It Begins and Ends with Family is a book written by parents who fostered over 75 kids, mainly teen aged boys and often eight at one time. The book relates the experiences of a foster parent and some of the discoveries made about why and how to foster. These parents learned that everything comes down to families. It starts with how children are raised and what type of family dynamics are present in their natural family. It continues with what the foster family can do with these children once the dysfunctional family unit has spoiled them. It ends when the foster family has done all they can to undo any harm done and start that child on the right path. Family impacts the situation when the child returns to their family of birth and needs to fit in again but, often with a whole new set of rules and values. The real key to calling this experiment a success is when these children grow up and have relationships and children of their own. So it truly has everything to do with family. Our house was for those who had so many behavior issues that it was our house or detention. We had some of the so called 'worse kids' and some of the most damaged. We know every child we fostered was not a success, but we can still offer advice since difficult kids demanded unique parenting methods.
Imagine a world where society cannot protect their children from moral decay and the spread of evil.Andrew Zenith, a conscientious local TV reporter, never worries about getting ahead just making a difference. He uncovers a story that will change the direction of his life forever. After hearing this story, all he thinks about every moment is confirming the facts he hopes are not true. He is driven to save the children. This task is near impossible since the majority of people have cold hearts and a loss of compassion for others.
He joins with others who care. Their mission-is to save the children at all costs. If their mission fails young lives will be ruined and even cut short. The fate of the children rests upon finding answers to the questions no one even wants to ask. Will he succeed against overwhelming odds?
Local TV reporter Andrew Zenith is very conscientious about his job and his one goal in life is to save the children. The sickening stories Andrew reports daily bring him no closer to helping stop the abuse. Children are under attack and there is no solution in sight.
If Andrew fails to save them, the result is broken children and future dysfunctional families. Sexual abuse of children is widespread and even if we catch the perpetrators, jails are too full to incarcerate them.
Parents fear they cannot protect their own children. With 'end times' approaching and the dystopian nature of their world some people have decided to take the law into their own hands. They have made it their mission to get rid of the perps. Will Andrew find the answers he seeks? Can he save the children?
