Classmate wa Isekai de Yuusha ni Natta kedo, Ore dake Gendai Nihon ni Okizari ni Narimashita - Vol. 1 Ch. 4.2

[Muriuki]

I know, i know the problem i have is that in those comics CPS is never even considered as an actual option even as the final nuclear one.

It's... Kind of sadly realistic?

People in the victim position tend to avoid rocking the boat. "Things can still go back to what they were before", "it will tear the family down", "my siblings and I will be separated", and a slew of other things.

It doesn't help that, in a lot of cases, child protective services are laughably bad at their job. I can take myself, living in France, as an exemple. My mother is the one who called CPS on herself, when she realized some things. Notably that her abuse was, in fact, abuse.
She got away with a slap on the wrist, and no action taken, at all. Her behavior never changed.

Beyond that, there's also the fact that in some cases, being under protective services' custody, especially if there's no family that can take you in, is its own hell in itself. Abuse between the children, abusive caretakers, so on and so forth... Sometimes they're an exaggerated minority, but shock stories work particularly well as a deterrent.

Finally, there's also the victim mentality of "nothing will change", and the phenomenon where you grow so used to abuse that it becomes your "normal" and "comfortable zone", is very much a thing.

Overall, even with effective CPS existence, it's just... really hard for victims to come forward. And more often than not, people who witness the abuse thend to just be silent bystanders.

Oh well that wasnt so bad(?) Thought it was matou or hanekawa level abuse

Time to develop curse magic so mom feels nauseous near booze and whoever her creep boyfriend is gets diarrhea whenever he thinks about sex.

Yeah, Clockwork Orange their ass!

 

[Reydrago]

Heeh... This rare, it's usually the father that's a drunkard

TBH, in the modern world mind control magic or magic that affect the mind in general is much better than other magics.

I swear to god the more mangas and Korean mangas i read the more i think this part of the world must have the shitiest Child Protection Service of the developed world, maybe where i live is overprotective but CPS has been called for less than that.

It's not that child protection service is shitty, it's that the victims often didn't report because being separated is a much bigger fear than the occasional beating. Due to higher standards, child protection services in these countries are often overfilled, understaffed and underfunded. The money is put to ensure that shelters abide by higher standards of care and living, thus the issue of quality over quantity. Which means those who do go into the system gets better care, but less children can go into the system. This would also mean that there are gaps in vacancies of each shelter, causing siblings to be broken up as one shelter cannot take all of them at the same time. Some asian countries or states also have a law that define how many children they can take in at any given time.

I expected something worse but what a shitty woman, she needs to be corrected

This project looks super interesting. Very different from others of the same genre, and different is always worth a look. The biggest problem here isn't the manga, it's the ¼ chapters! I read these bcuz they're up and ready to go, and, like I stated already, it looked interesting every time I skipped over it (and it is). However, I don't have the patience for ¼ chapters of any project. It'll take years before we even get to a 30th chapter, which isn't a lot of chapters or story! If you have patience for that, you'd have to have absolutely no life😅! I'll check-in in about 6 months to see where the story's at, and see if it's even being translated still. No-lifers, I ain't dissen yall. You guys are very necessary in ensuring a POSSIBILITY that this will actually be translated until then. So, good on ya and keep on keeping on👊🏼.

Eh? That I know of, CPS sucks no matter the country you live in. Since you're calling it CPS, I can only assume you're in America, but America's CPS is horrid in many cities/states. The country is just massive. What's happening in the Midwest, isn't happening in NY or LA. NYs CPS is an absolute atrocity that's completely underfunded, so you could end up with really horrible foster parents that take you in just for the money, cramming 10 kids in a two bedroom apartment, feeding you 10 cent ramen on the daily so they can pocket the rest. Whereas, in the Midwest, "generally", you'd get a proper facility or foster family because it's not overcrowded like it is in a massively overpopulated city like NY (I said generally bcuz, again, the country is massive. Salt Lake City, Ut is "midwest" but so is Detroit, Michigan. SLC is like how I explained the midwest facilities to be. Whereas, Detroit itself is poor af, so their CPS is like how I mentioned NYC's to be. Truth be told, no matter the country, I've never seen a properly functioning CPS program, ever, and I've lived all over the world. The Canadians? Nah, they call them kids "kennel kids", so how do you think those kids are really treated and funded😑? That's coming from a country that gives you amazing healthcare and other great benefits JUST for being a citizen😅. OPCs (other people's children), lbr, nobody likes to take care of what should've been take care of by their own blood relatives. That's the real truth about human society and our "humanity".

wouldn't even mind if this is the FL, she's already built like a housewife (despite her poor circumstances)

I have no idea about the child protection systems over there, but on the other hand, these kinds of series wouldn't work if it existed. Just like school delinquent fighting manga couldn't work if police existed in Japan. Well, we know police does exist, it's overly eager and everywhere in Japan, so it's just the fighting manga that removed it entirely for the sake of the plot. It's possible child protection exists as well, but this kind of manga needs to pretend it doesn't exist.

School delinquent fighting mangas however have their roots in the 70s and 80s, during which Japan actually did have a certain culture of delinquents duking it out at low-grade schools and police rarely got involved.
Nowadays it's true they make no sense, but most of them are inspired by older mangas (think GTO and its prequels) which actually are inspired by real life (though obviously still overblown and romanticized).

While that's undoubtedly true, but on the other hand, if we go back to 70's and 80's, what kind of child protection did any country have, compared to today? The difference is probably larger than in the police activity.
