So by that logic we shouldn't let the government decide what constitutes sexual abuse either?
Jesus...
That reaches a level of severity whereby even a highly defective, and even potentially harmful, solution is better than no solution at all. I can reverse this and say that by the logic of your position, every family should be assigned a government supervisor to whom the adults must periodically report and receive into the home for an inspection. See? It works both ways. In a situation where there's no non-harmful solution, I think the standard for government interference should be quite high, such as real physical harm or sexual abuse.
