It is easy to blame the system, school and costs, etc. But, ultimately, it isnsibility to make sure your child is well. It is a gross negligence that a parent did not seek help when a child was complainig about pain for a month. [/quote]

Apparently, you aren't poor and are not aware of the plethora of health care options there are are for poor children in the United States.  [/quote]

Have you tried to access these services or even find doctors who take medicaid?  Its very very very difficult.  I have.  Those free clinics take months to get an appointment.  And, basically only Children's and a handful of other places take medicaid.[/quote]
