[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know the process when the parent does not have physical custody of the children at the time of the investigation? Meaning that there are no children to remove and the other parent is not likely to give the parent under investigation access to the children (because they are clearly incapable of caring for them safely at that time). Is a report made and held on file for future circumstances that might include access to the children? Or what could the outcome be?[/quote]

If a child is being harmed by an individual I think you start by calling the police. If the individual is a parent who does not have any physical custody, I don’t think cps makes sense. Unless the primary parent were allowing the non custodial parent to care for / abuse the child. But if the primary parent is keeping the child away from a dangerous non custodial parent, it sounds like that’s what’s supposed to happen, and if the non custodial parent is staying away and therefore not abusing the child, there isn’t a crime to investigate [/quote]

Do CPS investigate crimes? The report has already been made (by a mandatory reporter) and the children are not in danger because they are being kept away from the unfit parent. So the question is, what happens with the investigation and what do they do? They will certainly find that the parent is incapable of caring for them at this point in time. [/quote]

If a report was made that the child’s welfare was in danger due to the non custodial parent they’ll come and investigate you and the child’s home and probably also the other parent, to make sure the other parent doesn’t currently have access to the child. But if the other parent is out of the picture because they are unfit, what exactly
Got reported? Was it reported they were being abused so you kicked him out? They’ll come investigate and make sure he’s kicked out I’m assuming. But the police should be charging him? [/quote]
