To deny a child love, acceptance, dignity, respect, and the barest minimum of body integrity is the heinous evil known as child abuse. The wounds from this attack on Miss Bates' very being will run deep and most likely throughout her life. All this sorrow, suffering, and pain for what? <BR/> <BR/>Sue, you wrote this one very well and poignantly. I do hope the word gets out as widely as possible. I have sent the link on to my contacts as well.

It's a Sci-Fi movie about a future when children are constructed genetically to suit the parent's preference before they are born. The children who are born normally, are called "God-children" children. I am really starting to think the future from Gattica is not that far off.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32482128.post-68973781072284612432007-09-14T13:09:00.000-07:002007-09-14T13:09:00.000-07:00But people will commend these parents for helping ...But people will commend these parents for helping their daughter get thin and go along with social services who remove fat children from their parents. After all, if you aren't thin, there has got to be something drastically wrong with you or the way your parents are treating you.<BR/>This thin-at-any-price mentality is just another way to keep women fixated on their inability to meet an impossible ideal instead of becoming self-confident people capable of changing the world.vesta44https://www.blogger.com/profile/15480692717585745934noreply@blogger.com
