Revise definition of "psychological abuse or neglect" in child abuse and neglect proceedings

LC 484 aimed to revise the legal definition of "psychological abuse or neglect" within child abuse and neglect proceedings. As a procedural bill, it would have directly affected child welfare courts, social services agencies, and legal proceedings involving child safety cases. The bill was introduced but died in committee process on May 22, 2025, without becoming law. No specific definition changes were enacted, as the bill did not advance beyond the drafting stage.
