Your post helps make sense of the situation. And as a parent, it great information to have.
But, would you agree that the DR. was wrong to call social services and the police were wrong to allow social services to take custody of the child?
I livid reading the story starting with the dr. wanting to do a spinal tap and having a hissy fit when told NO. Reading your explanation, the DR’s demanded treatment wasn’t unreasonable, but his behavior afterwards was. It seems to me that he seriously failed here, because if he had presented the situation as clearly as you did, then there quite possibly would have been a different outcome.
Y’all are going to make me actually read the article aren’t you....
