WOW...sounds like the state it's being abusive...

Just keep voting for the state to have more power over our lives... eventually we will have cameras in every room of our house to make sure we don't do anything that may harm ourselves or someone else. fucking socialist crap... welcome to the first days of 1984

CPS in this state is a mess.

There are so many cases of REAL abuse they don't do anything to stop, and then you see them wasting time on something like this.

Check into Clare county sometime... biggest case of a county over stepping thier bounds I have ever seen. They use the social programs (food stamps/medicade) to get into your house. They require a home check int hat county to sign you up for those services... then, at the slightest hint of wrong doing... to many dirty dishes in the sink... you accuse you of child neglect/abuse and take your kids. The county then gets a check to care for the child... and it fills the county coffers.

it makes me sick.

I nearly threw up reading that Gaf.... truly inhumane...and unjust...

WOW....I really think the state should be punished somehow. They just put that family through SO MANY LEVELS of wrong that no family should ever have to go through.

Truely sick. That family really should sue, and I rarely believe that lawsuits are just. This case is an exception to that in my book.

It's not only the agency here though. It could have stopped at the security guy or cop. They were on the scene... They would have seen the father react and gauged that his answers were honest. Everyone wants to be a hero and they fuck with people's lives. But yeah.. State agencies often piss me off. They're supposed to be there to help people in need not create atrocities.
