Parents Talk: Speeding Up the Adoption Process

0
0
A woman holds her child in Beijing in January.

Most adoptive parents or those waiting to adopt, will likely tell stories of the long and sometimes difficult process they go through to bring a child home.

According to BBC News, England's government is attempting to speed their own processes up and provide more support for adopting parents.

Government officials want more adoptive parents to come forward to increase the number and speed of adoptions. According to the article, the number of children approved for adoption rose from 3,000 in 2010 to more than 4,000 in 2012, government figures show. But there are still about 4,000 in care waiting to be matched with prospective parents.

In the article, Children's minister Edward Timpson said up to 25,000 people asked about adopting each year, but thousands ended up being deterred by the process and the delays.

In Minnesota, many times training classes are required before a person or couple can even submit an application to adopt. A home study follows and at this point, the process has taken anywhere from four to six months, according to MN Adopt. Then families wait for placement, which has no guaranteed time. The full Minnesota adoption process can be seen here.)

According to the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute, 423,000 children are living without permanent families in the United States, with 115,000 of them eligible for adoption. 

Do you think the United States government or Minnesota's legislature should take a more active role in streamlining the adoption process? Do you think the current system is necessary to ensure the best fit for a child? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.

BREAKING: Ground Search Officially for Missing Oakdale Woman Called Off

0
0
Danielle Jelinek of Oakdale has not been seen or heard of since Saturday, Dec. 8.

An Oakdale woman missing nearly three weeks has still not been found, but authorities are calling off the ground search around the area she was last scene, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported today.

Jelinek, 27, of Oakdale, has been missing since Dec. 7. She was reported missing on Dec. 9 after no one had seen or heard from her. 

The Chisago County Sherriff's Office conducted a search of the home of Jelinek's on-again, off-again boyfriend, Aaron Schnagl, who has been named a person of interest in the case. Schnagl was arrested on Dec. 9 for possessing more than 12 pounds of marijuana, which deputies found at the residence after retrieving a search warrant. 

During the search at the residence, deputies found blood-stained paper towels, paper towels that had been soaked in bleach and blood stains in Schnagl's vehicle, according to a report by the Star Tribune

An analysis by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension found bloodstains in Schnagl's master bedroom, on a stairway and on a couch

Authorities have noted that Schnagl has been uncooperative in the investigation.

The documents also state that Schnagl allegedly assaulted Jelinek on three different occassions in the past where Jelinek was choked, received two black eyes and was pushed out of a moving vehicle, according to the Star Tribune's report.

Hundreds of volunteers have been searching of Jelinek in the Chisago City area with no results. 

A candle light vigil was held for Jelinek at Five Oaks Church in Woodbury.

Washington County Attorney: Love Our Kids—Lock Your Guns

0

Washington County Attorney Pete Orput

The month of December has been devastating for at least two families in the Twin Cities. Both families had a child find a gun in the home and shoot his sibling.

One of those cases ended with a 4-year-old shooting his 2-year-old brother to death; the other involved a 2-year-old shot by his 9-year-old brother while the parents were away.

Unfortunately, these cases are neither rare nor confined to our communities. In fact, a cursory Google search for toddler gunshot deaths just this month shows kids accidentally killing their siblings in Texas, Tennessee, Colorado and California.

How can these tragedies be avoided? Simple: follow the law!

In Minnesota it is a gross misdemeanor to negligently store or leave a loaded firearm in a location where the person knows, or reasonably should know, that a child is likely to gain access, unless reasonable action is taken to secure the firearm against access by the child. Minnesota law also makes it a felony to willfully deprive a child of appropriate supervision when the child suffers substantial harm as a result.

If parents are to have a loaded firearm in their home, they must either lock the gun away or prevent an accidental discharge by using a trigger lock device that prevents the gun from going off. Yet, in a recent study, researchers found that of 94 people who possessed firearms in their homes with children under seven, 36 percent admitted to keeping their firearms loaded, 45 percent did not store their guns locked and 57 percent failed to store them in a locked compartment.

These same parents undoubtedly make sure their toddlers ride in car seats buckled up, cannot access the family’s liquor cabinet or poisonous cleaners and regularly change smoke detector batteries.

So why miss the biggest threat to children’s safety in the home by leaving a loaded gun in the closet or under the mattress?

Many parents fear a home break-in during the nighttime and thus feel safer when arming themselves. While being armed may offer some security, the best defense to a home break-in is to immediately summon police via 911. All cops treat home burglaries seriously and nighttime burglaries generate one of the highest public safety responses from police. Cops, moreover, are highly trained in responding to dangerous situations like home burglaries and they do an outstanding job of keeping us protected in our homes.

Nonetheless, if a homeowner still feels the need to be armed in the home, and children are present, the safest thing to do is to put the firearm in a locked container such as a gun safe or lock box.

Trigger locks are inexpensive and provide some measure of safety against an accidental discharge, however, if you are relying on just using a trigger lock, please consider unloading the firearm as well.

While nighttime home burglaries are rare, the thought of someone breaking into our homes while our families sleep drive many of us to assuage our fear by keeping a loaded firearm in reach.

If children are in the home, however, this is not only a bad idea, it is also illegal if steps are not taken to secure the weapon. Consider instead calling 911 and let our public safety professionals protect us.

—Pete Orput, Washington County Attorney

Pets Saved, Crews Use New Tactic in Woodbury House Fire

0
0
A fire broke out at a home at the 2500 block of Timberlea Drive in Woodbury on Dec. 23.

A Woodbury police officer suffered a minor injury while breaking a window to save a pet from a home that caught fire Dec. 23, and the fire department also broke out a new tactic to battle the blaze.

The call about the house fire, at the 2500 block of Timberlea Drive, came in at 2:20 p.m., and crews were on scene just a few minutes later, said Todd Johnson, Woodbury fire chief.

The fire appears to have started in the garage, and the blaze engulfed a boat in the driveway, as well. The cause remains under investigation. The homeowners were away at the time.

Still, many of the family’s possessions were saved because firefighters used an “exterior offensive attack,” Johnson said.

“It was successful in this case,” he said.

The ranking firefighter responding to the scene makes the call on whether to use traditional defensive tactics—“surround and drown the fire,” Johnson said—or attacking the main part of the fire from the outside before going in with smaller hoses and dousing lesser flames.

“We can save those family memories, or in some cases, those family pets,” he said.

The Woodbury Fire Department has made the method, which is not unique to the city, a focus of recent training, Johnson said.

“We can’t control when a call comes in or how big the fire is, but we can minimize the damage,” he said. “That’s important.”

Firefighters from Oakdale and Cottage Grove also responded.

District 622 Teachers Show Displeasure at Board's Failure to Renegotiate Contract: No. 4 Post of 2012

0

Check out the Top 10 posts of 2012.

Oakdale Patch covered a lot of different stories, topics and events throughout 2012, but there were a few that stood out as the most read by Patch users.

We’ll be sharing the top 10 posts of the year from Oakdale Patch in days following up to the end of 2012. Share your thoughts on the stories in comments below.

The following is the No. 4 post of 2012.

Jan. 26, 2012 - With their contract expired since June 30—and their pay frozen at 2010-11 levels—more than 100 angry teachers descended on the District 622 school board meeting Tuesday, Jan. 24, in a show of force organized by the North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale teachers union.

Educators raised signs that read, “My colleague can’t make it tonight … they are working their second job” and a ripple of applause followed union board member Dennis Fendt’s proclamation that the board has “balanced the fund balance on the backs of teachers.”

“There’s no legal deadline for the board to make a new contract,” Fendt said, noting that recent legislation eliminated the Jan. 15 deadline for districts to reach agreements with teachers in order to avoid a $25 per-student penalty. “In the meantime, teachers are struggling to pay the bills.”

Tammy Worden, a math teacher at Tartan High School, said that due to inflation and rising health care costs, she now takes home less money than she did five years ago.

“I picked up night school and summer school classes so I could pay the bills,” she said. “I literally worked myself into a coma in 2009—I was hospitalized for two months and living on life support, and following that I had three more months of intense rehabilitation, but I went back to work after all that.”

Jennifer George, an algebra teacher at North High School for six years, started tearing up during her statement to the board.

“Because of the decrease in pay this year and loss of a second job, I was forced to sell my home,” she said. “I live very frugally I have no TV, no cable bill, no Internet, no computer at home. I want nothing more than to teach math the rest of my career and I hope I can afford to do so.”

Jennifer Lundgren, of Maplewood, is a special education teacher at Skyview Middle School.

“When my dad asked ‘Are you crazy?’ when I spent $20,000 on a master’s degree that earned me $2,000 a year more, I said ‘Yes,’” she said. “We are the ones that come in early, that stay late, we give up our prep time, our lunch time and our family time, and we do that willingly for our students. In return we want a fair contract.”

Dana Pederson, a special education teacher at Tartan, said she works an average of 65 hours a week and takes home $700 less a month in than she did five years ago, partially due to the unsettled contract.

“Many high school students say being a teacher is the last thing that they would want to do given the lack of pay, lack of respect, the amount of work and high probability they would need to work another job on the side,” she said. “Teachers are typically the persona of Minnesota Nice, but with this recent proposal, morale is the lowest I’ve ever seen it.”

John Kriesel's Book Chosen for Washington County Library Reading Program

John Kriesel

Small talk with folks in line at the grocery store could go beyond the weather if a Washington County Library reading program gains steam.

Library officials on Thursday announced the selection for the “One County, One Book” program for January 2013. The program asks residents to read the same book.

The selection is Still Standing: The Story of Ssg. John Kriesel, by John Kriesel as told to Jim Kosmo.

Kriesel is a state representative in the Cottage Grove area until new lawmakers are sworn in (he opted not to run again during the last election). He was appointed as Anoka County's head of veterans services in May.

People will have a chance to meet the author at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 29, at the R.H. Stafford Library in Woodbury.

From a release from the county about the book:

When SSG John Kriesel lost his legs and two buddies in a roadside bomb explosion, no one expected him to survive. He died three times on the operating table. Miracles, a lot of miracles, starting with a few grunts who refused to let him die in Iraq, ripped the young warrior from the grip of death and sent him on to four hospitals, thirty-five surgeries, and months of recovery and rehabilitation. Medical miracles put his body back together, but it was an incredible confluence of angels at every step along the way that breathed life into his shattered body.

People can participate in the One County, One Book program in a variety of ways:

  • Read the book. Copies are available for loan at all Washington County Library branches.
  • Attend a library book club meeting. Many of the library’s book clubs will be discussing Still Standing at one of their winter meetings. Check the library’s web pages for locations, dates and times.
  • Share comments on the Washington County Library’s Facebook page.

The One County, One Book project is sponsored by Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.

Adult Film Actress Won't Be Allowed to Attend Tartan Prom: No. 3 Post of 2012

Check out the Top 10 posts of 2012.

Oakdale Patch covered a lot of different stories, topics and events throughout 2012, but there were a few that stood out as the most read by Patch users.

We’ll be sharing the top 10 posts of the year from Oakdale Patch in days following up to the end of 2012. Share your thoughts on the stories in comments below.

The following is the No. 3 post of 2012.

March 21, 2012 - Tartan High School student who used Twitter to find an adult film actress to go to prom with him May 12 won't be allowed to bring the woman to the dance, according to a statement released by the school. The statement says:

"It has been reported in the national news that a Tartan student has invited a porn star to attend prom and she has accepted his invitation, subject to his paying for her airfare to Minnesota.  However, this prom date will not be allowed to attend the Tartan prom as her attendance would be prohibited under Tartan’s standard prom procedures and would be inconsistent with two school district policies, E-077 (Visitors to School District Buildings and Sites) and E-084 (School Sponsored Student Publications and Activities)."

The student, Mike Stone, told the Pioneer Press that, "My mom was a little mad, but my dad is OK with it."

He has been trying to raise money through his Twitter page to fly his date to Minnesota for the event.

Adult film actress Megan Piper, 19, who had agreed to go to prom with Stone, said the date’s probably off based on the reaction from the school and a news report that his mom was embarrassed by his actions, in an interview Wednesday, March 22.

“If I was a parent, I don’t really know what I would think,” she said. “Right now, I’m just trying to wait and see, but from the looks of it, it doesn’t look like I’ll be going.”

Piper said she has received offers from travel agencies to book and pay for her airfare from Los Angeles to Minnesota, and she’s been getting feedback from all over the world.

“Everybody loves this story,” she said. “They think it was really cute.” 

Stone is not giving up on his big night.

He told the Pioneer Press that he's considering organizing a competing prom at a hotel down the street from Tartan's prom location—the Landmark Center.

'Level 3' Predatory Offender Moves to Oakdale: No. 2 Post of 2012

Check out the Top 10 posts of 2012.

Oakdale Patch covered a lot of different stories, topics and events throughout 2012, but there were a few that stood out as the most read by Patch users.

We’ll be sharing the top 10 posts of the year from Oakdale Patch in days following up to the end of 2012. Share your thoughts on the stories in comments below.

The following is the No. 2 post of 2012.

Sept. 5, 2012 - The Oakdale Police Department is hosting a public meeting regarding a Level 3 Predatory Offender who has moved to Oakdale.

A "Level 3" offender is a convicted predatory offender who is considered a high risk for re-offense. Offenders are required to register as such. Law enforcement is required by law to notify surrounding neighborhoods usually within a three-block radius of the offender's new residence. 

As of Sept. 1, Ka Her, 36, moved to the Golfview Avenue/Golfview Lane neighborhood, according to a release from the Oakdale PD.

Her is the first Level 3 offender to move to Oakdale, said Michelle Stark, a spokeswoman of the Oakdale Police Department.

"This is our first community meeting in relation to this type of offense," Stark said. "Come to the meeting and you can get a lot of information from the Department of Corrections."

According to the release, Ker has a criminal history that includes sexual contact with adolescent females between the ages of 15 and 16 years old. The release states that the reported sexual contact included penetration and the offender used "force, threatened force and accomplices to gain compliance from his victims."

The release adds that the victims knew the offender. 

Her is not currently under an active investigation nor is he wanted in connection with any reported criminal activity, the release states.

Her has served time in prison and was released on May 8. 

The Community Notification Meeting will be at 6 p.m. on Sept. 10 at the Oakdale Discovery Center. Law enforcement officials from the Oakdale Police Department, the Minnesota Department of Correctionsand Washington County Sheriff's Office will be in attendance in addition to representatives from School District 622.

Stark said officials will offer a question-and-answer session for residents regarding the offender and the offender program.

What Was the No. 1 Story of 2012 on Oakdale Patch?

Check out the Top 10 posts of 2012.

Oakdale Patch covered a lot of different stories, topics and events throughout 2012, but there were a few that stood out as the most read by Patch users.

The following is the No. 1 post of 2012.

Dec. 11, 2012 - The Chisago County Sheriff's Office has issued a search for a 27-year-old Oakdale woman who has not been in contact with friends or family since Saturday.

Danielle Jelinek spoke with her family on Saturday, but when the family tried contacting her on Sunday they were unable to reach Jelinek, said Nikki Nieman, Jelinek's best friend.

"A bunch of people talked with her Saturday and then her family started calling on Sunday and she didn't pick up, which wasn't like her at all," Nieman said. 

Nieman said there was no indication that anything was wrong Saturday night when people spoke with Jelinek.

The family contacted the Chisago County Sheriff's Office around 2 p.m. Sunday to go to a residence in Chisago Lake Township to check on Jelinek. Jelinek was last seen at that residence before she went missing.

When deputies arrived they saw Jelinek's car and found a man there who was uncooperative in answering questions about Jelinek, said Sheriff Rick Duncan.

Deputies retrieved a search warrant and returned to the residence where they found more of Jelinek's belongings. During the search deputies also arrested the man for drug possession. 

Duncan said there is no indication that the man was involved with Jelinek's disappearance. 

"We know that this is not the first time this man was involved with law enforcement, but there was nothing that would say he had anything to do with Danielle," Duncan said. "There is no indication of foul play at this time."

Since her personal belongings and car were at the residence, Duncan said that there was enough suspcious activity at the residence to support pooling resources to find Jelinek.

The sheriff's office is working with the Minnesota State Patrol and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) to locate Jelinek. Duncan said they have a couple of leads they are looking into in hopes of finding Jelinek. 

Jelinek is a 2003 graduate of Park High School in Cottage Grove, where Jelinek grew up. Jelinek currently lives with her sister in Oakdale, Nieman said.

"She truly is the most outgoing, positive, uplifting girl you’d ever meet," Nieman said. "She can put a smile on anyone’s face. We are hoping by getting the word out that it will trigger something and help find her."

If anyone has any information regarding Jelinek's whereabouts they are encouarged to call the Chisago County Sheriff's Office at 651-213-6300.
