Another question I answered got me going...
In general, does the public think CPS is a good/ bad idea... Think about it, is it not in the childs best interest to be with the parents unless absolutly immediate threat to the child is present?
I know of a few cases...
1) Man in cali got CPS called on him for not giving his daughter a medicine that caused her more health problems then the one she already had.. Has been fighting back and forth for 5 years, lots of money, and his wife has been in and out of the hospital ever since with anxiety...

2) Me :) I dont vaccinate my children. Recieved a call last year saying I had CPS called on me ect... I could not for the life of me figure out why, then it hit me, my son was just in the hospital... So I asked if it was because I didnt vaccinate, sure enough, that was in the report, although the basis was said to be because I didnt fill a perscription... Which I never got... Because vaccinating is a choice, they couldnt call on the basis of not vaccinating, so they did it under false pretenses of not filling a perscription... Once medical records were obtained (I released them, since I knew I never got a script!) they saw there was never any script given... It was for a ear infection my son had... he was given higher dosages through IV for 3 days in the hospital since this was his 3rd one in 2 months.... Why wouldnt I have just given him the meds? Wouldnt I want him better?
Should health care workers be able to call CPS if you dont administer every med they throw at you?

I think a LOT of kids are taken away needlessly... If I didnt have food in my cubbored when they were 6 months old, they could have taken them away... What does me having laundry sitting out folded (they look for "clutter") have to do with how I take care of my kids?

And of course, I think in theory, being able to protect children is absolutly wonderful. We need too, there are very very bad people out there. But we really have no rights. Anyone can claim ANYTHING about you, and its truth... That is not right....
I can choose not to vaccinate because I feel like it hurts my kids. Religious reasons, dont like the word... It doesnt matter WHY I dont do it, its the point that I dont want to, for one reason or another... As americans, dont we have the choice what to put into our bodies?
