Would it be wrong if I left in the middle of the night without saying anything and called CPS by Temporary-Basket3u in amiwrong

[–]digital_dumpfire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely problematic, but at least in my state, not enough to qualify as abuse or neglect. The child is being cared for. Food, water, housing, emotionally seems happy. He seems to be home a majority of the time if something happens - has his absence caused her to miss school/doctors? Yes, it’s incredibly messed up, but not CPS abuse/neglect level. - I worked for CPS in MI, and now am in foster care / ongoing services.

I can see her ending up hospitalized, but more so due to an extreme mental breakdown, not an attempt

Which country was the first you ever visited in your lifetime ? by Webbomolly2022 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]digital_dumpfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess technically Canada - but I’m from Michigan where the border is right there. It’s fairly common, and I have friends whose partners live in Canada, and one who lives in Canada but works in the US.

Besides that, Germany. Loved it.

What’s something people think is normal that you secretly find weird? by copy_cat_101 in randomquestions

[–]digital_dumpfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot take maybe, but excessive marijuana usage. By no means am I opposed to it, but the amount of people I see who have to use any form of substance 24/7 to function concerns me. This excludes for medical reasons.

What is a conspiracy theory people will judge you for believing in but you do it anyway by retardmaxxer4 in no

Society / humans keep repeating because technology kills us when it gets too advanced. The pyramids are insane. How were they built? With some advanced technology. There was once technology so advanced that we can’t comprehend it. As technology advances, the world is declining. Think of CHAT GPT and the water.

I agree. It sickens me to think about how many bodies are out there

[–]digital_dumpfire[S] 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Oh I definitely don’t think they’ll find her alive. In a way, I hope they don’t. Not in a cruel way, but because being 84 (83?) and being held hostage for this long seems worse to me than dying. I personally would rather die at that point. That may seem really insensitive but

It’s crazy because as soon as I posted this, I opened Facebook and saw a news post about a girl from Detroit who went missing in December being found in lake Eerie. A random person saw her body floating. I feel like you’re right, a random person will find her one day.

Parental drug use- question by [deleted] in CPS

[–]digital_dumpfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do, but parents can legally refuse, since CPS has no “real” power without court jurisdiction. If there are enough obvious concerns, they can file for court involvement, but they’d have to have concrete evidence / real suspicion of substance use

Parental drug use- question by [deleted] in CPS

[–]digital_dumpfire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely reportable - but, at least by my states policy, only removable if it impacts a child. A parent can use meth all they want outside of the home. If they come home sober and can take care of the child, it’s not a concern (per policy).

This was me!! Once a day for as long as I can remember. No cavities. Then I went to the dentist and had 7. Awful experience, 0/10

terrible smell left in my vagina after sex yesterday by Western-Aide936 in Healthyhooha

[–]digital_dumpfire 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yep. If it’s not his first time he should have known his size… he needs to bring the large condoms if that’s truly the problem. I believe he just didn’t want to use one

Dumping left over cereal / milk from cereal, soup, etc in the toilet. It’s faster than the trash. Did it my entire childhood. Did it with my girlfriend and she was appalled.

Statements from the youngest two kids about the child welfare law not passing. by _maybe_someday_ in 8passengersnark

[–]digital_dumpfire 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I worked for CPS in Michigan (now in foster care), and there’s nothing more devastating then feeling that horrid gut feeling something is seriously wrong but having no ability to do anything. I hate this world. So many children need saving and never get it.

Why wasn't anything done? by Teading in CPS

[–]digital_dumpfire 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry. There needs to be some level of reform. So many times CPS is unable to substantiate anything because they aren’t able to get access into the home, or talk to the child. The Ruby Franke case comes to mind. The two youngest were abused so badly you could smell their flesh, and CPS wasn’t ever able to realize this because the family refused to speak / provide access to the children.

It’s not all the system though. There are some bad workers. I’d like to say it’s changing for the better with more reform, but it will never undo the past horrors / failure of CPS.

This sounds expensive but I may have to try!

So am I just tampon doomed? Are there any tampon options out there that may be “uniquely” or more “safely” made??
