A guide to legally taping phone calls in all 50 states.

At first, the question of whether or not to tape record a phone call seems like a matter of personal preference. However, there are important questions of law that must be addressed first. Both federal and state statutes govern the use of electronic recording equipment. The unlawful use of such equipment can give rise not only to a civil suit by the "injured" party, but also criminal prosecution.

The Adoption and Safe Families Act, (ASFA), was passed in 1997 by the US Congress. The purpose of this Bill was to protect children from lingering in foster care too long.

The idea was to find permanent placement for children within a designated time frame. Attached to this movement of children would be financial incentives and bonuses to states for compliance with mandates. Thus, the Child Abuse Industry in America was now, subsidized by the Federal Government. With virtually no accountability and no oversight on the part of the states it has become the genocide of American families.

Upset over being grounded for skipping a tutoring session, Carrie twice told investigators that Marla abused her, but no concrete grounds existed to take the child. Carrie took the initiative.

One day, the girl went to school in her native Arroyo Grande and decided not to go back home. Kie, with the help of a 14-year-old girl and a little frustration on behalf of the mother, apparently managed to play CPS like a drum. "I am of the professional opinion that CPS allowed [Carrie] and Debbie Kie to manipulate the system," psychologist Matlock wrote in a letter to county officials.

The helmet perfectly symbolizes childhood today. Nothing is safe, kids should be wary of everything, pass the Ritalin. This phenomenon would be laughable if it weren't so serious.

Gone are the golden afternoons of my own childhood, when I left the house without a hat, or sun screen, to noodle about on my bike (without a helmet) and play hide-and-seek in the bushes (without benefit of mosquito repellant or pedophile spray) and invariably stayed out until supper (which consisted of fattening foods).

LEWIS TOWNSHIP -- The Ohio foster parents who reported a 3-year-old developmentally disabled boy had vanished now are charged with causing his death.

Marcus Fiesel's disappearance had triggered a massive search by volunteers. Authorities now said the boy was left in a closet while his foster parents went to a family reunion in Williamsburg, Ky., on Aug. 4.

Initiated by Senate Enrolled Act (SEA) 529 during the 2005 legislative session, it is the product of eleven months of work. The legislation specified what the plan should address, and who should participate in its development.

The plan covers many topics including assessment, accountability and outcome measurement, finance and budget, best practices, referral networks, school standards, workforce development, and training. Considerable information and insight were gathered through three public forums conducted in the north, central and southern regions of the state.

Four local children's agencies had quit placing foster children through a private company by the time prosecutors announced the grisly details of Marcus Fiesel's death in foster care.

Four local children's agencies had quit placing foster children through a private company by the time prosecutors announced the grisly details of Marcus Fiesel's death in foster care. Now, a state senator's demand for a full-scale probe and a continuing police investigation should determine how the company - Lifeway For Youth - placed the 3-year-old Middletown boy with David and Liz Carroll. It's not the first time practices at the nonprofit Christian-based placement agency have come under fire.
