kelz03103,

The question of "What were you charged with criminally" was not directed at you, but o the original poster.

Her post states "In the criminal case tied to the original removal I was not allowed to plea the 5th, I was told I would be thrown in jail."

Had there been any allegations of abuse or neglect by you in the case of your daughter? CPS can NOT legally just come in...

I wouldn't contact CPS. Just wait & see if they contact you again. I know it is anxiety provoking. Usually they can NOT close a case out until they have seen the children & talked to them----made sure they are safe/being fed/clothes, etc. & talked to the parents. If they contact you agai...

What were the allegations against you and/or your wife?

Why does she want your son to see a psychiatrist?

Baby drowns while parents drink beer-NO charges

The parents put thier 8 mo. old baby & 2 yr. old in the bathtub. The baby drowned while the parents were in the livingroom drinking beer. No criminal charges were filed. The story doesn't mention CPS, but I'd think they'd be involved. I'm sure the parents are grieving, but to me, it does seem ne...

If they can stay in your lives for 6 mos. after the children are returned home, then 6 mos. would be June, so July isn't that much longer. Perhaps the courts were booked up or the judge was going to be on vacation in June, etc. and that is why he scheduled the next hearing for July, instead of June....

It's heartbreaking to hear what happened to the baby. I'm surprised the baby was allowed to go home with the mother. Have you outright asked the mom if she'd be willing for you to raise the baby? She could give you temproary guardianship. If she really has no desire to parent, as you say, then she m...

No, it's not too much for your lawyer to ask that the case be closed. It's your right to ask that via your lawyer. The judge makes the decisions. Your lawyer should ask the new judge (your ex's lawyer) to excuse himself from hearing the case. But...I don't understand...if he is a judge NOW, then he ...

gooddad, My point was that at almost 16 years of age, CPS is not going to be iinvolved with the family for very long. My point had nothing to do with how long you are in the registry or future employment, etc. But, I will say, that I personally am not so convinced that being in the registry affects ...
