But DocSniper, the parable is also directed at us to a DoC worker, we cannot ignore them in their time of distress or we are no better than them as Jesus said "Go your way and be doing the same yourself" - Luke 10:37...

I know what these people have done to us as parents and to our children but it does not give us the right to act as they do back to them if they were in need themselves...that judgement should be left to the one who knows all things and that's where faith and patience has to play a big part and it also helps us not to stay forever angry...we can get on with life even with what DChs have done to us.
