If you think your skids are being abused/neglected

Here's some info for you. You CAN do something. You SHOULD do something. Your local government is corrupt? Get the feds involved. Talk to other adults outside the home that the kids know. Talk to their teachers/write/email them. Even if you don't know the teachers, they're mandated to report any claim of abuse/neglect they get on their students. Go to your local police station/troopers/sheriff's office. There are many, many channels you can use. If one doesn't work try another one.
