CYFS and police inconsistant


We have a case where a 13-year old girl gave birth to a child fathered by a 20 year old person she was having sex with for at least two years.

CYFS knew about it, so does the police. Police have decided not to lay charges. Nothing to see here, no evidence, apart form a child, move on. The whanau is not talking. THe girl will get the dpb in a few years but the 20-year old will not be paying child support you can bet on that.

You can also bet that if this was a smacking case the family would not be talking either - but police would be visiting the family because CYFS would be pushing for charges. Thats because CYFS are the new child abuse police and what they say goes.
