“The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled this week that authorities can seek custody of a child, even where there’s no evidence of abuse or neglect. The case involved a divorced Camden County mother of 9-year-old twin girls. In 2007, she asked New Jersey’s Division of Child Protection and Permanency for help, claiming she was unable to care for the girls who had psychological and developmental disabilities and needed to be placed in residential care. ‘You can turn to the Division for help, but it may come with a cost,’ says Diana Autin, executive director of Statewide Parent Advocacy Network of New Jersey.”
