I pray for all of the families to get help and healing from this. Where is the NAACP? I'm not being funny, but if the president still stops by to read the posts...what is the organization willing to do to step up and make some reforms? This is a perfect example of when an influential group can make a statement for a cause. I'm just thinking out loud again. mochamommy, you are heading to time out …..we all have 1 in the family that ‘goes away’ for a little while.

I agree with most of what you said but I disagree with the part of its the family fault. You cannot blame the family or the state of Ga for this girl's illness or not getting the proper medical treatment for her illness. That is like blaming a person's family for having cancer, aids or any other sickness. The state of Ga or any other state could barely cover insurance cost for poor folks never mind mental health individuals..... This woman may not have private insurance to cover her medical expenses.. its just sad and yes I do feel sorry for all parties involved- especially NANA.. @ ladydiamond..

Also, you people keep talking about she needs to sit in jail and she'll get right. All the jail time in the world won't help her; hell, it don't even help the people that actually deserve to be there! And if she isn't a threat to anyones safety or herself, she can't be detained or hospitalized.

Look, as a people we need to stop relying on other people for our general care and well being. The problem lies within our own communities where we no longer have family, church and community bonding together and takng care of our own. We use to be a society of people that operated like a nucleus, now everyone is out for themselves and we are living the "American Way": I gotta get mine, you gotta get yours. Her mother, father and those in her family are to blame for where she is. It's not the State of GA or anything else to seek the help and attention she needs. If she were trying to get food stamps or something, they'd be all over that paperwork....go figure. Yeah I said it...And? This is NOT a state, county nor city issue.
