He presses his face against the car window, watches the miles pass and wonders where life will take him. In a memoir filled with human drama, wisdom and timeless life lessons, "On The Road Less Travelled: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom" tells the improbable story of how Hajim bounced from foster homes to orphanages, in a daily struggle to survive, to living the American dream as an accomplished Wall Street executive and model family man with great moral fiber and the means to give back to a world that seemed intent on rejecting him.Ed served as a senior executive at such firms as E.F.

Rob Henderson is an Author, Cambridge PhD recipient, Yale Graduate, a US Air Force Veteran and a popular writer on Substack. Going to school is far less important than having a parent who cares enough to make sure you get to class every day. 60% of boys in foster care are later incarcerated, while only 3 percent graduate from college. Children raised in a wealthy but unstable home are more likely to engage in harmful adult behaviors than a child raised in a low-income home yet stable home. How a child raised in a wealthy but unstable home is more likely to engage in harmful adult behaviors than a child raised in a low-income home yet stable home These are harrowing facts that Rob has devoted his lift to researching. In this emotive episode, Rob unveils the stark realities of growing up in a system that often fails its most vulnerable members - the care system. Rob Henderson's remarkable journey from foster care to elite academia is a testament to his resilience and determination. From his turbulent childhood in foster homes to his academic achievements at elite universities, Henderson sheds light on the challenges faced by foster children, highlighting the staggering statistics that reveal the harsh realities of their outcomes. Through personal anecdotes and insightful analysis, he delves into the concept of "luxury beliefs" embraced by the upper class, exploring how these ideologies can perpetuate inequality and harm the very individuals they aim to uplift. As Rob reflects on his own experiences and those of his peers who fell victim to the cycle of incarceration and despair, he challenges societal norms and redefines the meaning of success. With raw honesty and unwavering determination, he underscores the importance of stability and parental support in shaping one's future, emphasizing that true prosperity goes beyond external accolades.

    Slam the Gavel welcomes Kajal Emmett to the podcast. Kajal Emmett was born in New Delhi, India. Before the age of 4, she was abandoned and left in the street where she took train after train trying to make my way back home.     Eventually Kajal was picked up by a police officer and brought to an orphanage in Asharan, India. At the age of four, she was then adopted by an American family. Being placed in foster care when she was just 15 years old, she remained there until aging out of the system at 21. Kajal is the only foster child who has completed the entire Elks Aidmore program.     Kajal's passion in life is to fight for the rights of young foster children in the system. She understands what it's like to be in Foster Care. Kajal wants to provide opportunities for these young children to have and share their voices as well as be a positive example for them to navigate through the system. Kajal is also ready to take on all challenges that come along with advocating for Foster Care children.      Sharing her story of living in a Foster Home and what happened in her life that then led her to running away and ending up in a Group Home, Kajal's story is so unique. We discussed how victims end up being punished and the offenders rarely get punished, "the one getting abused gets locked up." Why is life so unfair and so unfortunate for children in Foster Care? Children in Foster Care are conditioned to live in survival mode at all times while walking on eggshells to please the Foster Parent. These children have suffered so much trauma in their young lives to only relive it when being pulled out of one foster home and be placed into another group home.        Kajal wants to thank Jesus for leading, guiding and protecting her to be on the right step. She is so grateful to Jesus for allowing her to go through what she went through so she can help other kids who have been affected by the foster care system. It's time to TAKE A STAND. "What then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us who can be against us," Romans 8:31).To Reach KK Emmett:  www.rescuethefosters.org, 770-861-0898                                                   RescueTheFosters@Proton.me                                                   Rumble "INSITE" Podcast, Thursday 7:30pm EST                                                  INSTAGRAM: kkemmett5,  TWITTER: kkemmett28,  TikTok: kkemmett28This episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

On the 69th episode of The Paul Cardall Podcast, Hope Children's Home Administrative Director Matt Higgins joins Paul to discuss a modern day orphanage. Founded in 1968, Hope Children's Home has rescued nearly 5,000 children between the ages of infant to 18 years of age. They discuss their belief that a personal relationship with Christ, combined with an excellent education and a well-rounded sports program is the key to Hope's success.  ABOUT HOPE CHILDREN'S HOMEFounded in 1968, Hope Children's Home has rescued nearly 5,000 children between the ages of infant to 18 years of age. The type of children we care for are not juvenile delinquents, but rather children that, through no fault of their own, find themselves in a situation of needed rescue. Some children simply come out of a situation where a parent just needs a little help. Whether it's our campus in Tampa, New Mexico, or Honduras, each child is equally important in God's eyes and ours. Each campus is able to care for the children in a beautiful family atmosphere while instilling core Christian values. We believe that a personal relationship with Christ, combined with an excellent education and a well-rounded sports program is the key to Hope's success. Our school program begins in our Nursery and continues through the 12th grade. We are proud to say that over 95% of the students who graduate from Hope Christian School continue to college. Hope Children's Home receives no State or Federal funding but rather is entirely supported by churches, private individuals, businesses, and organizations. The faith that we exercise each and every day for our needs is a faith that is passed on to the children as they see God's hand of provision. The children see first-hand that God will never leave them nor forsake them. For over 50 years, Hope Children's Home has lovingly cared for children in need and tried to make a difference in their very impressionable lives. We feel that God has called us to help rebuild the broken lives of these children and to build the bridge, when possible, between home, parent, and child. The rewards of our labor are the thousands of children across the country who are now productive adults raising their own children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. OFFICIAL WEBSITE:   https://hopechildrenshome.orgDONATE: https://raisedonors.com/hopechildrenshome/donation-pageFACEBOOK:  https://www.facebook.com/HopeChildrensHomeINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/hopechildrenshomeTWITTER:  https://twitter.com/hopechildrens ABOUT THE HOST PAUL CARDALLOfficial Website - http://www.paulcardall.comFacebook - http://www.facebook.com/paulcardallmusicYoutube - http://www.youtube.com/cardallInstagram - http://www.instagram.com/paulcardall LISTEN TO PAUL'S MUSICAPPLE MUSIC - https://music.apple.com/us/artist/paul-cardall/4312819SPOTIFY - https://open.spotify.com/artist/7FQRbf8gbKw8KZQZAJWxH2AMAZON - Ask Alexa to play Peaceful Piano by Paul Cardall Paul Cardall is an artist who has given a new meaning to the phrase, a change of heart and how he used this radical change to take his music to an unexpected place.  Despite being born with a potentially life-threatening heart defect Paul Cardall has become a world recognized pianist.

    Slam the Gavel welcomes back Jay Rosenthal from Cpsprotect.com (Season 3, Episode 87) and Sylvia Beachy from RescueTheFosters@proton.me on the podcast. We discussed the well-oiled machinery of the CPS system and that it is finely perfected, however flawed and paid for by the taxpayers. It is a broken system. ASFA (America Safe Families Act 1997) and CAPTA (Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, 1974) was well-intentioned but fell short.    Solutions were discussed and Jay Rosenthal talked about URGENT ASSIST BASIC provided by Cpsprotect.com and what that entails when CPS is at YOUR DOOR. This levels the playing field for the parents. There is freedom of choice but not freedom from consequence. We talked about accountability and why caseworkers remove children, "when in doubt, pull them out." Taking a child out of a loving, fit home may end them up in a very abusive situation in a Foster Home.  Sylvia Beachy brought up the fact that the MEDIA only shows the biological deaths of children but not the deaths in Foster Care.      It is important to discuss uncomfortable topics as Sylvia Beachy stated, "We need to get uncomfortable as children are attacked at all angles. Where are you getting your moral values from?"  Sylvia felt her moral compass was pushed too far and that was when she began RescueThe Fosters@proton.me    We discussed pushing Atheism on our society and that it's cool to not believe in God and where exactly is the stability for these children in the system.   https://youtu.be/qhzuSxirGGMTo reach Sylvia Beachy and Kajal Emmett:  RescueTheFosters@proton.me and 770-861-0898Rumble "INSITE" Podcast Thursday 7:30pm ESTWebsite: https://cpsprotect.comPhone: (844) 633-KIDSE-Mail: contact@cpsprotect.comSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comSupport the showSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)http://www.dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.com/

CRT continues to permeate our institutions at an alarming rate. Regardless of the pushback, the CRT and antiracism activists have created f formidable incursion. In K-12 and higher education, this often means circumnavigating the parents. The state of Utah is no different. Cari Bartholomew is a researcher of Critical Race Theory and advises organizations on recognizing and fighting this pernicious ideology. As a woman of color, she is heavily criticized and was even fired for pushing back in the classroom.
