Perverse indeed. The DCF is the same agency that has lost children in foster care. Over 100 children in their system have died. These bastards follow the liberal principle of "punish the innocent and reward the guilty". This whole rotten situation is then compounded, no doubt, by doctors with fat egos who now don't want their opinions countermanded. Add to it the potential liability of now admitting their diagnosis was wrong and the parents, and Tufts, were right in the first place. These bastards would rather have the child die than admit they made a mistake and overreacted. I hope the parents sue the bastard doctors and DCF officials.
Frankly, I think it’s very hard for parents in MA to raise children there. I feel the same way about California.
