G > Dan, Why are you arguing about whether or not
G > CPS should be involved in underweight/overweight cases
G > when in fact CPS WAS involved in this case?

DS > I know CPS was involved.

The original news story gave no indication CPS was involved.

DS > I started this thread with the story.

Which initially cast blame only on parents.
You ""blamed"" CPS sarcastically,
But LATER we all found out CPS was heavily involved.

DS > And I stated that "CPS blew it."

G > You pointed out yourself that it was closed in 30 days!

DS > And in the title of this thread I stated "CPS blew it!"

Original news re****t you posted gave NO indication
that CPS was involved.  You said that sarcastically.

LATER re****ts revealed CPS WAS involved!

G > How much weight do you think she gained in only 30 days?

DS > I don't know, do you?

DS > But weight gain is not why the CW closed the case.

Please explain, Dan!
