I agree that I should have hit the internet and did some googling. That is a very fair point. I'm not sure why it didn't cross my mind. It may be because I was working most of the weekend.

I figured you had to be associated with them in some fashion. Like I said before, I could only imagine how mentally taxing it must be to deal with what a CPS worker deals with on a day to day basis. The type of people that they have to deal with must be unbelievable. I couldn't imagine having to be cordial with a child abuser as I'm removing their child from the home. I'm not so sure I'd be able to handle it.

It's fine that you're coming in here to add your perspective, and defend your wife's profession, but it seems as though you don't want to acknowledge at all that this specific situation could send a parents mind spinning. I don't think that is fair.

Which is why I want to give out the best possible information to calm those fears now and for anyone reading in the future.

99 percent of people are great parents. CPS exists for those who are not. The 99 percent of great parents should never fear CPS and my goal is to help them understand that and Why.
