Increasingly, parental rights in their child's healthcare are challenged by clinicians, social workers, and other healthcare system factotums. At times, they cite state child abuse/neglect laws.

Children: child abuse or child neglect; exceptions to the definition of child neglect; provide.OR ANY BUSINESS PROPERLY BEFORE THIS COMMITTEE
