Crown seeks acquittal in Joshua case

Crown seeks acquittal in Joshua case

Ironically, this was published on the birthdate of a beloved child. Today, comes the welcome news that Sherry has been totally absolved of ALL blame in her baby's death so many years ago.


This is such a horrendous story (along with many others) Not only did Sherry experience the immeasurable agony of losing a child, but also, social services swooped in and took another son and adopted him out. Further, when she bore another child- social services were all over her like flies feasting on fresh manure.

All of this is analogous to a mother losing custody to an abuser. A baby,child, animal and woman abuser. The community- by and large turns against these mothers- believing the - "experts (read psychologists and social services personnel) - who have decided that she lied, or was "into" false allegations etc.

The end result is the same. Almost, or total , destruction of lives. Needlessly.

Terrible to say- but- at least Sherry did not have to deal with the constant abuses of her "ex" - as happens in custody cases- , nor pay hard earned money to her and her children's abuser- whilst never seeing them-

I can just imagime the hard looks- the set faces and clipped tones of the social workers who came to - -"inspect" her- all of them, I suppose, believing she was an abuser.
Thank goodness for James Lockyear and --- ,who fight with so much success, to right grievous wrongs.

This woman (and others) deserves a medal. An absolute medal. I hope when her "kidnapped" son reaches 18, that he will be allowed to -know the truth of his adoption and who his birth mother is.

If there is a God- and/or attendant angels, I expect them to support and protect James Lockyear for what I hope is a very very long career.
This is a human who walks in grace.

Pound Pup Legacy | advocates for child safety within the foster care and adoption system

Pound Pup Legacy advocates for child safety within the foster care and adoption system


This just came through on an alert for -texts about child sexual abuse. Very important for Canadians. While this blog appears to address specifically fostering and adoption- the social services systems in general, across Canada, are positively medieval and many of their practices and attitudes are immensely destructive to non-offending parents and the wounded children- as well as affecting foster child and adopted children.
All too often, the lack of knowledge, poor attitudes, prejudices and lack of communication between systems, result in deaths. Think of residential schools. Think of reservations- think of "domestic" violence -(I detest that term- I picture a snarling fanged brute tearing apart a mother- whilst social workers comment from behind the safety of a barrier-) he isn't very socialized is he ? We recommend custody to the brute- after all- he will go to anger management classes, and therapy for the alleged victim- she didn't defend herself very well- and we need to know what she did to set him off.) Think of - churches and their - - - -leaders-
like- Raymond Lahey - -
And, for sure, read Honouring Christian Lee, September 2009-No Private Matter: Protecting Children Living With Domestic Violence ; report from the Representative for Children and Youth-available in pdf at : www.rcybc.ca/content/home.asp
When you get angry and heartsick, choose what YOU will do to help. We ALL pay the abusers via our tax dollars.
