Many here do not know I am a subscriber. Coming out of lurkdom (after a
few weeks away from here) to read about how an immigrant mother was
arrested for allowing a photo to be taken of her nursing her year-old
child (and I had left a county mental health board meeting an hour
earlier where the topic was cultural competence). Am struggling not to
become physically ill over this.

Would any of our members from Texas please post the attorney's addresses
and phone numbers? I have tried to do a Google search and I am not
getting anything. Would like to call the attorneys.

Any one got copies of books with photographs of older nursing children
that we could share with Texas DCFS?

abuse} and 2002-JA-37 {where DCFS did not get involved until November,
2002, when they were ordered to by a judge}
