Best Answer

Mandatory reporting refers to a legal requirement, along with some form of punishment for not reporting a case of abuse. Mandatory reporting is not limited to cases of abuse, but typically involves either the presence of harm or risk of harm to others or the person in question (ie, self-harm and suicide). These laws vary by location.

Does the father still get parenting time when he has a protective order on him?

Yes, unlike mothers, a man who has been "accused" of abuse, even in those few cases that are true, abuse the child in just 8% of the cases, as compared to 55% for mothers. Restraining orders are easy to get and costly to defend, as David Letterman learned. see link


What are the proper way of news reporting?

It actually depends on whether you are reporting for radio, TV, or print. In all cases, you want to seek out the facts and report them fairly and understandably. You don't want to let your own personal beliefs or biases affect how you report. But your style will vary, depending on which mass medium you use. If you are reporting for radio, you want to have a conversational yet authoritative style, explain things clearly, and use a good vocabulary with lots of descriptive words (people will be listening, and since there are no pictures, they will be relying on you to tell them the information they need). If you are reporting for TV, you also want to be conversational yet authoritative, but you may not need as many words, since you will have pictures to go along with your reporting. You will also need to match your facts to the images the viewers will be seeing. And if you are reporting for print, you will want to write in an interesting manner, telling the story in a way that makes the person eager to read it and find out more about the subject.

In New Zealand can grandparents demand visitation or custody when there is no abuse or parental problems?

No. There are no such direct legal rights that benefit grandparents. The sole authority of a parent over their own child should always be paramount in the law. No other person can be allowed to break that right without just cause. Grandparents can report cases of abuse or neglect. They can attend the family group conference when allegations of abuse or neglect are being evaluated. They can petition for an order of guardianship if the case progresses to family court. They have no right to demand visitation rights or custody when there is no abuse or other problem present. See related link.
