The wide authority given to CPS doesn't help either. If you come to their attention the CPS will be a terrible nuisance, waste your time in court and maybe take your kid. A lot of parents probably would give their kids more freedom if they weren't one busybody with a cell phone away from being on CPS bad list.

It's one of the many issues that comes back to people trying to exert unnecessary control over others, "you shouldn't be raising your kid that way" and so on.
