[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think preventing all contact with the children until the parents' hearing on the 18th is in the best interest of the children. That's more than two weeks away. Look, these people are idiots, and the "system" needs to step in to ensure that these children will be safe. But not allowing those children to see their parents for weeks is just not helpful to the kids and their longterm emotional development. [/quote] I have to agree here. I am a parent and disgusted by what happened. Unless they can prove this is an ongoing thing with these parents, the kids should see their parents until the trial. [/quote] Agree. The parents were selfish and idiots but [b]I have a 25 month old and know [/b]that toddlers that age still experience separation anxiety. For the kid's sake, they need to let the parents contact. Even a parent with bad judgement is better than strangers. Poor kids I feel so upset imagining they don't get contact with the parents (who incidentally deserve to be publicly humiliated). [/quote] You have a child and know...what? everything there is to know about child development, and the problems that neglectful and abusive parents may create? Clearly not or you would know that not all kids are securely attached to their parents, and some may be better off with other, better, caregivers than with the ones who are genetically related to them. Ones they can trust, who won't leave them alone in the cold to nap and then not come when they cry. It's Tuesday, the kids are back in their usual daycare, those are probably the caregivers they're most bonded to anyway, if their parents are as neglectful as this makes it seem.[/quote]
