- lobotryas 13y agoYou make it sound like CPS is the innocent underdog trying to do good. How do you reconcile that with the long list of criticism the organization has drawn over the years? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_Protective_Services#Criticism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_Protective_Services#Criti... ?

- makomk 13y agoDid you actually read the link? "The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services had itself been an object of reports of unusual numbers of poisonings, death, rapes and pregnancies of children under its care since 2004." "Texas Child Protective Services was hit with a rare if not unprecedented legal sanction for a "groundless cause of action" and ordered to pay $32,000 of the Spring family's attorney fees. Judge Schneider wrote in a 13-page order, "The offensive conduct by (CPS) has significantly interfered with the legitimate exercise of the traditional core functions of this court."" Suuuure, the only reason people object is because they want to be able to beat their children. Yeah right.
