Rights of the Parent: What constitutes abuse?

in familyprotection •  7 years ago 

Good point but I also do think that there is now more of a need to be able to validate one's claim of being a good parent because of the government overreach that already exists. For example, I think I am a good parent but if something happened that even accidentally called my parenting into question, what records would I have to prove that I was indeed a good parent? This article was great and got us all talking, which is encouraging because these topics do not even seem to make a ripple in political campaigns.

That's a good point. But the problem still remains that the existence of records like that and interpretation thereof are two entirely separate issues. From what I've heard, one issue Finland is plagued by is the fact that in case a parent or a child at least 12 years of age is against a care order, the case will be handled by an administrative court. The standards of evidence in an administrative court and the process are different from a district court.
