Washington State Study Proves that NOT Putting Children into Foster Care Saves Lives!

When we first started our Medical Kidnap website in 2014, some of the most horrific stories of children being ripped away from their parents were coming out of the State of Washington.

Before Facebook and Google started altering their algorithms to prevent stories like our Medical Kidnapping stories from going viral, we used to put a lot of pressure on the State by having people call and email State authorities, and making whatever story we were covering a "high profile" case that often even the local corporate media sources would cover.

Such was the case in 2014, when we covered the story of the Rengo Family from Bellingham, Washington. Even through we broke the news the day before Thanksgiving that year, it went viral with more than 1 million views in 48 hours.

The mom in this story gave birth to twins at home, and the grandmother was allegedly not too pleased that they did not take the babies to the hospital, and had an ambulance sent to check on them, which prompted them to report the parents to Child Protective Services, even though they found nothing medically wrong with the twins.

We managed to send over 6000 calls to Governor's office, and at the first hearing, they returned the babies to the parents, which was unheard of back in those days.

It did not last long, however, and eventually the State came back and seized all three of their children, completely destroying this family.

And this was not the only horror story we published out of Washington State.

Well today, almost 12 years later, Washington State is now perhaps taking the lead on correcting many of the abuses in their child welfare system, and have found out what we and others have been publishing for many years now, which is that children who stay home, even in "troubled homes", do far better than children put into the foster care system.

Richard Wexler, writing for the Washington State Standard, states that due to recent efforts in Washington State to keep families together rather than taking their children away from them, that between 16 to 55 lives of children are being saved per year!
