"...Children always are better with their biological parents..."

Out of this whole article that leaves me speechless, this is perhaps one of the most asinine, completely stupid statements that makes me grit my teeth at the astounding stupidity of government offices at all levels of government that deal with this.

CHILDREN ARE NOT ALWAYS 'BETTER WITH THEIR BIOLOGICAL PARENTS"!!!!! IN MANY CASES IT IS THEIR "BIOLOGICAL PARENTS" THAT ARE THE MAIN PROBLEM!

Perhaps, but who, in their right mind, would want to grant any bureaucratic agency the right to decide which parents are fit and which aren't, and subsequently rip the children away from the parents? The system we have now, with CPS, is one of the most totalitarian aspects of our government ever devised. What greater threat is there than to take away ones children? Just because .00001% of the parents in this country are unfit, we would grant the government the authority to terrorize all of us with threats of stealing our children? Hell no.

The best solution is for neighbors to look out for each other. If a neighbor child has it rough, be a surrogate parent when you can. If the actions of the parents are criminal, call the police specifically for that crime (such as assault or rape).
