Ontario Children's Aid and Misandry
Many men will attest to have seen a bias by CAS Protective Workers who are, it would appear, 95% female and some stridently feminist in their ideology. I can certainly speak to it, and can also say the local Algoma CAS and its sister organization Algoma Family Services, who deal with child mental health issues, have both shown me they care little about fathers. In one case a worker completely ignored my requests for help on the telephone and declared a conflict of interest so she could get out of providing service to me. I went over her head and finally got a supervisor to do her job.MJM

Mental Health “Expert” Claims That Child Sexual Abuse is Rarely Painful or Terrifying
Psychologist and associate at Harvard University, Susan A. Clancy, proposes in her new book that it is not the sexual abuse itself that causes trauma, but “the narrative that is later imposed on the abuse experience.” She writes in a letter to the Boston Globe, “For children, sexual abuse is rarely painful or terrifying at the time it occurs.”

Daughter in St. Paul custody dispute says she lied about abuse

The sexual and physical abuse allegations are central to the defense's case.
Adler, 35, testified Wednesday that she took the children away because their father and his wife were repeatedly abusing them. She had visited doctors, made police reports and talked to child protection, she said, all to no avail.
