Oh I wasn't being harsh, I was just stating fact.

And this has not only come from what I have observed but what I've seen within myself as well.

Actually the identity thing is a genuine law. Children who are in the custody of DoCS or are living at home but subject to any kind or order are legally protected from being identified in any way, shape or form. Not only are they physically protected from the relative who would abuse them, but their identity is also protected.
