of child abuse, sexual abuse, child molesting, incest, rape or

ABUSE-EXCUSE.COM provides resource information and more to parents and others unjustly accused of child abuse, physical child abuse (including Shaken Baby Syndrome), child neglect, sexual child abuse, child pornography via the Internet, "repressed" memories, sexual harassment, or domestic violence (spousal abuse). We aim to help the falsely and wrongly accused to articulate scientific facts to child protection investigators, teachers, attorneys and judges, urging them to exercise caution in their "rush to judge" abuse calls. About 2/3 of all child abuse reports turn out to be unfounded, as errors or mistakes in professional judgment. Don't forget to check this page on Tips if You've Been Wrongly Accused of Child Abuse. |

MY FIGHT AGAINST THE CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES
began on March 31, 1994. At 9:00 AM Pat Swanson from the LaSalle County Department of Children and Family Services and Sgt. Mike Crane of the LaSalle County Sheriff's Department came knocking on our door. Knowing that they were responding to an allegation and that I had nothing to hide, I let them in, figuring that if I told them my side of the story, they would believe me and let me go.

Suggested Reforms Foster Care We are a coalition of groups concerned for the physical and emotional safety and well being of children in foster care. Our groups represent many sides of the child welfare equation. We are former orphans, foster children, and adoptees. We are parents who have wrongfully lost their children temporarily, and we are foster parents as well. http://groups.msn.com/SUGGESTEDREFORMSFOSTERCARE/suggestedreformsinfostercare.msnw |

Washington Family United Our primary purpose is to help Washington families who have children "in state care" or at risk of being placed "in care". By "in state care" we mean foster care, group homes, residential treatment, and kinship care. Our child welfare system often does not serve families in the most efficient manner possible. |

Foster Parent Legal Solution Plan “None of us expects our house to burn down, and we cross our fingers we won’t be burglarized. While not expecting allegations of abuse to children to be made against them, it is vitally important that foster parents acknowledge the possibility.” — Gordon Evans, National Foster Parent Association |
