Is CPS on topic for this NG? From FAQ's
Written by Neal. Whose keen intelligence is sorely missed.
C 8) Are discussions about Child Protective Services on topic on a.p.s.? Absolutely! Since Children's Protective Services, by whatever local name they go by, deal with issues of child abuse and since several extreme position posters continue to claim that all spanking is child abuse, even that which is clearly legal in all fifty states of the union, the discussion of CPS is entirely on topic, because people should be entirely aware of what exactly they are doing and causing if they report someone to one of these agencies. Another newsgroup specifically about CPS is alt.support.child-protective- services, and posts can be made there as well, but since the world is not as ultracompartmentalized as some would wish it to be, such posts are also on topic in a.p.s. Those who object most strenuously to posts in the newsgroup about CPS are those who tend to advocate or play apologist for those agencies and do not wish the general public to know the truth about these agencies. Comment by Fern: CPS has intruded upon millions of families over the past 27 years when CAPTA enacted. CPS is absolutely on point for this NG.
