US: Confessions of a Caseworker: We Remove Kids to Protect Ourselves (Opinion)

➡ From Child Welfare Information Gateway NJ:

US: Confessions of a Caseworker: We Remove Kids to Protect Ourselves (Opinion)
Youth Today – February 22, 2017
One of the things caseworkers often say is just not true. Caseworkers often claim they are “damned if we do and we’re damned if we don’t.” But when it comes to taking away children, caseworkers are only damned if they don’t. It’s one of the reasons so many children are needlessly consigned to the chaos of foster care. Now, a leader of a union representing caseworkers has admitted as much.
