You guys are making me so glad I didn't become a social worker.  I'd be going

Michael,

Yep, I can believe it.  I work with Family and Childrens' Services (FCS)
almost every day.  They latch on to the most trivial events sometimes,
ignoring the absolute mayem right under their noses in other cases.  I think
you have to take a "common-sense deprogramming" course to become a
caseworker, or so it would seem.

When I had to go to court to get my daughter Susan and to be told that I
would have to have FCS come to check up on me to see how capable I am.
