From a Child's eyes

The little boy held back his tears
As he hung on to his mom in fear
Those men are coming to take him away
He would rather they would leave and say
Son you can stay here with your family
But in his mind he is creating his own fantasy. 
As he is being pulled from his mother's arms
The boy screamed and yelled as if being harmed
His little mind kept playing the scenario over and over
He couldn't believe that this men could be such ogres
A monster who took him from the only home he knew
He ignored everything and did not listen to his point of view.
Some children are being pulled from their home without merit
Instead of helping or teaching the family to learn how to parent.
These stories repeat everyday throughout our civilized country 
It is easier for any caseworker to remove a child and to take custody. 
We are good at reacting to situations instead of teaching prevention.
Why not equip the parents with the kind of tools to reduce the tension
There are times that children sometimes need to go to a different ambience
But at least try to leave them in a place where there is love and consonance.
