Obviously authorities are restricted by the law, one would question the mother's background relative her ability to safely treat her daughter with injections, where she is obtaining the botox, the involvement of a physician in the treatment...these would seem to be some of the key legal questions. Again, the legal statutes regarding child abuse will be key...to me there is no question that this is child abuse, but I cannot speak to the legal issues. The mother stated that mothers of other contestants are doing the same thing...this should be investigated and if true, action should not be limited to this one case.
