Lawsuit coming against DCFS, the mom (Whitney Ard) was failed by the system

A group of lawyers said plans are being made to file a lawsuit with a focus on the Department of Children and Family Services following a 2-year-old’s deadly overdose in Baton Rouge.
The lawyers said DCFS failed 2-year-old Mitchell Robinson and his mother Whitney Ard. They point at the agency being underfunded, staff being underpaid, and staff working a case load that is above the national average.

Yeah, I think it was the third time it had happened. Previous times ended up in ER visits which were recorded as overdose symptoms and then not followed up with by DCFS

I mean, DCFS definitely failed. But let's not let that get in the way of personal fricking responsibility either. Your kid died from a fricking overdose on drugs. So if we want to place some blame on DCFS, that's fine. But make sure this woman gets the brunt of it.

Guessing some bullshite about not trying to help her get into treatment or educate her on the dangers of drugs around 2 year olds

When they take the child, they refer the mom to services related to her case. For her, it would have been parenting classes and rehab

Is this from an article or something or just your opinion?

There are a lot of times where I'm willing to defend attorneys for unsavory dealings
this is not one of those times

"The system" shouldn't exist. You mean to tell me there wasn't one single cousin or auntee who could've stepped in and done something?

Yeah the personal responsibility ship has sailed in most parts of society unfortunately.

Well suing them (for money) will definitely help with those issues.
