who cant spank? people are making excuses for abuse
If you spank your child and the child tells the teacher at school, Child Protective Services will come to your house to investigate. Kids hold all the cards these days, parents are the bitch of the children.
CPS does not just take children away from the home. They investigate the allegations,talk to neighbors, doctors,family members etc...
Abuse claims have to meet several levels of criteria before a child is removed from the home (which usually involves a court order)... And the burden of proof is on the case worker.
CPS will also work to improve the childs environment first before they consider removing them from their family. Which usually includes counceling and parenting classes, as well as multiple home visits.
Not true.
Sometimes they make a big deal out of diaper rash and misdiagnose hemangiona. All they need is an "in" and not only is proving one's innocence absurd, but just letting them take a look around is dangerous.
Most investigators are young and don't have kids so the concept of no TV to them is abuse.
