Children Dying in State Run Foster Care

"Adoption and Safe Families Act" is a misnomer - there is nothing "safe" about this law for children or for their families. "Professionals" have been known to say "We give family members ample time to come forward," but there is no incentive for them to keep a family together. Rather than placing children with relatives or with the old-style temporary foster care givers, children today are often placed with fost/adopts. Fost/adopts are people who are looking for a child - if they like the child then they won't want to allow the child to return to family. Non-custodial parents constitutional rights to the care, control and custody of their children are often violated.
