Emotional and psychological abuse are just as bad as physical abuse.
These parents are over the line. At the very least, they need some supervision and some parenting classes.
Narcissists often abuse their children emotionally.
I feel sorry for these three little guys.
i do too... i saw this family on Wife Swap earlier this week... yesterday i mentioned something about these "poor kids," and someone basically told me not to judge them just because i choose not to enjoy interesting things in life! i think the more that these parents show themselves, especially the father, the more people will see that they are truly self-centered...
Do these folks work at all.
I feel sorry for them too but being a bad parent is no reason to call CPS.
If a child’s life isn’t in danger, CPS needs to stay out of the mix.
You want CPS to investigate every family who may be emotionally abusing their kids?
What about when they tell us that teaching our children that abortion is wrong is emotionally abusing them.
Who makes that judgement? You, me, liberals, NAMBLA?
How about respecting people’s rights to privacy and raising their children how they see fit.
Exactly! If they are making the kids go along with a lie for self promotion that is emotional abuse. You have a right to raise your kids any way you want but you do not have a rght to abuse them ever.
