Yea, I’m glad I didn’t call CPS. The management of the store we were in actually called mall security who in turn called the cops.

I’m sure if/ when he is released to his mom, they would be monitored to make sure he’s ok, right?

You may not have called CPS…but with the cops involved, I would be shocked if the cops didn’t report the suspected child abuse. Law requries certain type of professionals to report them.

LOL…yes…you would hope and think that CPS would monitor these things right? Doesn’t always happen. Although it wasn’t the CPS…remember the Jaycee Dugard case? Parole officers visited the house…actually saw a pre-teen in a convicted pedaphile’s house…and didn’t do anything b/c they were told it was his niece! :hinna:

Here’s an extreme example: Washington: Three foster children sued CPS and won 7.3 million dollars And many others stories out there.

HUGE difference between what should happen…versus what actually happens. :bummer:
