Let me rephrase that, but without the inflammatory assumptions: Given that social workers are good people who do very hard (thankless and low-paid) work - has anyone checked what the reasons were for instituting this policy.
We're all in agreement that the agency needs to explain why this policy was put in place (which has since been prohibited), because it isn't normal to shackle kids and potentially someone needs to be held accountable. But maybe we can do that without impugning social workers as bigots - don't you think?
