More than 2 million children are investigated for child abuse each year in 
the United States. When Child Protective Services makes a substantiated 
report, a majority of children taken from their homes begin a life-long 
journey of sufferage as they are placed in foster care homes. Most of these 
children suffer abuse at the hands of their foster parents and many children 
have died in the custody of Child Protective Services. These children have a 
much greater chance of being abused once they are taken out of their homes 
and will not have basic living skills as they "age-out" of their 
foster homes at 18 or 21. Foster children are at greater risk of becoming 
criminals and at being vulnerable to "trafficking." When the 
solution becomes greater than the targeted problem, it is time for change.
