For those who think that CPS is dying to permanently remove kids from their parents on a whim, or think the Rekietas are probably not getting their kids back, here are some stories/info from Minnesota...
How Minnesota’s child protection system exposes kids to more abuse, neglect
I don't find it that shocking tbh, I'm not gonna bring up muh science reddit statistics and all that, but I never ever hear anything good about CPS ever, whether in USA, UK or Europe.
Social workers are always overworked, poorly paid and burn out quickly. I never heard anything different. They usually serve the poorest and least educated people, who have little impulse control and emotional intelligence. It's gotta be horrendous seeing unhappy, hurt children all day, every day, and then be severely constrained by the amount of time and gubmint money you are allowed to spend on each case - I could never do that job, it would kill me.
Which is why it's fucking outrageous that Nick and Kayla, with all the resources they've had, wealth and family and education etc. - decided to put their children in a position where being taken away by CPS is a safer option.
And that, rather than do EVERY FUCKING THING in their power to get kids back asap, they decided to be uncooperative. Didn't allow full access, didn't submit results from their drug tests.
And even worse - with everything that Nick said on air about CPS, and particularly mentioning one of the workers in a threatening manner to an audience that consists largely of brainwashed retards, who consider Nick to be some sort of a hero. How fucking irresponsible is that?? Your children are in hands of social workers and you're talking shit about them? What's the priority here?
Sure, CPS sucks. But let's not take the focus off of who's actually the worst here. Nick and Kayla had everything a pair of parents could ever had to NEVER EVER had to interact with CPS in any way, shape or form. And they voluntarily destroyed it all.
