[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 288597, member: 1550"] Marg, hey :) In the US you can tell your neighbor whatever you want to about whomever you like and it's not actionable. She can indeed get a group of parents together by talking about the situation, and she can even express why she feels it is happening. I live in Gossip City. There are no laws against things that you say, even if it's untrue or turns out to be untrue or is just speculation. If a child without Aspergers was brought up in a kooky way he would likely be just as screwed up. I'm guessing there is a lot more than Aspergers to this child. From the sound of it, the parents ARE trying to get help. He's on medications. He's seeing somebody, God only knows who, but somebody. The word "Aspergers" is thrown around here like a hot potato. But the point really isn't the label or if this child gets the proper help or even if he can. We all know that not all kids can be helped. I will stand by that--I tried to help and adopt a boy who was already lost. Some kids are born weird--Jeffrey Dahmer, Wisconsin's famous cannibal, did not really have a horrible upbringing. He did see his parents divorce. Whoppee! Half the kids alive see their parents divorce and they don't eat people. His sibling is ok. Same with Ted Bundy. His sibling was the one who turned him in. Teddy had a normal home life too. What makes them this or that way? We don't really know. People without difficult children always think it's the parenting. I don't think tha's fair or right, especially since the same parents can raise four great kids and one who is dangerous to society. I think there's a large genetic factor combined with possible physical problems that we haven't learned about yet. At any rate, here in the US again :happy: anyone can call CPS just because they suspect there MAY be child abuse. A nasty neighbor, who got mad at me, once called CPS because my kids were playing in the street. Well, it was a dead end street with no traffic and all kids played in it. The CPS worker HAD to come up and visit. She left in five minutes, laughing, but if this woman suspects this child is not being parented in a safe or good way, she can call CPS. It's an option she has. They can be very, very bad and they can be very, very good. CPS can be the first step in getting state funding for an Residential Treatment Center (RTC).
