Universal prekindergarten sounds like a good thing. Early education for all! Why not? Anything for the kids.

Universal pre-k already exists-or is close to existing-in a number of states, including Oklahoma, Florida, and, most recently, New York. And given the appeal of the idea, it's no wonder "preschool for all" emerged as a key talking point this election season, a year or so after President Barack Obama proposed a $75 billion federal universal pre-k program that involves partnerships with states.

Five former Arizona child welfare workers who were fired last year amid an agency scandal plan to appeal a judge's dismissal of their wrongful termination lawsuit.

Phoenix attorney Terry Woods said Monday he believes Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Robert Oberbillig made an incorrect legal decision when he approved a request from the state to throw out their lawsuit. The state's child welfare agency was rocked by the November 2013 discovery that thousands of hotline calls were labeled as not worthy of being investigated.

Public officials have joined forces to cover up and protect the criminals in terrifying case. At the center of this horrifying story is a very young girl who has been the victim of long term sexual abuse from her own father and perhaps others as well.

Have been unwilling to become involved in this situation in any way that negatively impacts the father or grandmother, thus proving there is not a single 'good cop' on the entire force. With some connections to the grandmother, the local court system has not only ignored the sexual abuse of a child, but has helped the father and grandmother maintain custody long after it was apparent they had no business in the child's life.

The report by the University of Chicago's Chapin Hall Center for Children released Tuesday contains a host of recommendations. The study was required by a 2014 law that created the new Department of Child Safety as a stand-alone agency.

Cape Town - The murder of a Cape Town girl days after her second birthday has once again highlighted how the most vulnerable in our society can slip through the cracks of the system that ought to protect them.

Two-year-old Zoey Petersen was beaten to death last Friday. Her father, Christopher Williams, 32, has been arrested and charged with her murder. Child protection groups said it was difficult to assess when the threat to a child was a relative, especially if a parent was accused of abuse.
