neglect hearing

Read a random definition: tradition

A quick definition of neglect hearing:

A neglect hearing is when a judge listens to evidence about a child who has not been taken care of properly by their parent or caregiver. The judge decides if the parent or caregiver did something wrong and if the child should be taken away from them. This is to make sure the child is safe and taken care of.

A more thorough explanation:

A neglect hearing is a type of judicial hearing that deals with situations where a child has not been properly cared for by a parent or legal guardian. The purpose of the hearing is to determine if the parent or guardian is civilly responsible for the neglect and if the child should be placed in foster care or if parental rights should be terminated.

For example, if a child is found to be malnourished or living in unsanitary conditions, a neglect hearing may be held to determine if the parent or guardian is responsible for the neglect and if the child should be removed from their care.

Another example is if a child is left alone for extended periods of time or is not receiving proper medical care, a neglect hearing may be held to determine if the parent or guardian is responsible for the neglect and if the child should be placed in foster care.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
