Pros
If you are interested in working in social services (under DCF), this is an entry level position to gain experience and exposture. I enjoy helping "at risk children" who have been neglected and or abused. Working as a DCP can be very difficult emotionally and physically.
Cons
Some cons are lack of professionalism, getting physically hurt by the children and possibly having DCF called on you for ANY reason. DCF will do an investigation to find out the facts if you happened to get called on by a child or another staff member. DCF respects the rights of children.
