A generation ago it would have been prosecuted as child abuse. It should be again.

I have 4 nieces who are now young adults but still traumatized by their time in foster system (as well as time with messed up bio mom). They were raised from late elementary school in permanent loving home but are struggling into adulthood due to past abuses. My D leaning wife especially has a heart for them, as do I. Today I shared with my wife Melanie and Trump’s ‘Fostering the Future’ EO (announced today) to shine light on older foster kids, to help them transition to trade school, college, job. These kids have no savings of their own and often no familia safety net. My wife almost weeped when I shared Trump’s efforts. Small steps.
