Suffer the Children
Washington Monthly reports on "how government fails its most vulnerable citizens - abused and neglected kids." The story reports on children's deaths from abuse and neglect in New York, and finds that "many children faced a revolving door of foster care, one that was virtually spinning in some cases. A New York boy went through 37 different homes in two months; another lived with 17 families in 25 days."
