EXACTLY!!!!
On a different note, Sheriff Peterkin stated in an interview with Brian Mimms on the Noon News, that the Sheriff's Dept. received a anynomus tip @ 9:30 pm that the mother and child was at the residence the he supposedly abducted from, and after the arrivial of the 1st WRAL Reporter @ 10:30 pm knocking on the door and physically speaking to the mother and calling the Sheriff's Dept. and explaining to them that he had personally spoken to the mother, the Sheriff's Dept. still hadn't sent an officer to investigate the anyonmus tip they received @ 9:30pm.

There are so many stories where social services workers did something that was hurtful to children and adults alike. Worse, I don't think they should have power to simply remove a child from a mother who has not harmed the child.
So, the lady "underwent a psychological evaluation" and based on those results, she was determined to be a danger to the child? I'd be more interested to know whether she had ever hurt or threatened to hurt the child. To heck with the "psychological evaluation". I want facts, not opinions -- and that's precisely what that is.
Here's my opinion: taking the son away from a loving mother hurts them both.
