This makes me want to vomit in disgust.

It's nice to see that children's services inspectors and representatives suck all over.

This reminds me of a Book "A Child Called It." I believe is what its called, sort of the same thing. Its very sad some people have children and treat them this way, while others who would be great parents can not.

Great book, read it recently. The author, who was also the victim, wrote a couple more. I have them but I just haven't gotten around to reading them yet, IIRC they chronicle the rest of his life.

She certainly looks the part...

what gets me is this:
Victim A told how when she was a young girl her foster mother had fixed a sign to the back of one her dress to cause embarrassment in public. The message read: "This child is evil. Do not look at her or talk to her. She wets the bed and is an attention seeker."

HOW did no one get involved? No child would choose to put such a sign on their dress, and no good parent would have one placed. That's "call CPS" material right there, and get an investigation started. Did no one try to confront the woman after seeing that?

It becomes a psychological thing. They became so afraid of her that they just could not do anything.

I'd like to say she's getting her comeuppance but 14 years isn't enough.

I just can't believe they dealt with it for that long. I dealt with some of that stuff when I was a kid, but I would have either killed her or ran away.
