Yesterday in Washington, I hosted a small National Review Institute lunch, as I traditionally do. Naomi Schaefer Riley spoke about her important book, No Way to Treat a Child: How the Foster Care System, Family Courts, and Racial Activists Are Wrecking Young Lives. We had an ecumenical table, and eyes were opened and a fire was lit. If you have not read Naomi’s book, you need to. And be challenged in a particular way by chapter ten, about people — mostly evangelicals — stepping up to the plate to make sure no one is orphaned, no child is without a family. This is work we all must play a role in. It is right. I also think it will wind up bringing people to see the humanity of every human person, whatever his beginnings or circumstances or wounds.

I also talked with Naomi recently about the book here:
