this evaluation that is disturbing to the caseworker, you need to get a copy of it. you will have to get a discovery motion, but it will be well worth it. she is probably blowing smoke up your butt. IMHO, you need to go in front of the judge, you need to rock thier boat. if you do not go in front of...

i have talked to my caseworker about this becuase my plan said it also. when i questioned her on it she changed to it read if we move or go out of town. no judge will enforce you leaving the house and calling them. they would get so upset if you called and said we are walking out the door to go to t...

i will tell you this, if i were you, i would still appeal. only a judge can reopen an investigation, if it is closed it is closed. well that is how it is in georgia. i would keep on fighting it esp. if i felt as strong about it as you do. that is just my opinion.

you are in a catch22. if you dont drop it, you could loss your girls, if you do you could get them back. it is a tough choice. the thought i have here is, no matter if you drop it now or not, if they get a call in the future, they will use it against you. they use substaniated/unsubstaniated against...

i dont understand that. how can a child make this decision? how can an agency ask a child to make a life decision like that? how can they ask about adoption, when your rights have not been terminated? this sounds really fishy. i would try to find out what is going on.

have you made this offer in court to the judge? what was the finding of your case, substaniated, unsubstaniate? sometimes the only way to find this answer is to goto the state office. they have what they call policy "specialist", these people are suppose to know the cps policy and are able to look a...

we are taught as a society that if we suspect abuse we should report it. that being said, what your daughter did was right if she felt it is what she had to do. unless you have dealt with the system you never know how it can turn on you. based on what you have said, i do not think you have much to w...

they always want you to sign stuff, but never want to give you a copy. i would ask her to mail you a copy so you could go over it and then you will get back to her about signing it. that you dont feel comfortable about signing anything without your husband/family reading it first esp. based on your ...

IMO, suing a caseworker will not solve anything. most of them only have a short term job expectancy, so after this goes, it will be replaced by two more. it reminds me of greek methology, you know you cut off the head of the beast and two more grow back, inorder to kill it you had to burn the head o...
