Relisha would be 12 now. Her story haunts me. [/quote]

Me too. A horrible tragedy born of neglect.[/quote]

ME too!  I have never felt such grief for a person I didn't even know.  [/quote]

Same. And I am sure there are kids right now, right here in DC who this is still happening to. I feel utter grief and also utter rage. [/quote]

Instead of obsessing about one highly publicized case why don’t you people do something to prevent the next Relisha Rudd?
What exactly does something ‘haunting you’ do for the world. [/quote]

I understand how you feel but obsessing about this one highly publicized case keeps Relisha at the forefront of peoples' minds and also inspire (some) to do better for our children. I work at a school in DC. One of my colleagues worked at Relisha Rudd's school. We use her example to educate and enforce compliance around safety, reporting, follow-up, etc.  There is much more that needs to be done of course but I believe that remembering Relisha will motivate people to do more.

Exactly-- Relisha Rudd's story woke me up.  I started donating time and money to a non-profit organization that provides arts and crafts to homeless kids in DC.  Am I allowed to name the organization here?  [/quote]
