The custody action was dissolved
Prior narrative influences decision & emergency custody was taken w/o reasonable efforts
CPS escalates despite lack of immediate danger. 
Filing exaggerated reports to police, DSS, courts, framing Jane as mentally unstable when she resists control.
A documented pattern spanning nearly 20 years.
Virginia law specifically defines a lack of resources as a service need and a willful failure to provide food as neglect
Reasonable Efforts Standard: There was food in the home, no medical evidence of malnutrition, no consistent reports of hunger, no failure-to-thrive diagnosis, no pattern of children being denied food
Child Welfare Disclosure Laws: Right to access records used in decisions
Constitutional Due Process: Right to access evidence affecting liberty and family integrity
Counsel must provide timely notice of hearings, filings and developments to ensure meaningful participation.
You have the right to hear the evidence against you and challenge unsupported claims.
The state must prove abuse or neglect is more likely than not (51%+). If evidence is equal, the state loses.
You can review agency records before hearings and challenge inaccuracies. Denovo appeals reset the case completely; prior conclusions do not control the outcome.

Mandatory Reporting: Under Va. Code § 63.2-1509, a therapist who suspects child abuse or neglect—including a parent's refusal to provide necessary medical care—must report it to Child Protective Services (CPS) within 24 hours.
Overruling Parents: When a situation is life-threatening (like severe anorexia with suicidal ideation), a therapist's duty extends beyond giving advice. They may be expected to report the medical neglect to CPS to force an intervention, such as an Emergency Custody Order (ECO) or a Temporary Detention Order (TDO).

The Mother: By ignoring six warnings for psychiatric care for a life-threatening condition, the mother may have committed civil or criminal medical neglect under Virginia law.
