I don't see that. Yes, Carol neither likes nor trusts Amy, but the vast majority of her neglect was by omission rather than commission. Amy got schooling, bed and board, and clothing. The Dallons never told her about Marquis, but to be fair, she never asked. Nor was she physically or verbally abused. I don't see where the 'felony level' aspect comes in.I've (repeatedly over the years) said that Carol's neglect of Amy was at a felony level of criminal.
When judging whether a neglect case is a misdemeanor or a felony, it's decided by the amount of injury (physical or mental) the child suffered as a result. You gave a nice list of most of Amy's major problems last post, so I'm sure you agree the damage Amy suffered is severe.
