Current thoughts.

What kind of life are we living in where a 3 year old boy needs permission to see his own mother? What kind of life are we living in where kids have to ask permission from the state to see their own mother on her birthday? What kind of life are we living in where you're not even allowed to speak to your father on the phone or receive gifts from him because major life-changing consequences would occur? What kind of life are we living in where an aunt doesn't even know the name of her one month old niece? What kind of life are these kids living?

We're living a life where sisters become strangers, fathers become strangers, and mothers.. are literally taken away from your daily, even weekly and sometimes monthly, routine. A life where love is put to the test time and time again, along with patience and tolerance. But still I have to ask.. what kind of life is this?
