Book Reviews of The War Against Parents
Book Review: impassioned treatment of mistreatment of American family
Summary: 5 Stars
I particularly like the focus of the authors on the proliferation of "experts" intruding into the integrity and privacy of the family.CPS are blasted for being often mistaken, negligent, and malicious in their intrusions into family life. Parents have been disempowered by their decisions, and are literally afraid to make a move with their children, lest they be accused of abuse by the "experts"
The hysteria about child abuse has spawned an industry which continues to grow without any checks accountability or oversight. The taxpayer merely can foot the bill and the media have sat back while without doing any real investigations of increasingly tryannous behavior on the part of CPS.
