Social Worker Invades Home Without Warrant

I spend a lot of time taking care of children and the idea of a stranger entering the home in the middle of the day and partially strip searching the children I nanny based off an anonymous tip is an absolutely appalling thought...but it's something a family in Florida had to deal with in real life.
Recently, a "social worker showed up at the family's home when the father was at work -- and out of fear and intimidation, the mother let the social worker into the home to interview her children, even though the worker neither had a warrant nor would disclose why she was there."
The social worker "then partially stripped the children and searched them, but found nothing."
Where are the people standing up to protect and defend the constitutional rights of this mother? Where are the people who demand the rights of privacy that would allow Planned Parenthood to give abortions to young girls without parental notification? Why are none of the same liberals vocalizing their outrage at the right to privacy that this family was denied?
This social worker "broke the law by (1) entering the home and interviewing the children through intimidation; (2) not letting the family know the allegations at the initial visit; and (3) interviewing children whom the allegations did not concern."
