Dear Dr. Laura,
I’m still my kids’ mom. Right now they’re all at foster homes, but I’m trying to get them back.
You don’t have to answer the first letter I sent you--everything’s changed since then! My boyfriend--the one I called Larry? He’s back in jail. It’s pretty amazing cause here in Oregon they’re letting everybody out of jail cause of the budget? But Larry he just kindof flipped out--first he stole my car, then he fell asleep while he was driving cause he was back on heroine cause the state cut off the methadone program cause of the budget? He drove into a telephone pole a block away from the police station so the one cop on duty didn’t have any choice but to arrest him.
Then you remember the guy I called Ray? He’s the one that got me pregnant? Well, he’s living with the girl I called Diane now--the one I did it with? I guess I don’t have to worry about them anymore, and I’ve done it with a few guys since then, so I don’t think I’m a biological error after all.
And remember last time I told you I was pregnant? Well, I don’t want to tell you because I know you said that a fetus is a human being, so I guess I’ll just say that fetus is in heaven now.
The reason I’m writing, Dr. Laura, is I’m wondering if you could write me a letter of recommendation to Children’s Services so I can get my kids out of foster homes?
I love you Dr. Laura. You’re so wise!
God Bless You, Dr. Laura
