On 8/22/08 I became ill during the night and almost died. My 6 yr old son noticed the problem and went next door to get a neighbor and call 911. I was taken to the hospital where I lay on a ventilator, nearly comatose for two days. That night, CPS took my children, who were already scared and worried, and placed them with a foster home. They never tried to...

I have been harassed by Cps since dec 2012 my son is a very ill child he is trach and vent dependent and they tried to say we starve him but we have 24hr nursing care in the home so the nurses and the agency tried to stand up for us but they wouldn't listen to them when they finally stopped investigating the said we will be an open case for 6 months to a year as well as in home visits and the only thing they have on us is that we are young and they don't know if we can handle our son I have three other kids they weren't even concerned with and through some research I found out how much the state will pay for my son to go to foster care witch thankfully didn't happen thanks to the support we got from our nurses and nursing company all cps is, is a baby selling business with government ammunity

CPS is a total joke. They are nothing but a bunch of harrassment loving idiots. I was harrassed for 3 years. I mean literally harrassed. The worker would come threaten me when I was home alone. He would peek into my windows, he would tell other people in my home town about my case, he faked paper work and documents, he called me names, told me I should die, he would sniff my laundery, and other things of that nature.

Finally I asked a lawyer to lookg into it for me. They got the entire cps record and guess what they found. No case against me. The original worker had a different supervisor at the start of all this. The supervisor wouldnt sign off to open a investigation against me. So there was never a open case.

The worker kept coming to my house to bill for the work hours. After a new supervisor, I guess he never bothered to check the records, I requested another worker. Then I started digging to find information.

I was denied access to my records and denied meetings with the workers and supervisors. After learning they had no case and I was being harrassed I told them I would sue if they didnt leave me alone and that I would sue if they ever bothered me again. The next day I got a short two minute phone call saying they were sorry and wouldnt bother me in the future.

I was destroyed for what? Some billing hours and a little cash in some jerks pocket. They are terrible people (for the most part). They need stopped.

Child Protective Services Child abusers

As said best by late Senator Nancy Schaefer

"CPS ARE THE MOST EVIL AND CORRUPT BRANCH OF AMERICAN GOVERMENT"

here is a perfect example of it being true. For past 5 years these low life ### have been lying not only to the court but to my two little children and favoring their mentally ill mother who has been diagnosed by forensic psychologist Dr Lober wit multiple mental disorders including bi-polar disorder.

These lying parasites at CPS Elane Dickerson, Kevin Carpenter, Ed Heepe,

had lied to my children telling them they do not have to call their father every day, who the hell these under paid ### think they are but as soon as Melissa Leonard and her demanted Dolores Porco Leonard had paid Elane Dickerson to favor the mother as I have been told thats only the one caseworker they all are on the payroll being bribed by Dolores Porco Leonard whos worth millions she stole and hid from her own family. Who do these ### think they are telling two little children don't call your father every day, when there is a "SUPREME COURT ORDER" issued by Westchester Supreme jdg that intitles to at least two phone calls with both of my children, which their mentally ill mother Melissa Leonard has been violation for 2 years, phone records do not lie, but people like her who are doing everything to destroy the childrens relationship is a compulsive lier. Lying to every one she can that my children are afraid of me telling the court I use photo shop to make the children smile in our photos... now how can any normal person beleave that!

This lying ### Elane Dickerson and Kavin Carpenter who are clearlly showing favoritisim for the mentally ill mother refuse to return my calls regarding my visitations with my children which they have been doing delibaratly to keep me from seeing my children. The mother has used them to help her and now she took of out of state with out leting lawyers know telling my children to lie to me as to where they are as she did before. Taking our children to her own abuser molester bigget anti-samite Fransic Leonard aka (Archy Bunker) in De Pere Wisconsin who molester Melissa and Lohn Leonard when they were young as it has been told by other people and even by John J Leonard himself. This crooked lawyer John J Leonard who worked for Marc Dreier the corrupt lawyer who stole tens of millions from his clieants with help oj John J Leonard who was his right hand men, but he bailed to Cali when Dreier got caught taking god knows how many millions with him, that whole family Porco Leonard are crooks just google Porco they kill their own family for money, like one Chris Porco who chooped up his parents so he can gain family millions of dollars.

It's beyond me how can these parasites at cps can ignore Supreme Court orders and refuse to let me see my children and tell two little children lies about their father.

Where does a little child get the idea to say to his father and his grandperants "we don't have to see you jews anymore" and bringing this up to the anti-samite judge Tolbert who failed to enforse his orders leting the defendant get away with keeping my children from me and their grandperants for 5 years on every single Jewish Holiday!

Same goes for the law guardian John Belmonte this past April I was to see my children for Passover Holiday which the mother failed to let me take my children, leaving message for this ### law guardian was a waist he never returned my call even after sending him the Supreme Court Order which clearly states I was to see my children for our Jewish Holiday,

another bigget anti-samite the only thing he needs to wear to court is his white sheet and the cone hat from his clan. What normal law guardian will not let the little children be with their father despite of knowing the mother had used the children to lie about neglect. As well as this crooked state trooper Mario Velez who the mother screwed to help her has this crook brake in to my office at my home threated my son who was 7 yrs old to lie for his mother. This corrupt trooper Velez has been in the news for past 6+yrs himself for over stepping his power and badge and abusing beating threatnig students at Hen Hud school where he worked as a resorce officer... these two worthless scums left so much evidance that tropper Velez broke in to my office and even was seen making out with my childrens mother while they were in the house.

I guess the dead presidants from Dolores Porco Leonard showed them the way! Just like the judge who overruled him self and is the only judge in westchester who has the most complaints against him and who has been or is sued by at least 12 banks for default on payments... real nice a judge!

I have a complaint about Cheatham County CPS in Tenn. My grandchildren have been abused and neglected for yrs. At the present time my daughter (children's mom) is in jail for child Endangerment. She was found in a parked car on the side of the road passed out while huffing computer duster with my 4 yr. old grandson in the car with his head between his legs scared to death. The father of the children is a drug addict and homeless and not allowed around the children. Ok, Now CPS allows the great grandmother that is 77 yrs old with mental issues and handicapped to care for the children in a broken down trailer that is hoarded with trash, junk and unsafe to live(crack house).Children are all made to take a bath together at the ages of 10, 7 and 5 and not allowed to flush the toliet. Poor children had a dog that the great grandmother tied to the trailer porch and sent my little granddaughter to find him hanging dead. CPS will not return my calls and are useless. They have failed my grandchildren .My husband and I have been fighting for yrs. to get the children to come live with us in Ca. where they would have a nice home and a safe place to live. CPS would rather see them suffer.

Yes, I have a complaint. The thing is that I have called CPS on my neighbors due to drugs involved. They have children. The thing that I don't get is why are when they get tested for drugs they still use a urine test. I believe there are many ways to cheat on a urine test. And CPS just don't get the theory, They should use a more accurable solution such as a hair strand test, this u can't fail because its in the follicles no matter if you try to wash it out etc. It actually proves when this individual last used. I strongly recommend this. And to see that this person pass a urine test and been using drugs, CPS need to step it up a notch. Do your job! Find another solution and stop using the urine test! These people who abuse drugs are getting away with it because they passed a urine test! Especially when they have children who see their parents gettin high! Come on let's be serious here. Just because they passed a drug test doesn't mean that you can move on to the next. Do a follow up! And there's a reason why people report parents abusing drugs to CPS especially when children are involve. Protect the children! Social Workers nowadays are slacking on their part and the system!

Child Protective Services Wrongfully accused

I am wrighting to summit a complaint about MONTCALM county Child Protective Services!
The reason That I am writing this is because, On Febuary 10th 2011 My family was ripped apart Literially. At 3:20 that thursday afternoon my daughter age 12 months was making rushed to the hopsital at Graciot Memorial Hospital in Alma Mi, She was placed on life support and was aero medded to U of M, Where she passed away Febuary 11th at 11:23pm, She had severe brain swelling and her electro lytes were extremely low along with her glucose and sodium and everything else. They told us they didnt know why her brain was swelling just that It was life threatening. They contiuned to do there test with her to find out why this was happening, however they couldnt conclued anything. While we were at U of M trying to be at the bedside of our 1 year old daughter we began to be interagted by state troopers and CPS workers, We were in a room for long periods of times and only had minutes with our daughter before they took us in for another interagation. This contiuned until my beautiful daughter passed away. At the hopital CPS came and took from us our 2 year old son and 4 year old daughter said we were not a safe enviorment for them do the the unknown case of our 1 years injuries. We had to appear in court 11 hours after our daughter passed away, they wanted to terminate our parental rights, the judge however said there wasnt enough evidence that he wasnt going to do that we then got granted 2 hour visits a week and our children are in foster care. We have been dealing with CPS for over a month now and our children are still in foster care my parents are wanting the kids they have been approved but pending to be foster parents prior to this happening and The CPS worker has not returned my mothers phone calls My mother calls at least 2 times a week and is still waiting for a home inspection. They came and had the state police officers come to get the childrens belongings and was told that no officer was allowed in our home with out a warrant for all the harrasment we have indured they didnt listen and did a ILLEGAL search of our home. We have been Harrased, accused of false acusations and have had all our RIGHTs as a AMerican citizen taken away. We have NEVER been introuble with the cps before or have never even been under invesgation. We have structure for our children we love our children, Yes our 1 year old had a bruised chin however she just started walking 5 days before she passed away and fell and bumped her chin on a end table. However I was a stay at home mother for 2 years with my children and I also baby sat 3 other children at the time. We are a very loving family that is very family orianted we do family activities and do not have any neglect nor abuse in our home. We are waiting on the autopsy to tell us how and why our daughter died. As for no body as any Idea. They couldnt say what it was they were at a lose. Our Lawyer told us that this is going to be a long battle due to the fact CPS instantly made there minds up about us, We are INNOCENT of there acusations and feel this is unhuman what we are going through. Our children have NEVER been away from us for more that a few days at most and now they are away from us for over a month and they dont have there baby sister with them, When we see our children they cry and want to come home and want to know where sister is at. They are making us feel like were criminals when we are law abiding citizens, We just want them to go to my parents house where there with family rather then a foster home. We fight every day to protect our children but it seems all our years of being there parents and protecting them Child Protective services has RUINED it all. If someone can please please help my family to at least get our children out of foster care please do so... We are begging you. WE are reaching out for anyone at this point, We not only lost our baby but we lost our other 2 children the same day. We dont know what to do from here our trials keep getting ajurned and we are getting no where. We are at a stand still. So please help me if you know how to get the case transferred t o a different county or anything please please... Thank you.

All social workers to me sold there souls. They tell you to be honest with them but there not honest with you. They get away with murder. I seen them in action. I been threw what you all are going threw. There jobs are not to help you. It's to make you seem like the most horrible parent ever. Even if you are a good parent. Cause that's what they get paid too do. If they try to help the parents they will lose there job.

CPS is very corrupt, I use to live in Montcalm County Michigan. I now live in a different area. Montcalm has harrassed my family for 24 yrs. Now my children are afraid of everything. Especially my 9 yr old daughter. CPS is only in it for the money not the family. I fight them everyday. Good luck with everything. And God Bless your family

I had my children removed for alleged drug abuse and dropped clean and proved i was clean but because it was my father whos wife was sterile filing the complaints the cps worker felt it was a legit claim and got the court to order my father and mother get my kids and once they had them they cut off all visitaion and told my children they were their parents now that I didn't want them. I pled with cps to make them let me see them and they told me it was a foc matter. FOC never enforced visits and when we went to court again my rights were terminated for no contact. My fatrher had me arrested twice for trespassing for showing up and asking to see her. He also made me pay 600.00 to visit for 1 hour on christma eve and after 15 minutes told me I had to go because I was crying and it was traumatizing my 4 year old who had only ever been away from me visiting my father on over night stays with constant telephone contact. The system is broke and noone is trying to fix it hon. Good luck in your battle. Once you prove that it was not abuse or neglect I would contact a lawyer and sue the hell out of the system for the pain and suffering they have caused your family.
I know a family of drug users who lost their kids for not protecting them from a moleser that had abused their son... their kids were taken for 6 months and returned because they "turned over a new leaf. and attended church." They have the kids around the same man out on bond for molesting their child and stopped going to church 2 weeks after the kids were returned.
If your kids are white with blonde hair and blue eyes they are the ones the system goes after the most because they are the most "adoptable' meaning sellable.

First the CPS investigate against my daughter she dislocate my granddaughter when she was two.Then under her father care she under her father care broke her leg.It was spiral tibal break on her left leg.Instead all the father accused us being bad parenting and claiming sexual abuse.When they didn't take the girls to see the doctors not even police report. CPS believe them more. March 28, 2011I lost managing conservator of my grandkids and also restraining order. When I talk to mydaughter she kept telling .I have other grandkids.I know i do.but i had special bond with these girls.And to me it sound like she is jealous.

Child Protective Services No Communication

We have had nothing but bad experiences with CPS. Our niece was being severely emotionally, physically, and sexually abused by her father, who is a meth addict. We tried calling cps over and over again, but since she was a teenager they told us that unless there were very obvious burns/bruises on her, that they couldn't do anything. Finally we called the police who were prompt and efficient. They assigned someone to the case, the officer went and investigated, and she was pulled out of the home and put back in the care of CPS... which is when it started going downhill again. We and her other aunt/uncle who live nearby have jumped through every hoop they have asked us for (background checks, house inspections, etc) and have showed up for every court date to support her, even though the parent's protest and we aren't allowed in. The parents confessed to much of the child abuse and are not cooperating (not going to therapy, not paying child support or court fees, nor are they apologetic or trying to change), but it is still court ordered that she have to go to a supervised visit with them once a week and speak to her father, who molested her and her mother, who let it happen. However, because we were the ones that called CPS/police and reported the abuse, we are the ones being punished and we are not able to see her because we are on her side and might try to "influence" her. We have accepted this and have followed this rule, ridiculous as it may be. Also, three months ago the judge approved her for a court appointed advocate to speak for her in court, but her social worker (who never answers his phone and never returns calls- EVER) hasn't done the paperwork to get her one. Meanwhile, this girl is breaking down under the stress- has no idea what is going to happen to her, where she is going to live, doesn't feel safe and doesn't have her LOVING relatives around to give her support and guidance.
But six months have gone by, and there are two loving homes that she could be in that are with her FAMILY and have been APPROVED, but instead she is in a foster home with 5 other foster kids who are all under the age of 8. Complaints about these foster parents have gone completely unheard by anyone. They leave her alone all the time, they make her babysit the other foster kids, they put her in the middle of their domestic disputes and fight in front of her, they let her date guys though she is way too young, and NOW THE FOSTER DAD STARTED SEXUALLY ABUSING HER! This wouldn't have happened if she was with her family, where she should be. Of course, to get something actually done, we called the police, who arrived promptly and took the foster dad to jail. Where was CPS? Social worker has changed his number w/o informing the foster child he is supposed to be looking out for. His supervisor doesn't seem to care and just makes excuses for the social worker. Through this whole process no one will tell us whats going to happen, no one will tell us what is going on, or what to do to help. No one will call you back, no one will give you a straight answer.
F**** you CPS. It seems like either you take children away from good parents for the tiniest reasons, or you ignore huge and obvious signs of abuse for years and then allow the child to keep hurting once they are out of the home, and give terrible selfish "parents" the chance to get their child back, leaving the kids terrified. Way to go.

My name is Marlene and I called CPS manassas va 2008 and our live will never be the same the reason i called them has till this day never been addressed. I got my grandchildren back by default, meaning DSS was never planning to give them back, but i was doing the so called plan and family counseling came in and saw all the things that were happening to my two grandchildren and they were senthome to me within a week, got custody back Feb 22 2010..
Now i am looking to sue the state of prince william county DSS for all the unjust, criminal, civil right violations, human rights, childrens rights bill of rights defamation, slander, libel, false accusations, lying on aff idavit, it goes on and on. The CPS worker that started the whole mess was fired because she was the caseworker for Lexie Glover, the 13 year old girl that was murdered by her fostercare adoption mother. read up on that case manassas va 2009. very sad.

I feel for for anyone who has or has to call CPS for anything . I have become an activist against CPS and DSS and as soon as I can find a lawyer that will help my family right the wrongs, I will be fighting with all of you...

I agree with the advice of MOMFIGHTINGDFS above, CASA is just another arm of CPS, and just as crooked. I agree that you need a lawyer to act on your niece's behalf, but do not put blind faith in lawyers. Most of them are gutless when it comes to really standing up against CPS corruption. Many of them will advise you to keep a low profile while your case is in the courts, ie. not to publicise it in the media, the internet etc, but this is BAD advice. Public exposure is the ONLY thing that CPS fears, and bad press is the only thing that might have a chance of getting them to stop their corrupt ways.

HIS DAD ABANDONED HIM RATHER THEN GIVING ME CUSTODY
AND NOW FOSTER CARE IS PLAYING POWER GAMES WITH ME AND BLACKMAILING ME INTO DOING WHAT THEY WANT SUCH AS TAKING THE PSYCH AGAIN ETC

ALL MALICIOUS BEHAVIOR AGAINST THE PUBLIC'S BEST INTEREST

I am sorry to hear about your bad experinences with CPS. Unfortunately, it does not surprise me. I'm afraid the moral of the story is NEVER call CPS, they always seem to support the WRONG side in a custody dispute. Their goal is to make as much money off of children as possible, not to actually do what is best for the children. I pray for you and your niece, and hope she is soon reunited with those who love her, she certainly does not need to be in the foster care system. I, myself have also had nothing but bad experiences with CPS, as you can see on my web site at www.kitandnancy.com

My two day old newborn baby girl was unlawfully taken from me after making a false report about me testing positive for some kind of a sleeping drug. They would not tell me what the drug was and my baby's urine, blood, and first bowel movement tested negative for any and all kinds of drugs. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions on what I should do? Please help me.

Child Protective Services Terrible company

I have had very tough issues with my teenage daughter who was sneaking out of the house at night (like many children seem to do nowadays), hanging with thugs and just having some very, very serious personality issues. She was a great kid, respectful and very charming by day and by night was a totally different child. She had mixed up with the wrong crowd in her high school and basically got sex-addicted, meanwhile I thought that being the attentive mother that I was I would notice something like this.

I tried different avenues to help her including homeschooling, private schooling, putting her in plays and clubs and different activities that were basically running me down financially and emotionally and physically. I did my best to steer her right and it didn't work. I would normally never turn to family but I turned in desperate effort to my Mom who took her one summer when she was totally out of nighttime control and things seemed to get better and we felt that she was done with her ways.

My daughter was 15 when she returned and I warned her that what she was doing could not happen again and that she would then have to deal with different reprocussions. She assured me that her ways were over and that it would never happen again. I knew how manipulative she was and how she could lie without blinking an eye and yet I tried to learn to trust her and believe in her.

I also put her in private Christian School that she didn NOT want to go to at all. To make a long story real short, I later found out through the school that she was still meeting up with these thugs and actually daring to attempt meetings on school grounds and it was a very SMALL school but of course that didn't work. At that point I immediately made arrangements and wound up voluntarily putting her into a therapeutic home for teenagers. She was really upset and threw a fit when I dropped her off and cried and pleaded but I told her this was needed.

Needless to say that I became a victim myself when my daughter started talking badly about my home. CPS came knocking and I was really upset but in a way knowing my daughter retaliation should have been expected I just didn't think that while I was not a perfect Mom, I was a good one and had nothing to worry about. Needless to say CPS of course has to investigate all claims and I don't blame them for doing their job but it bothers me because I feel violated and invaded, they know I feel this way especially being a person who likes a low-profile and keeps to herself having to deal constantly with CPS and the Sheriff's Department is not fun.

Now, I have tried the best I can to cooperate, They want to speak to people and not everyone wants to speak with them, including my family but I am trying to deal with it and bite my tongue. The Sheriff's Dept or CPS of course found nothing because there was nothing happening of the sort to begin with ..no details listed I know... but I realized how things work when they asked for references. I contacted two friends that I thought could provide a good reference and could get a lot more but after the first one called I was so upset and embarrassed.

While they tell you that they protect your privacy, the questions that were asked I later found out were explicit and inclusive of allegations which though they say they are standard questions, I found them a bit deep and was just embarrassed that they could ask a friend that. I am not sure if my second reference called but its sad because though I did nothing wrong, I feel like I have to hang my head in shame.

Ok, so they have to do it you say. I guess they have to but what gets me is now they are telling me - okay we are ready to close your case but we need to speak to her biological father who is a total jerk and deadbeat dad who likes to just cause problems and hasn't seen her more than three or four times in the last 10 years. He also has not been supportive, is an alcoholic and a prolific liar. He makes promises that he will never keep and tries to be a hero to her when he DOES see her and then will totally turn around and badmouth her behind her back and he does vice versa with her. it's sad but this is a guy who has bot been in her life like a real dad, who will not pay child support and I have not persued it because she is mentally beter with him OUT of her life.

He is not on her birth certificate and I asked them not to call him because the peace I finally have will be ruined. In December he called me 8 times in a row after I told him not to call back after being verbally abusive over me not letting him speak to her while he was drunk and kept calling and calling even after I threatened him with the Sheriff for harassment. CPS says they have to establish the case and their relationship and I feel violated and say NO, this is my daughter and I know what's best for her and it's not that I am worried about him giving info because he knows nothing of my life but I want the peace that I have today and feel that my daughter who is 16 does not need this deadbeat in her life. i am seeking a court intervention based on these facts.

CPS Supvsr tells me he will give me a week before seeking her 'father' out and that if I refuse to let them talk to them I am onstructing investigation. I let these people in my home over and over and over and over. I will not let them force me to do this and feel my constitutional right have been violated. Also they want every detail on how I plan to deal with my daughter and what would I say if...and I am like - you know what, this is my daughter not yours and I don't feel like i have to rehearse what I would say to my daughter with strangers. I am tired and broke so hard to get an attorney for this.

I want to go straight to the judge, DA or whatever but since its a Sunday, I am really just upset I can't do it this very second...maybe you fell I am wrong but am I? I sought help for my daughter and because I am dealing with statewide mandated things does not mean I deserved to be turned inside out. I want peace for me and my daughter and I think her 'father' would use this opportunity to try to get to her head and convince her I am a loser and he is the hero..

I mean this is a guy who asked if I could send her ALONE by Amtrak to visit him a few states away at the age of 9, who told her she could live with him if she wanted if she got a job and contributed to the household and she could go to the beach and hang out with her friends whenever she wanted if he did but he told me that he would never want her to live there because his girlfriend is is schitzophenic (medically) and has flipped out already in front of my daughter a few times would never allow it.

On visitations years ago he brought her to bars and betting halls. He told her on a visitation that she could spend five bucks only on his trip on something she wanted because he was broke but then my daughter came back crying because his girlfriend bought bags of items and gifts with his credit card for her friends and family.

On his last visit four years ago approx he told me aftewards she was flirting with guys and kept changing his radio station to rap but not to tell her though he was upset but I had to talk about the flirting thing which later became part of her issue at home and later he said he never said when speaking to her and he then begged forgiveness and said, look let's forget this happened and be friends again okay and it won't happen again. He is PART of the problem and that is why I told him to stay away until she is better or turns 18. I refuse to just let him back a door that has been closed for some time now and mess up her head. Any suggestions?

Jules you must not be a parent. I get everything that she is saying because as a parent you want to protect your child as best as possible. Samuel you have to realize that you have done everything possible! You have spent tons of time, money, and have been placed in a bad place. Once a girl starts down that path it is really hard to stop them. You don't deserve it she is ungreatful for the things that you have done for her. You were there when he wasn't and that's what you have to remember. It is hard to understand why children do the things that they do but it is only because you do to much for her. She is not replacing a father cause you were both, she wants to be grown and do what she wants to do. Lets be for real, she is telling her social worker that you are a bad mom and mixing up the story. She is bad mouthing you and no matter what she feels you were there and she is bad mouthing you! I am a mother and I know how you feel it's no need even putting any more time into it... Let her go with her father and see how things really are she will be running to live back with you once she misses her first meal. This is her life and if she want to mess it up that is on her you have done everything that you could to make sure that she was happy now it's time to make yourself happy. Let her father deal with her it's his turn. As for him you tell him never to call you, record what is being said, and give it to the police so that you can get a restraining order. Then the next time that his [censor] calls you can get him arrested for violating it. Kids need tough love you need to follow through with everything that you say. It they think that you are bluffing they will continue to do it. She is calling you bluff, show them your poker face.

First of all... CPS has to contact the fathers by State Law, regardless if they are in the child's life or not.. second of all.. yes we need to know everything you are going to do with your daughter detail by detail.. because your way is not working and we need to set a plan..hence based on state law, yet again! Safety plan always... cps is trying to do their job, we dont make up the rules, but if we want to keep a job, we follow them. Trust me it would be soooooo much easier to just close the case without contacting all of these people..but we CANNOT do it ... all of things they ask are not about personal preference...its all about our protocol that we HAVE to follow!

Girl, you bad mouth her dad to her over and over. She must hate you with a passion. You need to let her live with her dad for a little while. She is having a father complex and trying to replace her dad with guys she is meeting. She is trying to replace her dad with "thugs" and "the wrong crowd". She needs a father figure in her life. You and her dad gave her life. You decided her dad is a bad person, but you need to let her decide that because she had decided that about you. Your loosing the fight with your daughter and she is just going to hate you. Let her live with her dad because as I see it he can't do anyworse than your doing. CPS really does suck and regardless they will not help you, only make things worse.

Child Protective Services Terrible child treatment

I recently read a report by joseph Paul ottis about the things he suffered with CPS, and saw that more children are murdered in CPS and foster families care than any other cause of child death in this nation... And I feel the need to concur... I was raised in a Satanic cult in Idaho and Utah, and the group engaged in sacrifice and a type of medical experimentation called neuromodulation. I grew up for years watching the children who ended up victims of both, being payed for or kidnapped out of CPS placement facilities.

So... I am also sick of the glorification they receive... thank you to any one brave enough to stand up and tell the truth about them!

I was just visited by cps about a week ago. Not knowing better i let them in. They made me sign a paper saying i would u/a within 11 hours of the visit. They would not tell me if the report was for child abuse or substance abuse in the home.By the time they left i thought for sure they were gonna leave dragging my kids out with them.. I didn't go to the u/a or sent my kids back to school! Can i run away from this? If i ignore them long enough?

The Best Advice I can give anyone is NOT TO GET CPS INVOLVED. THEY ARE THE WORST ORGANIZATION THAT HAS EVER BEEN PUT TOGETHER. STAY AWAY FROM THEM. THEY WILL FALSELY ACCUSE YOU. BEWARE OF THEM. I"VE BEEN FALSELY ACCUSED AND I"M JUST A GRANDPARENT TRYING TO HELP BUT THEY TURNED THINGS AROUND AND FALSELY ACCUSED ME.. You will be WORSE OFF if you involve them.
