Guess I should have been far more clear... IF there's to be a form with questions, THEN it should have NO MORE THAN a vague question about child safety, rather than specifics. It shouldn't be backed up with someone making sure every cabinet locks, every gun is unloaded and put out of easy access, etc. etc. etc..
Honestly, I have no idea why a form is necessary. It's a lazy way out of interviewing and follow-up visits. Even then, the visits are dodgy. It's sad, but workers are far more likely to be outraged by a tasteful and artistic nude painting, or a gun in a place a child would need to sprout wings to get to (and also lack all common sense)... than they would be about overprocessed garbage food and the overuse of a television. *sighs* I always wondered why the spot checks weren't done before, but maybe they are. It seems like once a kid is placed with a family, it should take something pretty horrifying for an agency to take them back (such as really obvious abuse, kids wading through trash and living in their own filth, etc.). The Government, though, is really *REALLY* bad at making judgment calls like that

It's going to really suck trying to adopt when I get around to it. I'm unfit on 1,000 different levels heh
