There has been always an ongoing debate whether the measures taken by Child Protective Services (CPS) are not too excessive. For example, it is obviously clear that separating a child from his family by force, even for a few hours, will definitely cause him lifelong issues.
Sometimes a child is separated from his family just to be returned a few days later. Some people may want to protect their kids from such an outcome.
National Foster Youth Institute claims that 50% of homeless population spent time in foster care. Is it always a good idea to separate a child from his family and put it into foster care?
Here is the map of Child Protective Services Activity.
Frequently asked questions:
I have high income. Are my kids safe from Child Protective Services investigation?
The link between average income and CPS activity is weak. The correlation between average purchasing power of each state and CPS activity is only ~ -0.3. High income does not protect your kids from the CPS Investigation.
