3.A Kind and Just ParentA Kind and Just Parent
from Beacon Press
Price: $15.30

Customer Review:
This is a story of children, real children, still soft inside, and yet with a force field that can put off both the kindest and the most brutal attacks one can inflict.

I must say that I was really excited to read this book, which appeared to closely parallel my struggles. What I got, instead, was a sociologists' opinion about why adoption is a bandaid for a massive wound.

from Vintage
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
There's one word to describe this book: depressing. That doesn't mean you shouldn't read The Lost Children of Wilder, but it's so upsetting that the story will stay with you long after you've finished reading the book. In some true stories, you have the expectation of hope, even a small sliver, that... more info

Speaking as a child abuse defense attorney, life would be much easier if social workers would learn the mistakes they can make resulting in false disclosures of child abuse.

The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) is more than just standardized testing.

11.Free the Children: A Young Man s Personal Crusade Against Child LaborFree the Children: A Young Man's Personal Crusade Against Child Labor
from HarperCollins

Customer Review:
There are parts of the book that are clearly written in the immature style of a teenager (colloquial speech) and parts that have been edited so much that they seem to come from an entirely different person. The overall book is choppy in terms of style, although the organization is excellent.

Restoring the Lost Constitution did a pretty good job at establishing the Presumption of Liberty which the courts ought to be employing when rendering their decisions.

I've become an almost compulsive reader about our juvenile justice system and foster care since it seems the vast majority of the students I teach have some contact with at least one.
