Meanwhile there are parents to constantly abuse verbally and physically their kids and they have more and more babies.
you call cps and they do nothing. Honestly, I think the only babies they actually make an effort to take her babies like this who don't need them.
@@MistressOP Yes they took my baby with false allegations and a case worker who had her mind made up I was the devil before even meeting me. I never hurt my kid, we were poor and an easy target to sell my kid to a foster family. They didn't have any reason to terminate my parent rights so now I pay child support to a family that won't let me see my daughter. She will be 10 this year and Texas will not let me fight back and ignore my filing in court. I call CPS on 2 kids who I found home alone for a week the mom gets to keep them. I think they want kids that aren't scarred by abuse they are easier to sell off to the highest bidding adoption family.
Doctors should be charged for falsifying diagnosis and injuries. Absolutely unacceptable.
I hope they got a new pediatrician
Is it considered medical malpractice for an MD to misdiagnose and then provide a false report upon the mis-diagnosis? Did the Doctor mis-diagnose on purpose?
I think so
Traumatizing. This will alter their natural parenting now.
It SUCKS that parents need to literally be fearful of taking their kiddos to the doctor because of this nonsense!😡😡😡
Dr. Lam and the Hospital should be investigated and Lam should lose her license.
Young couples and single mothers are often investigated by CPS for founded or unfounded abuse. Its true that there are parents that abuse their children. But not all young couples or single mothers are abusive. I would say it was a case of age discrimination of being a young couple.
My daughter pulled a tv down on herself when she was two while in her grandma's care. When we took her to the children's hospital they investigated her dad and I, even though we were both working and had proof. They accused her grandma of covering for us. Luckily the Dr in charge of her care said it was a clean break and was not made by abuse. They wouldn't let us take her home til they deemed us cleared
So glad they still have there baby. Wish this family and many others didn't have to deal with situations like this.
I am a parent and if I would have seen this video I WOULD HAVE BEEN SCARED TO DEATH TO TAKE MY CHILD TO THE DR 😩😮when our daughter was 18 months she got a black eye 😩 and big brother did it can you imagine if I would have taken her to the hospital 🤬
Yup it's a nightmare. But that's the response we hope to see from CPS. I'm sorry you got caught up but without this rigorous investigation so many children end up abused any dead.
No, you are so wrong! Did you not hear the video. Smh, once it was shown a misdiagnosed, these parents should've been left alone. It's the ppl that truly need looked into is never looked into.
This is absolutely NOT how I want CPS to respond. I want skilled doctors who understand babies, skilled radiologists who understand how to read films from babies who are very different than adults, and I don’t want to see “mandated reporters” who fail to be through, objective, and unbiased when it comes to reporting child abuse. When doctors make mistakes that result in CPS involvement and those mistakes are realized, STOP wasting resources. Every parent does NOT need a psychological evaluation (under duress) and “parenting classes”.
These parents are now documented child neglecters. This can affect their careers and future. CPS should have never been involved in the first place, but at the very least should have immediately dismissed the case as unfounded as soon as they proved there was no skull fracture to begin with.
Having CPS involved is dangerous even when you are a very good parent. It invokes fear and anxiety in parents and children, it interferes with family relationships, misuses taxpayer money and CPS time and resources, and one biased case worker could have destroyed this family.
The whole system needs to be completely dismantled and rebuilt
The guy narrating couldn’t be more monotone and bored sounding
He’s trying to go for a Vice sound
Sorry dude you ARE doing things to her that are demeaning....doesnt have to be physical.
WTF are you talking about? Who's doing stuff that's demanding to her?.Those parents haven't and isn't doing anything to their baby that's negative and was wrongfully accused of a misdiagnosed skull fracture that wasn't even a fracture or anything..
I think it's suspicious that the state came into their lives, meanwhile how many children have died in their parents care in this state...how ridiculous to assume these people abused their baby..get a life...
