Sad Facts
I’m learning a lot in my training to become a Child Advocate and I’m very excited to get started. I’m also learning some sad facts:
“It is an odd comment on the western world that legislation for the prevention of cruelty to animals predated protection of children in most areas. A century ago in England, children eight and nine years old were forced to work longer hours in the coal mines than the pit mules that were protected by law.”
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think it is okay to abuse animals but shouldn’t kids come first?
It was 1944 before the courts begin to restirct parental control in order to protect the well-being of a child. That really wasn’t that long ago.
