Part 1: With having high interest in childrens welfare DCS and judicial systems have me in doubts that ways of government services are doing things is indeed in a childs favor for safety and well being Is DCS really worried for the child or do they just want that $3000 a month ?What requirements must be met to play the role of god to take a child from its home?And what is abuse really? Neglect is as easy as going in to pay for gas 10’ from your car and leaving the child strapped in a car seat sound asleep?

I remember the days you were in the front seat jumping up and down singing.If mom stopped to get gas that’s when you could punch the crap out of your sibling and if a policeman drove by he just smiled and laughed.So why is a concerned parent paying the same price as a parent that broke its childs legs or took a cigarette to a childs skin,or chained a child to a bed post for days on end? Now where is justice and why does DCS get involved in so many childrens lives when they cant even handle the cases they have at the time to go take a child from a mother who just ran in 10’ away to pay for gas,maybe she would have been better off just driving off and not paying for it,I ask which one is the real crime now a days?
