I left a nice comment there-

Is the economy behind our child abuse spike?

No. Increased REPORTS are being caused by lapdog media harping on the subject and pumping it up to sound worse than it is. Case in point is the sidebar to this story.

Last month was "Child Abuse Awareness Month" and this month is Foster Care Month, and the template for these stories are SUPPLIED by the agencies to "give a local flavor" to the talking points.

With an 85% false allegation rate, it would seem like eventually this insane kidnapping system would just fade away and end up in the trash heap of history.
