re: Indiana parents warn nation after child is removed from home for improper pronoun usage

well then what was it for? if they were never charged and convicted for abuse, then what was it? a hunch? they abducted a minor from his nuclear family over a hunch of eating disorder abuse?

"A DCS family case manager investigated the reports and met with the parents, A.C. and A.C.’s siblings, and spoke with an employee of A.C.’s school."

the parents had withdrawn A.C. from school and DCS “was unaware of the family’s intent to enroll Child in a new school”; and the parents had “discontinued” any therapy for A.C.’s mental health issues.

this is what led to the child being removed from the home. that isn't a hunch.

I could definitely see it being an overzealous Department of Child Services employee, but there were multiple steps taken and followed.

is that a requirement when it comes to child services?

seems like parents should take their broken kid back to the stork and get a new one
