This poor kid. Thinking that CPS will 'help' him? I live in an area with more than twice, the national average of child abuse. Some kids are living thru hell & countless people call CYS to help them but they go into the child's school,interrogate child & promise they won't tell the abuser(parent)what they kid says. Then they go into the home, tell the parents exactly what the kid said, look in the cupboards, see food then LEAVE the child with those really angry abusers who the child just 'ratted on'. Over & over again it happens to the child until they just begin to lie & say they're fine despite black eyes & shabby clothes. Try to get people together to do something about it? Suddenly you'll start receiving anon. threats. CYS doesn't help kids. They do threaten those who try to, tho.
