I have seen so many posts on this and i have to come to see it is spreading like wild fire. How can you say you are helping the child and you take the child away from where love is guaranteed? When the chips are down, family is all you need. It is totally unacceptable to subject a child that young to the rigour and mental torture of not being cared for. They are not helping, it takes only a determined child not to leave crushed. Rather than take them away, help the parent instead. Make sure the child stay around family that cares. It gives a sense of worth and belonging. Actions under the pretext of Child Protection Services is wickedness with total disregard for consequences. They have good intentions but family trumps it all. Protect the family and watch the society get better.
