I find nothing in Ziven’s health history, either individually or in totality to suggest that he was in any physical danger. I find no evidence relating to the parental care which would suggest that they were not totally and properly attentive to his physical needs. It was only after the reporting to the Children’s Aid Society and after Ziven was removed from the plaintiff’s daycare that the plaintiff wrote letters to the defendants expressing concern. The plaintiff vigorously raises the issue that Ziven lost one percentile in weight. The plaintiff had no notion that he lost weight until told by the defendants, who took him to the doctor who advised of same and the defendants openly shared this information with the plaintiff. It is common knowledge that doctors have a legal and professional duty to report neglect. This was not done in this case. The plaintiff, Ms. Larabie, had all contact information of the doctor but took no steps in attempting to contact the doctor herself or speak to the defendants at any time.
He lost ONE percentile? If he learned to walk during this time, wouldn't that be reasonable? It's not like he when from being in the 100th to being in the 50th. He dropped ONE percentile in 4 months.
