Jeanette Wells, at three years of age was cooking hot dogs for herself, unsupervised. At three years old, you can only imagine how much attention she paying to the hot stove top. Jeanette ended up catching her skirt on fire, and she quotes from her memoir, “The doctors said I was lucky to be alive. They took patches of skin from my upper thigh and put them over the most badly burned parts of my stomach, ribs, and chest”(13). This obviously is a huge red flag.]]> 2021-05-20 12:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1543408578 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553383567 2021-05-24 12:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553383567 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553385085 2021-05-24 12:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553385085 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553397886 2021-05-24 12:17:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553397886 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553454440 In Jeanette Wells memoir, The Glass Castle, and example of medical neglect is when Brian cracked open his head and should have been taken to the ER, but they already had a kid in the hospital. “‘There was blood everywhere,’ Mom said, “but one kid in the hospital at a time is enough”(Wells 13).]]> 2021-05-24 12:40:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1553454440 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1554691452 In The Glass Castle childhood neglect is seen a lot the when the kids make friends. For example, when Jeanette was living in the dessert, she met a boy named Billy. Billy’s dad, much like Jeanette’s, is not much of a father, and more like a hopeless drunk, and couldn’t care less were his son was or what he was doing. When Billy brought Jeanette into his house, she ended up finding his dad passed out on a mattress. “His mouth hung open, and flies were gathered in his stubble of his beard. A wet stain had darkened his pants nearly to his knees” (Wells 82). ]]> 2021-05-24 17:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1554691452 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1557354358 Rex Wells, from The Glass Castle, is subject to a few of the more common roots to why he treats his family the way he does. It is easy to understand just how he was treated as a child, after the kids had to stay a few months with there grandma, Rex’s mother. “I went into Grandpa’s bedroom and saw Erma kneeling on the floor in front of Brian, grabbing at the crotch of his pants, squeezing and kneading while mumbling to herself and telling Brian to hold still, goddammit” (Wells 146). If she treated Rex the way she treated the children, Rex more than likely went through a childhood of verbal and sexual abuse. ]]> 2021-05-25 12:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1557354358 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1558112729 This is a picture of Jeanette’s last childhood home before moving to New York, 93 Little Hobart Street. The conditions these kids were living were completely unacceptable, and almost had to believe. “One of the supporting pillars was starting to buckle. The leak over Brian’s bed had gotten so bad that when it rained, he slept under an inflatable raft...the stairs [on the front porch] had completely rotted through” (Wells 237). ]]> 2021-05-25 15:36:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1558112729 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1558139865 2021-05-25 15:42:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1558139865 ridgws0459 https://padlet.com/ridgws0459/adypsqxaqze6ux8m/wish/1558161129 Our most local child protection service is right here in Marshfield, in the City Plaza.
