两码事,医院是你自愿去的,接受医生的治疗有个consent的前提. 消防队是代表社会/社区来救火,火灾对整个社会有危害,这也有个默认的consent前提,所以消防队不需要在救火前征得同意.
儿童厅的做法是把执行建立在假设/主观判断上. 甚至(排除婴幼儿)不需征得当事儿童的同意直接带走
有一点蛮好奇的,如果最后证明儿童厅判断是错误的,当事人家长可以sue false imprisonment/false custody吗?
米国好像有个Section 1983 Civil Rights 可以起诉 Child Protective Services
"If your Child Protective Services social worker or caseworker claims to have immunity from prosecution, don’t believe it! There is no immunity for CPS under federal civil rights law."
