Okay. Okay. Okay.

The logistics of the batfam. They confuse me. Let’s talk

Bruce has adopted many children. This is a fact. Let’s not dispute. He has signed the papers, those are his children.

Does no one check up on these children? 

They are vigilantes in a very dangerous city, and they are bound to be covered in very suspicious bruises. I mean we, as the audience, know that Bruce isn’t hurting the kids, but think of what all the evidence would logically point to. The suspicious bruises, the shaky stories explaining those bruises away, the general weirdness that comes with living a secret life. The conclusion that most would come to, and the conclusion that a CPS agent would come to would not be vigilantism, but would instead be abuse. We know this isn’t the case, but how would they?

Is Bruce just getting away with this because he’s rich and people therefore assume he’s doing good and cannot possibly be hurting these children? If so, that proves that the system he is trying desperately to fix is horribly broken, but why then does he play into it? Does he have to pay off the CPS agent assigned to him, or did he have to clue them into the vigilante secret (and even if he did, would that change things? Because fighting crime is very dangerous and not a thing children should be allowed to do)?

If Bruce is getting away with all these suspicious things shouldn’t that clue him into a major problem in the state of child services in Gotham? Does he let it go because it currently serves him well, or does he fix it but then lose the methods by which he fixed it?

I have so many questions. Please help.
