dc.description.abstractUnder Michigan law, a court can obtain temporary custody or jurisdiction over a child once one parent is found to have neglected the child, even if the other parent did nothing wrong. The practice of assuming jurisdiction over a child solely on the basis of the wrongdoing of one parent raises serious constitutional concerns. One of the flaws in the child welfare system is the system’s reluctance to allow children in its grasp to return to the care of parents, particularly those who did nothing wrong. (Author Text)en_US
