Neglected But Undefeated:
The Life of a Boy Who 
 Never Knew A Mother's Love

By Jonathan Anthony Burkett


I'm assuming that one of the boys on the cover of this book is Jonathan, plus his loving grandparents...I wonder what would have happened to Jonathan if he had never come to America...

Would he ever have been abused? I don't think so, because he had love from his grandparents, his friends and relatives. Would he ever have become a Christian? I think so... But would he have become a writer? I'm not sure...

One of the social issues I have never been able to make a firm decision on was abortion. My inner turmoil has always been that I would rather see it legalized then to see that unwanted child abused... I still don't have an answer for myself, especially after reading Jonathan's biography.

Jonathan was a child of rape. His mother never loved him, beating him continuously, often calling him by the name of her rapist, his father.  If Jonathan's mother would have aborted, then Jonathan would not have been born and suffered all that he did!

But we also wouldn't have the man that he is today! I want to know Jonathan, was it worth all that you went through? Can you truly accept that you lived as you did and still claim to be undefeated?

If you say, yes, Jonathan, then it was ONLY because of yourself and God's support...

Because you certainly didn't get it from anybody else! I urge you to read this book! I urge it to be read by all those in jobs that require interaction with children...

Were you one of those individuals who knew what Jonathan was going through? Were you one of those teachers that saw the scars, maybe the tears, heard the nonverbal cries for help?

Then why didn't you help?

Along with the tears, I am angry! I am angry for all those who never did what should have been done!

LOCK THAT MOTHER UP! KEEP HER AWAY FROM CHILDREN! GET HER TO A PSYCHIATRIST OR PLACE HER IN A HOSPITAL...

Why was she allowed to do what she did?

I don't understand! If Jonathan had stayed in Jamaica and his grandparents had done what his mother did, perhaps I could accept it, simply because I know nothing about the country...But he was brought, unwillingly, to America...

America failed him! Teachers you knew... Church members...YOU knew... You had to have known!
Jonathan was physically abused... ER staff you knew... Jonathan was operated on...surgeons had to have known why his seizures resulted...

This went on for years!

I am angry that this boy was hurt as he was... Angry because I know that he is not the only one!

WHY DO AMERICANS SEND MONEY TO CARE FOR CHILDREN IN OTHER COUNTRIES, THAT THEY NEVER SEE...

BUT DON'T GET INVOLVED ENOUGH TO SEE WHEN A CHILD IN AMERICA IS MISTREATED? 

AMERICANS, WE DID THIS TO JONATHAN BURKETT...[and others]

MAY GOD FORGIVE US... AMERICA IS NO LONGER THE LAND OF THE FREE...


Just my Opinion, of Course...

Fighting Power... Open Memoir

Recently, I got up, did the routine of feeding my cats first, and then turned on the 10PM news from the previous night. I normally start reading around 5PM most days and, if a book is really good or close to ending, I may continue to read on until I give that latest read a ranking which is sent to GoodReads and Amazon... I was, as so many others were, devastated to learn of more children being killed or hurt at a school... I am, I now admit it, in deep depression during which I can be triggered constantly by outside actions... How can we continue to claim to be a land of the free when children are murdered by those who are allowed to have guns to enter schools and shoot! And the very next report shows a man attacked on the street by ICE, taken to the ground and beaten by at least 4 men! This is not the exact video from that program, but it occurs so frequently that it always shows the exact image--a lone man, or woman, being attacked violently by men wearing masks, sometimes with no id...

  Hi Everybody,  Aside from sharing the above video for your information, once again showing just how bad it is here in America, I wanted to steal from DJT for the first time in my life, stating, "I hadn't thought about it..." Yesterday, I had what most people call a "last straw" moment... Do you ever get to a point when you know there is nothing you can do, but you are frustrated so much that you decide I just have to protest! Yes, of course, I've been protesting regarding the administration in the U.S., but this was much more personal... You see, a number of years ago, I had to have cataracts removed from both of my eyes. But, at the last moment, at least it now seems to me, I was "told" that they would be adding my prescription for my eyes directly into my eyes... Not having time to even think or realize what that might mean for my life, I responded "Cool!" and the procedures were schedule one right after the other. Now I want to quick...
