Part of it is the casual attitude towards sex, and the unplanned pregnancies that result.
Add in the single mother, and absent daddy/sperm donor (In GA, 60+% of minority births are to unwed mommies).
Since no planning went into conceiving the kid, it wouldn't be expected that any planning/effort will go into raiising the kid.
And then add in the low wage govt. people in the Children Services Dept. who are under-trained, possibly over-worked, and useless.
As RR said, their is no easy answer, but there is a simply answer - no babies until you're married, you're employed, and you're housed.

I think you get dumber with every passing day. Not to mention more racist.
There's been PLENTY of child abuse (physical and mental) in homes with a married mother and father who are both making huge amounts of money.
Cooper's right....there's not any more than there used to be....just more reporting. There's probably LESS than there used to be.
