This is beyond stupid.
So now someone is going to control and judge how long parents can “reasonably” determine their child is in danger, etc.?
Talk about feeling like you are under the government’s thumb on a daily basis. It’s none of their freaking business. They are not their kids. Now, if we were losing kids like this to the tune of 100,000 a year, there may be some minimal law to...No. There is no excuse for the government to get involved here.

RobRoy, I couldn’t have said it better myself.
Yep...
Knee-jerk legislation is a bad idea.
Emotion-driven, tear-jerker legislation is a bad idea.
Normally it is Demo-Commies who do that. There is no excuse for someone with an ‘R’ next to their name, who should know better, following suit.
Yup - these laws enacted in response to highly emotional events always have serious unintended consequences and are often abused and selectively enforced.

They are not their kids. Now, if we were losing kids like this to the tune of 100,000 a year, there may be some minimal law to...”
We are, through abortion. If they want to do something that shows they care, take care of that first...
Agreed.
There’s a saying in the legal community: “Tough cases make bad law.”
You are completely correct.
Now I will step aside and let your pillorying continue....there is only so much I can do. :o)
