What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Kentucky
I have standard visition with my son who is 5 years old. I picked him up this past weekend and while changing him found a large bite mark on his bottom that had left brusing and teeth marks. He told me that Josh had bit him to teach him a lesson. Josh is my ex-wifes husband. I did call the police and took him to a dr who did a report. CPS granted me temporary protective custody. Today I received a call from CPS stating that my son would be going back to his mothers tonight. They did not speak with my son. My ex-wife had told them that it was an accident that Josh had just been playing around. I am very uncomfortable about the fact that a grown man had bit my son on the bottom. My son has stated in the past the "sometimes Josh whips me really hard." Is there any way I can file an appeal or something or even file charges against Josh for child abuse?
