Disposable Children: America's Child Welfare System is a compilation of first-hand accounts from those who are directly involved with the juvenile justice and welfare systems--case workers, judges, and most importantly, children who have been caught in the sytem and whose lives have suffered from it. Golden provides considerable background information on the systems, ills of each, and how we can attempt to remedy these ills. With a focus on Chicago, plus additional material across the nation, Golden gives a condemning portrayal of the child welfare system and offers some solutions for these endemic problems.
