A parent or other person exercising custodial control or supervision of the child legitimately practicing the person's religious beliefs shall not be considered a negligent parent solely because of failure to provide specified medical treatment for a child for that reason alone. This exception shall not preclude a court from ordering necessary medical services for a child; or
Slide 8 - Fails to make sufficient progress toward identified goals as set forth in the court approved case plan to allow for the safe return of the child to the parent that results in the child remaining committed to the Cabinet and remaining in foster care for fifteen (15) of the most recent twenty-two (22) months;
Slide 9 - "Dependent child" means any child, other than an abused or neglected child, who is under improper care, custody, control, or guardianship that is not due to an intentional act of the parent, guardian, or person exercising custodial control or supervision of the child.“ This may be referred to as neglect due to dependency.

Slide 10 - REAL LIFE EXAMPLES
Slide 11 - Physical abuse Use of physical force that leads to danger or injury. The use of spanking is often debated but many concur that spanking with an object, leaving bruises or marks, and on parts of the body other than the buttock is inappropriate.
