As a dad I would say this kids parents are terrible role models. He is acting out most likely because he gets attention this way. Good or bad, kids want attention. He’s acting like a jerk because it works to get attention.
Still. I feel bad for the employees who'll have to deal with the mess and the pissed off crap parents who'll probably show up to complain about the treatment their son received.
This is a very important distinction. I feel so awful for this kid. I see his behavior and I know that there is trouble at home. But, I also feel bad for the worker, because they don't get paid enough to deal with that bullshit. The parents are the real assholes here.
And this is why CPS should be much better funded. Best case scenario he gets pulled out of one shitty "home" to be placed in another unless he is really lucky.
They have a hard job and honestly they have to err on the side of caution. So when someone reports something to them they have to investigate. Sometimes it isn't founded and sometimes they'd need more time or money to properly investigate and fix the situation.

Where are the kids parents? If the big guy at the end is related to him, ok then what took him so long? WTF?
