Methods of oversight are always interesting. Our Child Welfare system has such a method and citizens are responsible to see that the child, in the care of the state, has his needs met. An obvious weak point is that the state workers are paid to do a job and the oversight people are volunteers. We need a method whereby that which is best for the child is what actually happens. Sometimes, though, there isn't a "good" answer. Then, if he's lucky, the child is the recipient of the choice that is "better". We must treat our children better.
