“Society is outraged when CPS shows up to do a welfare check because CPS is “harassing them for no good reason.” Society is outraged when a child is abused and neglected because CPS did not intervene or was not allowed to “harass them for no good reason”.”I heard a woman talking today about how she & her husband were interrogated by the police after her infant died of SIDS. The cops claimed there was a bruise on the child & wanted to know if there had been an “accident”. Turns out they made it up. No bruise, they were just fishing.My point was that this guy’s outrage was over the top. Waxing indignant because CPS showed up is silly. CPS has to follow up on EVERY call, bogus or not. This particular woman bungled the situation, of course.
