Hi AKA Monet,

When I mentioned standards- I was talking about the standards by which the government would decide when a child should be removed. I do think economics could end up playing an unfair role in that- hence my concern.

And fair point of you to note that this is an economic issue in general more than racial. I agree. The hypothetical I posed was driven in large part by the fact African-American status, on average, in the US is highly tied to economics, and not in a good way.

But most importantly, I love the hint of optimism in your posts on topics like this. It is very contagious- and thankfully so.
