Very strong article, thank you for posting. |

I'm genuinely curious about the ratio of black foster parents to white. Ate white people adopting black children more often than black parents? If so, why? |

| Wjla just posted article that Jen Hart was drunk and that 2 of the kids had Benadryl in their system. |

And the other mom had the Benadryl ingredient in her system too. This story has been haunting me all week. I'm not generally this affected by news stories, but this one is hitting me hard. So damn sad, on so many levels. Only one of which being how many people and how many times these children revealed the abuses against them and were effectively ignored. |

Well, there’s just way more black children in the system to begin with. |

I know. It's been haunting me, too. |

My kids have Benadryl in their systems more often than not this time of year. If the driver was drunk why are people even mentioning the Benadryl in passengers? |

| Sounds like she drugged everyone. Maybe in an effort to make their deaths painless? |

Or ... Maybe they had allergies? Tis the season. |

significant amounts?? Come on. If it were normal medical treatment ants, no one would have mentioned it. |

| So horrible and sad that the aunt was able to care for them and wanted them, and it sounds like she was denied custody because of a court misfiling that was never fixed. |

I read there were extremely high amounts of "an ingredient found in Benadryl", not Benadryl itself, but the ingredient in it that makes you sleepy. FWIW. And the 2nd/non-driver "mother" had it in her system too. They were not just medicated for allergies, FFS.

“Benadryl itself” and “the ingredient that makes you sleepy” are the same thing. There is no sleepy-making ingredient in it other than the active ingredient. The implication of the autopsy report might be that they found metabolites of this ingredient. |

Oh, this one is easy. Black folks not only lose their kids at a higher rate than whites, and often for less serious issues, but they also have a much harder time getting approved as foster parents even for their own relatives. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/fostercare/caseworker/roberts.html "A national study of child protective services by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reported that "minority children, and in particular African American children, are more likely to be in foster care placement than receive in-home services, even when they have the same problems and characteristics as white children" [emphasis added]. Most white children who enter the system are permitted to stay with their families, avoiding the emotional damage and physical risks of foster care placement, while most black children are taken away from theirs. And once removed from their homes, black children remain in foster care longer, are moved more often, receive fewer services, and are less likely to be either returned home or adopted than any other children." |

Same. Reminds me of the haunting Aunt Diane accident. |
