For good reason, courts in Colorado take child abuse cases very seriously. There is nothing more important than protecting children, and adults who harm children should face consequences. However, child abuse is not as black-and-white as you might think. Under Colorado law, the definition of child abuse is quite expansive, and behaviors or parenting styles that some parents consider normal may be considered abusive by others.
Additionally, it is not uncommon for child abuse allegations to be made in bad faith. During a divorce or separation, one parent may make dishonest accusations against another in order to gain leverage in custody negotiations.
