LETTER FROM AN ABUSED CHILD

No one can tell the story better than one of its victims

There is no better way to illustrate the way the child protectors treat the children in their care except to listen to the main victim, the child herself. When I saw this letter I knew I had to post it in the "Child Protector Watch" web site for all to see. I've helped her a very little bit where she had a problem with punctuation, and I split it up into more than the two paragraphs she used (she's only 12, after all), all to make it more readable. But that is the only editing I did. Here, right from her own pen, is Bobby Wilkes' plea:

A CHILD'S CRY FOR HELP, KEEP ME AWAY FROM MEAN PEOPLE

Hi my name is Bobbie Lynn Wilks. I will be 12 years old on April 16. I am a very happy child living with my mother now!!! I always want to be with my mom, brother, step dad (who is like a more dad than Gary Lynn Wilks!!). I lived with my Grandparents [dad's Mom & Step-Dad) for six years !! I did not see my Mom for three of those years!!! It was so hard & even harder for me to understand because I had a Great Mom always.

I did not even see my dad but maybe 1 hour a week if he could break away from his drinking pals. I was with his Mom and step dad that abused me all those years! I was pushed into a coffee table for asking about my Mom! Ever since that I get bad headaches. I think it's because of Rachel Turney pushing me into the coffee table!! I would cry my self to sleep at night!!! WANTING TO SEE MY MOM!!!! They would tell me if she loved me she would be calling me !!!! I saw the phone bills. She called me like twice a day! I knew deep in my heart that my Mom was out there somewhere fighting to get me back. My Mom loved me so much, and she was always a good Mom.

They told me she was a stripper ever since she was 15!! Thats a lie!!!! My Mom would never do that!!!! Rachel would always say Bad, bad things about my Mom. She once told me that is why I had to live with them, so I would not end up a Slut and pregnant at 15 like my Mom. Well, my Mom had my oldest sister at 21.

Rachel was so mean to me, and always said hurtful things to me to make me cry. I never felt like this was home. I did not belong there, & for sure did not want to be there. My Mom & I have a special bond no body can take away from us !!! I LOVE MY MOM!!! She is the best Mom ever! I cannot believe they would hold me back on something so special! They are the ones that don't love me. To do that itself is CRUEL! Very cruel to a little girl who wants her Mom. They (grandparents) try to act so innocent, that is a joke. I have seen them so drunk they could not talk. I have had to take Rachel aspirins in the mornings. I have great friends family and everything I ever wished for down here!! I'm so Happy, I have a Great Step-Dad. I wished I could call him mine, because he is always here for me & my brother & cousins.

He rides bikes, we play games like UNO, Battleship, Trouble & Sorry. My brother Joey is the best. We go swimming with Mom, and to the movies. I can't express how Happy, and Loved I am here. I now feel like I'm Home. This is a HOME & not just a house of abuse. My Mom & Step-Dad and many others worked so hard to get me here. Now I feel like I can truly be a person & a Kid again. With Rachel I could not. I was so sad.

I want to get my very own Lawyer to make sure these people do not EVER get me back. Because they are trying again and I'm very scared. I wish I NEVER had to even see them, they scare me, because they tell so many lies, and they are so cruel to do the things they did to me. I want to divorce them & my real dad. My real dad is no kind of dad. He was NEVER THERE. I was lucky to even see him at all in a week. I could always tell if something was coming up in court because he would come around more, but only then. He told me a Christmas I had to come & stay with my grandparents because he did not have time for me. So I did not go.

I DO NOT WANT TO EVER SEE THEM PEOPLE AGAIN IN MY LIFE. I'M PLEADING FOR HELP TO GET MY OWN LAWYER AND GIVE ME A VOICE IN WHAT I WANT FOR A CHANGE. NO ONE SEEMS TO LISTEN. THIS IS MY LIFE, NOT THEIRS. Please help me. I will not stop till I'm heard. If I have to go back, I will run away, again & again. Why should I live with someone like that, when My Home here is GREAT, My Mom, Dad, brother and all my family Love me so much. There is a Law named after me in TENNESSEE called The Bobbie Lynn Wilks Law- SB2719. It protects children from ABUSE, But when the Judges won't listen what good is it? My Mom has been on TV Shows to plead for help, and I got to be on one in January of this year. It was great. A homecoming show for me. Little did I know that I would have to face going back to ABUSERS. PLEASE HELP & HEAR MY VOICE.

Respectfully Always,
Bobbie Lynn Wills 727-781-0218

Yes, Mr. Thomas PLEASE post my letter. I have been inside today with Mom working on all the local Media, and some Law firms to send this too. I may only be 12 years old but I know BAD from GOOD, MEAN from NICE, ABUSE from LOVE and so on. I refuse to go back to those people when I'm so happy here at HOME. This is HOME to me, That never was. All I heard was BAD things about my Mom, that I don't think is true, and being told you will be just like her if we dont take care of you. Thats just 1 little thing, not counting the physical abuse, No they didn't beat me daily but I would have rather been than to be talked to like they did. That's not right, I can prove I'm my own person, I WANT A VOICE, & I WANT THIS TO STOP once & for all. Thank you so much for helping us EXPOSE the WRONGS of CPS in Tennessee, and the FAMILY (HAHAHA) courts.
