This puts his wife, who is already struggling with Post-Partum Depression, at home with no assistance. To make matters worse, Child Protective Services (you know, the people that like to take children away) start taking an interest in Joeâ€™s family causing even more stress and anxiety on the already taxed couple.&ldquo; Another example of how "family" matters seem to be handled in a radically different and more draconian way than regular disputes; "protecting the family" is a sacred cause and excuses anything, like "fighting the terrorists".
