That's what I was wondering about. My fiance is going to school for social work, as she hates to see children get abused. She has a big heart, which is good, but I think that she is going to see that the CPS has way to much power in the long run.
I think it is the power that's corrupting. It's an important function of government, I think, but being as it's staffed with psychology majors - no offense to any out there - on average the weirdest group of people in academia.
