As a social worker, this is 100% something that would get CPS involved then they’d continue to stay involved for the many, many things I’m sure they’d uncover. Medical neglect is the first major thing that is an easy way for them to open a case (some things take a ton of proof but this is pretty cut and dry). Also, you can get in serious trouble for not registering a baby in the US within a certain time frame. Hope someone called CPS on her. Wild.
I really hope so, thankfully her family was very concerned and I’m hoping they made the call. I think right wing extremists are so dangerous to their children and I’m hoping CPS begins to be more insistent on removing these poor kids.
They do as long as they have enough evidence to back up their request to remove the children. The problem is, there are a ton of really messed up things and emotional abuse but emotional abuse is one of the hardest things to prove. So people get mad that children haven’t been removed but don’t understand that it’s really hard to do. Things like physical abuse are easy for removal cause there’s usually obvious signs once an investigation has taken place. I don’t work for CPS but adjacent to them- any children they remove are referred to my agency where we do the follow up mental health treatment and visits for the family.

Have you had kids like these families in your service before? I think it must be like deprogramming.
