Hello OneMoreTime,

You list a curious set o f people who might love your daughter. I'm not sure why you'd think anyone would love your daughter more than yourself and her father. I mean, that's the normal situation of humans, right? that the parents love their children.

So who is it who might assume otherwise? I think we agree on this. There is a faction of the contemporary society -- in schools, medical & psych services, judges, CPS -- who are extremely quick to dispossess parents of their rights as parents on the presumption that the parents are abusive.

The assumption that the parents are abusive is a deprivation of rights of the accused. Along with this assumption that parents are abusive is a change in the definition of abuse to include "harassment" which can be defined very broadly.

Depriving parents of the right to parent is wrong. I think you and I agree on that.
