

A former Tory Party treasurer has indicated that his solicitors will pursue anyone on Twitter who wrongly linked his name to false allegations of child abuse.

System-Suckology: What They Think You Need To Know




The news coverage regarding the recent attacks on the Gaza Strip by Israel has been skewed and ignored by the mainstream media.  This is similar to the problem that family rights activists face when dealing with a mainstream media that constantly bombards the normal people with pro-CPS propaganda, National Adoption Month fairy tales and a blown out of proportion look at the issue of child abuse and neglect while completely ignoring the fraud and corruption committed against innocent families and children by CPS Agents every day.

Who is doing the killing in Gaza? Noam Chomsky and others challenge world's media

Fortunately, for inquiring minds who want to know, we now have unregulated social media, including Twitter and Google +, where not only is the propaganda spewing from both sides of the conflict, but the people who are as close to the conflict as you can possibly get are tweeting about their plights and suffering, while tons of pictures that you will never see in the mainstream media are available simply by clicking on a currently trending #hashtags where you can read about such conflicts from the people who are caught in the middle of the firestorm.

Israel's Gaza Invasion Sparks Fierce Fighting With Hamas On Twitter, YouTube

Unfortunately for the Palestinians in Gaza, as well as the Victims of CPS in the UK, Canada, Australia and right here in the good ol' USA, etc. most of the good little sheep continue to choose to get their knowledge of current events in the world through the skewed and Sugar Coated Mainstream Media Propaganda Machine.  For the most part, people can't handle the disruption to their ignorant views of their perfect little world and simply don't want to accept the fact that fraud, cruelty, secrecy and cover-ups are an ongoing reality for the parents who are falsely accused of abuse or that the Palestinians could possibly have any legitimate beef with Israel whatsoever.

Most people would rather sit quietly in their beliefs that all is well and that they are well informed because they watch CNN or Fox News and/or read their local newspapers.  Therefore, the normal people are generally full of crap by keeping themselves tied up in their dark little caves while the Mainstream Media continues to use their knowledge of human nature against them.    


Meanwhile, in the west, babies continue to get stolen by a cruel and unjust child protection system that profits based on the number of kids in foster care, while in the Middle East babies are being blown up by rockets and air strikes.  The general public continues to support the side that the media tells them to.

Pictures from Gaza that you'll never see in the American News Media which wants to protect you from the truth

The truth is not always pleasant.

These pictures were taken from Google + 






I have been watching twitter and Google + feeds over the last hour or so regarding Israel's attack on Gaza. I am quite disturbed right now. After clicking links to news sources, looking at pictures from Gaza, which includes injured and dead children, I am convinced that the American news media is nothing but a sugar-coated propaganda machine which will never tell you the truth about anything that the powers that be don't want you to know.

Of course I already knew that, but there's nothing like hammering it in.

Psychiatry Set to Medicalize Hissy Fits

Psychiatry Set to Medicalize Hissy Fits


Every decade or two, the American Psychiatric Association reworks its Diagnostic Statistical Manual, or DSM, to try to have diagnostic categories reflect the current state of theory and practice. Given enormous evidence that we’re currently over diagnosing things and medicalizing normal behavior, many had hope that the upcoming DMS-5 — the fifth major revision — would show some restraint. We may see it yet — but not if we go down the track described in a post today by neuroscientist, blogger, and DSM watchdog Neuroskeptic:. It seems that the DSM-5 may include a new proposed “mood disorder” called “disruptive mood dysregulation disorder,” or DMDD
