You have complete faith that the parents' story is the whole story.  Why is that?[/quote]

I don't see any reason to doubt that the parents' story is the whole story. What reason do you have to doubt that the parents' story is the whole story? Besides the circular one of: it must not be the whole story, because otherwise CPS wouldn't be doing all this stuff.[/quote]

As a teacher, I've been involved tangentially in enough CPS situations to know that there's never just one side of the story.  I'm not doubting that the facts that the PP listed were true, just that they aren't the only facts.  We don't know what story the kids told when they were questioned without their parents, and whether they reported incidents when they were left alone in the house, which is illegal in MCPS.  We don't know exactly what the kids were doing when they were picked up, were they crossing the street in a manner that was unsafe?  We don't know what CPS was told when they contacted the children's school.
