Reform DSS

The Issue

Innocent until proven guilty by due process of law" has been a fundamental principle, laid in foundation of the legal USA authority. By some reason it is not the base for the family law. DSS can forcefully separate children from parents, relying on false reports. While it was meant for "greater good" tremendous harm is the result. Many decent families cannot get their children back for years, and they waste their time, efforts and finances for lawsuits instead of children betterment. Even if not separated, the philosophy of "not good enough" parents creates tension and fear of DSS terror in many families, which is wrong environment for child-raising. Intrusion of government agency into family should not be allowed, unless there is a crime, proven in a court of law before children are separated. Please reform DSS and confirm this agency to the fundamental principles of law.
