The state of New Jersey has threatened to take a son away from his parents and place him up for adoption after an incident where the boy twirled a pencil like a gun in class.
13-year-old Ethan Chaplin was initially threatened with suspension when a classmate stated Ethan had ‘twirled his pencil like a gun’. After receiving media attention the school backed off.
However, after the incident seemed to cool off, the family received a letter from the “New Jersey’s Department of Child Protection and Permanency and Department of Children and Families”.
“I received a letter from them saying they had found an incident of abuse or neglect regarding Ethan because I refused to take him for psychological evaluation,” the father stated.
To appease the state and end the insanity the father took Ethan in to see a social worker, where blood and urine were drawn and no behavioral problem was found.
But the state was still not happy and demanded more testing – threatening this time to take the child and place him up for adoption.

This is total insanity! They are acting like Nazi Germany!
Folks this is the way these Social Services incompetents operate, in any state. First and foremost there are a lot of mentally challenged (disturbed) people employed by these agencies. If at first they fail in an attempt to have their way or prove their point, like deranged pigs they will keep rooting in mud until they or totally destroyed or win. It’s not about the children, it’s about covering their incompetent asses. Know this for a fact.
How exactly do you spin a pencil like a gun. More like a drumstick. Stupid teachers
the pencil had to be made of clay , wire, rubber or plastic. no way you can twist a wooden pencil into a shape of a gun. unless you break it in two. maybe that kif is lying.
When are so call intelligent people going to grow up and get a life of there own, instead of trying to run everyone Else’s life.
MORONS! They need to put them all in the NUT HOUSE! Get a grip and let kids be kids!
They are acting like the brain dead liberal evolutionists they were before Obama emboldened them by his stand on homosexuality, abortion, gun control, and the right of Christians to stand up for the beiiefs this country was founded upon.
here we go again-(common sense) NOT!!–
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS WRONG WITH ALL THESE WACKOS??????
