Broken Harts

Ugh. It's such a sad story with a horrible outcome. However the documentary has such a obvious agenda it's sickening. The blue haired gentleman hates white people every time he comes on it's some kind of Condescending comment about white people specifically white women. This Messes with the whole documentary. The blue haired gentleman is gaggingly sickening.

I feel that the African American man hijacked this story to try and make it about race. If you want to blame social services for not interfering, I think it has more to do with two lesbian parents than the fact that they are white. Everyone was fooled by the lesbian mothers having the picture perfect family. I don't know the laws in Texas, but why did the Aunt leave them with her daughter who let the biological mother come see them? There are no easy answers, and six beautiful children lost their lives in this social experiment.

Those children were failed again and again and again, by everyone around them and the multiple agencies that should have investigated further. If the skin colors were reversed, the two adoptive 'mothers' would have been crucified upside down seconds after the first allegation was made. An absolute disgrace on every level. My heart breaks for those kids and everyone who loved them.

Two White lesbians became the guardians of six intractable black youths and proved what anyone without a corrupt mind already knew.

The film is banal, with the obvious agenda of the director unintentionally providing the only true commentary on a society hopelessly professing/pretending to believe anything other than the truth.

As expected, this documentary is HARD to watch. The lives these kids led is horrific. What also makes this hard to watch is the racism accusations that just aren't proven. To me, this is a woman (Jen) with severe mental health issues that were well hidden, a woman's partner (Sarah) who to me is a battered wife, controlled and doesn't know how to get out. I don't believe Sarah was a co-conspirator in the deaths, I think it was Jen. Irrelevant now. I think the "system" failed these kids, just like it fails kids every day all day long all over the country but racism? Nope. Not buying it. I think those kids would have been abused, neglected and ultimately killed no matter their skin color.
