I am new and looking for comforting advise. I work in the criminal justice system with children that have committed crimes. It is so hard everyday going to work and trying so hard to help these children to have hope, and try to guide them down a better path then what they are living in. To only have to send them back to parents that do not care about them, that do not care whether they stay in lock up or not. How do you get children to have hope when you know that there really is no hope for them?
