Father’s Extreme Yosemite Climb with 7-Year-Old Sparks Controversy and CPS Investigation
“Breaking the record [previously held by his 9-year-old brother] is really cool, and doing an impossible thing with my family means more with my dad up there,” he said.
The ascent took five days to complete.
CPS ultimately declined to pursue action against Joey’s parents.
Netizens continued to criticize the father, urging him to stop taking his young son on dangerous climbs
“I don’t care if the child feels comfortable because he doesn’t fully understand the danger and risks. Dad should be jailed,” one X user wrote.
“People that climb rocks d** at an extraordinary rate,” another commented.
“Everyone praises parents like this until something bad happens,” remarked a third.
Several others accused Joe of involving his children in the dangerous activity to gain fame.
“He just wants to go viral,” one person claimed, while another demanded that the media verify whether “CPS was actually called” or whether the father had fed them a “made-up story.”
“I would question them like I am now, but I wouldn’t call CPS,” a separate user said
