Synopsis

In her quest to help foster children, Candy Jeffries experiences shock and betrayal when she has to place her own son in the System, and realizes that safety and stability is not an issue with them. As she becomes aware of the corruption and abuse of power, her heart breaks for those who cannot or are not allowed a voice. As Candy continues to foster, she survives a divorce, marries her childhood sweetheart, sees her own son go to prison, and is exposed to sexual, physical, and emotional behaviors in the children and adults that she has never expected to experience. In her pursuit to hold the System accountable, sadness and fear are balanced with hope and happiness, as the System endeavors to shut her down.

Read what can happen in the System, from inspection of facilities, to infractions that would otherwise be questionable, or are often temporarily masked. This book provides both the perspective and insight of a mother and child's experiences with the System; through their lives and the impact it caused.
