Reader Review by: Thomas Woodward (Ph.D, USF), Professor of Trinity College. Founder and Director of the C. S. Lewis Society, in Florida: “Guardians Without Wings” is an eye-opening, heart-wrenching, information-packed guide to the world of families in crisis and the crucial role of Guardians ad Litem. Written in a conversational style, it can be blunt and feisty at times, but it is always enlightening. I found myself shocked on one page, and then extremely edified and encouraged on the page that followed. Any book that is so provocative and stimulating will occasionally ignite a mental mini-debate between reader and author, but this is part of the “fun and education,” that comes from any book this stimulating, that penetrates mind and heart at the same time. Highly recommended."
This is a true story about how the system of justice works to protect America’s children, with the essential support of thousands of volunteers, known as Guardian ad Litem (GALs). We call them “Guardians without Wings,” because they lack sufficient resources to perform this vital work for our children.
According to NCANDS, 3.3 million child abuse reports involving over 6 million children existed in 2010. Over five children die every day from child abuse. About 30% of abused and neglected children will later abuse their own children, continuing this horrible cycle. The annual cost of child abuse and neglect in the U. S. is $124 billion.
What are the major causes of parental failure?
• Lack of child love by their parents (if you have not been loved, can you love)?
• Poor childhood moral development (little or no faith in God).
• Inadequate sense of child responsibility toward other family members.
• Negative influence of role models and peer groups, in schools and society.
• Appalling media (TV and Internet) manipulation of children’s values.
The Constitution and Bill of Rights are based on Christian principles, but many have discarded the fundamental values that form the essential foundation of our society.
We believe that all children are born innocent and lovable! It is the parents, the role models, peer group pressure, secular teachers, and the “culture of death”, that cause some of these children to grow up to become dysfunctional adults, and in many cases, appalling parents. What do we mean by “a culture of death” in Western society? It is about our growing divorce rates (52%); abortion-on-demand (50 million so far in America); rising euthanasia trends; unmarried parents or “paramours,” who avoid responsibility for their children; and the epidemic of illegal “pill mills” is now upon us.
Again, if you have not experienced love as a child, can you be a loving parent?
