good dad, a question......does the immenent risk rule still apply if you have agreed to a safety plan? if you have agreed to a safety plan, and have not followed through can they remove the child without a court order because you concented to the safety plan?

i know when cps offered us a settlement prior to our hearing...our attorney was VERY clear in explaining to us that if we agreed to it, we WOULD be giving up our rights to a trail. im not sure about the whole appeal thing. did you attorney not explain what you would be giving up if you signed?

it must be horrible when it is your own family that does this to you. those type of relatives your probably better off not having them in you lives. in regards to the not cooking. I dont cook either, my husband does all the cooking. can I cook-yes. I just hate it. when my husband and I separated for...

dependency court takes too long.......you can get resolution faster in traffic court. sad really. thats what took our case as long as it did. you have to wait 5-6 weeks between court hearings.

i do think that a light swat is o.k. I dont believe that any child should be hit with any sort of object though, i do think that is abuse.

i had my first child at 23, second at 28, third at 29. im thirty now, and i STILL get alot of support from both my mother and my mother in law. there help is invaluable to me-and i thank god for it.

glad to hear that things are working out with your niece. they may be young, but hey we all start out that way and learn as we go. i have seen a 16 year old mother her child better that an adult, age dosent mean anything. give them all the support you can, they will be fine.

our situation was our fault though. my husband called the police that night. we brought them in. if it hadnt been for that call they never would have came into our lives. my one year old daughter can now crawl up onto the couch. but she isnt really stable yet, if you know what I mean. im so afraid o...

im sorry we got off on the wrong foot. im sure you probably go through every day telling yourself why did I do it????? you certainly dont need me digging it in. I sometimes get defensive when I hear about other situations after every thing I went through and I sometimes forget we are all fighting th...

im sorry if my first post was harsh. All I know is that my children were taken from me....all three of them. and i never had, before or since laid a hand on them; let alone left any marks. i dont believe in hitting children, some people think spanking (without leaving marks) is acceptable punishment...

a therapist told you that your hand is for love; a paddle is for the rules????????? that is by far the worst advice I have ever heard. I would get a new therapist. most of the parents that come to this site is because we have not done anything wrong. in your case, you lost control and paddled your c...

just a thought....but what kind of grandmother would make her grandchild go without her sleep apnea medicine? as for the birth certificate....they could have gone to vital statistics and gotten another one, no reason to fight over that one.

why did your neice give her custody in the first place? was cps ever involved before?

sexual abuse allegations are a tough one. the only way to get your children back is to somehow prove the allegations false. cps is not going to give them back. even i he admitted to it, and took the class they probably still would not return the children. if you cant prove them false, your pretty mu...

probably not, to be honest I dont think they would allow him to live with the children again even if he did admit and to the treatment class.

im so sorry to hear that this is happening to you. I know to how you feel. when my children were first taken....i went on a drinking bender for about a month (mind you i maybe drank socially 1 or 2 times a year prior to all this). however, I realized that when i sobered up i felt just as bad (someti...

just a note....every time we went to court the judge ruled in our favor, with dcf fighting against us the whole time. thats why I would suggest biting the bullet and calling thier bluff.

florida dcf will threaten you with whatever they think they have to to get you to do what they want. in my experience with florida dcf, the courts DO NOT side with them.....so I think they try to get you freaked out enough to agree with services so they dont have to try to explain thier case to a ju...

you say you and the father are not together? why did they take the child from you exactly?

i kinda find your post humorous. they actually substaintiated abuse over a child biting another? i couldnt tell you how many times my kids have come home with bites. my youngest daughter is a vampire child herself. shes one :) i have never once blamed the daycare for the bites. some kids just bite, ...

im not sure where you at, but here in florida you can apply for childrens medicaid if you are gaurdian to the child. im assuming you are. just fill out the form and it should have a palce where you state that you are either the parent or the legal gaurdian.

amoxicillin can cause false positive for cocaine on a cheap test. my husband had been taking amoxiciilin for a tooth infection and he took a cheap test at the courthouse that came back positive. they allowed us however to go to the hospital to challenge the test and the hospital test came back negat...

I thought that they could not force anyone to take a polygraph, they arnt admissible anyway.

also, and this is just my opinion of course.....if they ever show up on my door again, i would tell them to get a court order, even if they do, and your children are removed....i think you have a much better chance with a judge then you do dcf....just my opinion. I would NEVER let them in my house, ...

they played the same thing with me, when i refused to get the protective order, thats when they removed the children. it is very possible they would remove the children if she does go back to your home. you and your girlfriend have to get on the same page. either you fight them together, or not. as ...
