Need to vent

I've been posting in the forums of our local paper and following the story of 3 year old girl (TaJanay Bailey) beaten to death by her mother and the live in boyfriend. CPS workers seem to be coming out of the woodwork to defend the system. They also seem to be determined to be blind to the truth and...

Congratulations. It's sad that you're forced to worry about the new baby because of them. If it's been more than 30 days since they invaded your life, file a complaint with the state CPS office and the prosecutor. It's a violation of federal law for them to not give you a case plan within 30 days. I...

Finn, my heart goes out to you. It's horrible the way your family has been treated and to know they might decide to harrass you all over again. I hope and pray you will beat the criminal charges, and I pray you are able to pay the bills so they can't push a CHINS case against you.

Thank you for the advice and the congratulations. We'll talk to the family who is already willing to take our older two children if CPS ever comes around again. They are some of our oldest and most trusted friends. As for an age gap, our daughter will be 16 next month and our son almost 14 when the ...

Will they leave us alone now?

We found out we're going to have a baby sometime in March. After having dealt with CPS twice and everything we went through the second time, how can we make sure they leave us alone now? We live in a two bedroom trailer, our dauther is in high school and by the time the lack of a bedroom could reall...

Sherry has passed 3 drug tests, all voluntary, and they claim they need to keep a CHINS case open because she may "have a chemical im...

Case closed

Or so Gina said. We haven't gotten any papers yet, but once she saw George in the office asking for a cps manual, she knew we were onto her. She came by for a last visit last week and asked what we were looking for in the manual. I told her she had violated a federal law and we fully intend to see h...

What do you do when

they keep stringing you along? We had a review hearing today, and our case manager said she hopes to be done with us before the next review hearing in Sept. However we were never given a case plan and it seems she's just keeping it going for no reason. Our public defender and the GAL were both stunn...

Wow. The lies they tell are horrible. As far as it being legal for them to watch you or your husband, I've had them follow me when I'm out walking with the kids. They even have a spy who helps the mildly mentally handicapped man across the lane from us sit in his car and watch our trailer. He follow...

Here most cases seem to last longer. For whatever reason they like to speed ours through. The oral case plan as directed to us by both CPS and mental health was, get rid of the cats (done), get a job (for my husband, he was having trouble finding work, but again done), move and get a new place to li...

Hopefully after tomorrow they'll be done with us. However Pascal stopped by yesterday with another woman and said she'd be taking over our case. I don't know what's up their sleeves. I know we're going to pick the kids up from school and have them testify, even if CPS doesn't like it. The GAL has se...
