There is a solution to the problems generated by Dr. Barbara Knox and others like her in the child protection arena. The law must stop enabling bad actors to be shielded from the consequences of their behaviors. The knowledge that both civil and criminal penalties can and will be brought against, doctors and social workers who use their positions to wreak havoc on the lives of innocent parties will result in far fewer false accusations and the resulting trauma visited on innocent children by officials who should be doing the opposite.
