I am working on a larger piece for the newspaper I write for and wanted to solicit your thoughts.
What allows parents, in particular mothers, to commit crimes that risk them being taken away from their children? In particular I am interested in white collar crimes, such as embezzlement. Excluding issues of addiction and abuse, what allows someone to do this and risk being separated from their children? I just do not get it.
What are your thoughts? Please share your comments. If you would like to share something less public, you can email me.

I need your feedback
I am a free spirit, growing in my creative desires. I write, read, sew, knit, craft and garden. I am striving to live a more natural life everyday for Mother Earth but mostly for the health and well being of my children. I am above all committed to my family, my hilarious husband and life partner of 15 years makes sure I laugh every day. We cloth diaper, babywear, share sleep, and generally live a child led existence. I am strongly against the idea that children must be socialized but believe vehemently in the idea that children need their parents close and always - until. Until they are ready to leave and explore. Lest you think my life is too tranquil and nothing but sitting and reading books while children play with handmade toys; I spend the better part of my days wiping noses and butts, cooking, cleaning, cooking and cleaning some more, figuring out where that (insert any bizarre item you can think of here) came from, and explaining why Mama needs a TO and nap. Above all, I am human. I fail myself and family everyday and every day I am committed to give tomorrow another shot. Because after all, tomorrow will provide another opportunity to smile and laugh!
