Is there any one who cares enough to save this child?

What do you do to protect a child when everyone knows and
believe he is being harmed, not as much physically as
emotionally and mentally; although the physical harm is
escalating? This child is 11 years of age, because there
are no bruises on the child children services will not get
involved; actually we don’t know whether or not there are
bruises, CSD cannot even check. This child has been living
with his adoptive family since he was five. They adopted
him when he was six. This child has been moved to five
different schools to date, in the same small town, the
parents were divorced about three years after the
adoption, due to the fact the mother had an affair with
her co-worker and then proceeded to move in with this man
with the adoptive child when he was eight. This child is
treated with extreme cruelty, the adopted father has
stated this fact and the two parents continuously fought
about how cruel the mother was to this adoptive child,
however he did nothing to stop it and when they divorced
he just bailed and abandoned the boys, for the most part.
So far there have been reports of this abuse by his sister
his adoptive father and his biological mother. Still
Children service say there is nothing they can do.
This child sleeps and hides out in a 2x4 ft closet because
after having every bit of his security taken away from him
it is the only place he feels safe. The last resort for
him was when they took his kitty, that he had sleep with
for over a year, away from him. The mother has ridiculed
the boy for going into his closet and grounds him for this
now. This child is ridiculed on a daily basis and grounded
at least 80% of the time. This child has been told to go
to the school counselor, which he did, the counselor felt
that his “professional opinion” was that this child is not
in any “emanate harm”. So nothing was done.
Everyone admits this child is being treated so wrong but
every one says there is nothing that can be done unless
there are bruises. There are so many more bruises in this
child that do not show.
This child has stated many times he is scared of this
mother and he thinks he will loose his mind if he has to
stay there. Because this child is not saying the right
words, and he is petrified of not only his adopted mother
there is a 14 year old biological child that is even
crueler to him if that is at all possible. His normal
comments to this boy are “just your presents makes my skin
crawl”. There are four things I believe will happen very
soon, the mother is increasingly loosing her cool and
truly harming him in complete anger, she us now hitting
him in the face. This boy is going to loose complete
control, only with the mother and the 14 year old son. Or
he his going to commit suicide, or fall into complete
despair because he is unable to say the right words to get
the right help because he is scared.
This is happening small town of 10,000 people in Central
Oregon
Is there any one who cares enough to save this child?
