[QUOTE="farmerbyron, post: 2655906, member: 4953"] This wasn't a pot smoking neighbor kid watching the kid. It was his biological parents. Instead the kid was transferred to a foster home that had criminal history and were clearly watching foster kids for money. I too wonder what prompted a CPS visit but what if it were a harassment call by a nosey moral police minded neighbor that didn't approve of the kids parents? Also I wonder if there were no family of either parent available to watch the kids while this stupid law was dealt with. These morality laws are so misguided. Mandatory minimums for weed possession, lose kids due to use of MJ, etc. Especially when the child was in apparent good health and care outside the MJ technicality. Your criteria of "immediate custody of the child is capable of handling any of that childs needs" is very broad and very much could be interpreted to include alcohol impairment. It was poor judgement by the state to remove a child in good health and care save for the caveat of MJ use. I for one hope these parents receive a ridiculous settlement but if it were my child, those foster parents had better hope they never get out of prison. [/QUOTE]
