[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These responses have become unmoored from the actual incident. Here’s the OP:

“Things that I find [b]common that the kids do[/b] irk and [b]trigger anger fo[/b]r DH and we’ve decided to start counseling to work on our communication and be better parents. [b]In the latest incident[/b], DH grabbed DD because she was screaming inside and wouldn’t stop after repeatedly being asked. He left marks on her”

So what do we have here? Irked. Angered. Asked daughter multiple times verbally to stop. Grabbed daughter. Daughter has “marks,” don’t know how hard or what kind vs whether these were just the brief red transient type you’d expect when a man grabs a child. Couple is now in mutually agreed upon voluntary therapy to improve communication and parenting. Both parents being open and honest.

That’s it. That’s all. If you think this warrants a formal agency investigation by an agency whose job it is to —surprise! recommend parenting classes & therapy they themselves just initiated —and remand children to foster care you yourself should be investigated. There is no way someone with half a brain would lose their license over not reporting this.[/quote]

Bolded the serious warning signs. I would report this. If he’s so committed to therapy and change a CPS recommendation for therapy will do him no harm. [/quote]
