This is a VERY hot topic and one that takes months of research. It depends entirely which state and even which county you are in.
Some do not enough, some do too much (such as taking away children just b/c their parents are poor), and some do a good job.

Also, it’ll depend on opinion. The goal of social service workers is for the parent to get help and receive their child back. Some, however, believe that a parent is given their child back too soon (for ex).
