When abusive and alcoholic husband and father of three left his pregnant wife and three children his father called CPS on the pregnant mother of the three children with extreme false allegations. Cps investigator Karen Wiseman came out and visited house two days in a row and took pictures of children with their paternal grandmother and mother and took statements and asked for release of medical records for the children from the family doctor from the mother which I gladely signed because nothing was wrong with the children in fact one of the allegations that the childrens dad father made was that the 3yr old boy had pulled his hair out due to anger and she (Karen Wiseman) took a picture without any protest from the mother the childs head was full of hair and Ms.Wiseman herself commented how well the children looked and happy they where. Now since then I have tried to accomadate some of their requests of me and work it around my work schedule and please note that the father took the only family car also and that their is no public transportation in murphy, texas. So i was dependant on my family members to get out to work and the places CPS wanted me and the kids to go to. The ages of the children at that time where 5, 3, 1. Now to rush to present day the father filed for divorce in collin county in november and I could not afford an attorney and cannot get free legal aid due to being pregnant and then the fathers father and stepmother filed for temporary coservertorship of the children and with CPS by their side with no reports in hand the judge gave them the children and gave me a date when to hand over the children which i refused to do and was sent to jail while 6months pregnant and then they went after my entire family to get the kids while i was a week in jail because of contempt of court as it was stated, Since then i was taken into court by CPS and a new case worker assigned who is worse than the first caseworker and I have given them reports made by my young children of wrong happenings to them while in the care of the in-laws and they have ignored them. All tests i have been asked to do i have passed and they (CPS) cannot accept that fact they keep wanting more . Classes that they approve for me to go to per their court order they decide a month later and the wrong ones and its all a waiting for them to decide to give me the info when ever theyfeel like it. They continue to show in court for review hearings and stand there and lie and yet the father(husband) has yet to follow through on what was asked of him to do back in August and November by CPS and the judge(but thats ok with all of them) in the mean time I have to pay to see my three young children 3 times a week for two hours each time for a cost of $110.00 each time .And once a week at the CPS office in Los Rios in Plano for a one hour supervisored visit and which the case worker herself stood before the judge and said she herself would be there to watch me with the kids and take the notes but yet so far three visits and on the last visit she came out and sat with the intern taking the notes on me and my kids and never even spoke to the kids or me stayed there for less than 5 minutes and when back inside and was never seen again. LIES, LIES, LIES all the time by CPS and yet they had me sign a release for the medical records of the kids twice and they did not remove the children but yet they stand up there with the in-laws and in front of the judge continue to lie lie lie. Please someone come to the aid of my poor kids who were taken away from their mother and their family and their catholic school, and their church and their doctor and their neighbors and all that was familiar to them and completely trust into strangers hands because of CPS and money! These kids are desperate to come home and ask on each visit which i am more that happy to share all the notes that are taken from my visits with the children to show that what i say is not in anyway a lie or fabrication of the truth the kids are now 6, 4 and two . Time is an issue because the new baby is due any day now and these kids will not be with their newest sibling because of what CPS has continued to lie about .

The CPS caseworker never bothered to get the medical records from the family doctor who has taken care of the kids since birth even though she requested a written release from me twice! And also when I took the children to a cps ordered clinic for an exam they passed with flying colours in fact the staff were so happy with the kids that they even stated " they wish they could clone the three of them" ! So just because everything was positive like my psych evaluation they still cant except it and keep trying to dig for more but yet the father of the children has yet to do anything that he was requested to do by CPS and the judge and this has been since August of last year? Why havent they been dogging him about it? Oh but lets not forget it was his father and stepmother that made that first false statement call to CPS to start with. And lets not forget that the only neglect was by the FATHER of the children and any abuse was by the FATHER of the children and even though he was given ONE SUPERVISED VISIT A MONTH by the judge he shows up all the time with the kids. Oh but get who is superviseing his weekend, yes, his stepmother! So I guess that explains why he is always around them.

I am not suing he is suing me and so are the inlaws. I would never have filed for a divorce because he has always come and gone throughout the marriage and I always had hope he would grow up and realize what he had missed out on. But my posting was against CPS and their case workers who out and out lied in front of a judge.And yes what happened to your freedom of speech in this country even if you are involved in a law suit you should still be able to express or are the rules differant?
There has to be some good lawyers out there that have become lawyers to fight for right and wrong not just doing it for the money and thats what I hope to find and my heart and prayers go out to all of you who are in the same situation as me.Remember anyone who would like copy of my documents to prove what I say please just let me know.Donna Hackett-Beach.

I am a california mother who feels your pain and i too am now going through something kind of like what your going through i have a 5yr old child and currently 4 1/2 months pregnant also am an adopted daughter to Iola Fountain a Reginal Administrator for Department of Children Family Services in Los Angeles County & Pomona i have had 2 workers on my case which with the 1st worker in San Bernardino County in Rialto Jhon Robenson, was closed 2009 in january & a month from today found out that the case was closed. CPS then told me I have legal right to get my son & they weren't involved. Almost a year before all of this CPS made me sign temperary guardianship to my Aunt & I refused @ 1st until Jhon Robenson repeatedly said if you dont write a letter in my own handwriting stating that my could have temp. gaurdianship until i get stable housing which i already had, & income which I also had (Calworks) aka Welfare, & was waiting for my SSI to be accepted then i could have my son. And there is a whole lot more drama still going on.

As a CPS worker, not in Texas, it is not just our judgment to make these decisions. It is of the medical reviews, mental health review, teachers, doctors, counselors, personal collateral's that verify the neglect in the home. That is why it is called an investigation. When we testify in court, we are testifying to written documentation from all of these collateral's as well as conversations that we had with the client. It is not in our best interest to "lie" at all since it is in the running progress notes that the judge is holding. Neglect isn't defined as just physical abuse..but a whole combined environment of instability for over a period of time. So yes maybe the parents do not want to lie or see it as they are lying, but if they understand the laws, rules and regulations of child protective, they would understand that they are not meeting minimal degree of care- anonymous

I know what its like to have your whole heart and soul ripped from your body... It sure is fun... Especially when everyone tells you to "get over it", or "time heals all wounds", and I really love this one, "it gets better". IT NEVER ###ING GETS BETTER! MAYBE IF THEY WERE IN MY SHOES, THEY MIGHT SEE WHAT IM GOING THROUGH AND WHY I HATE MY LIFE! Im not selfish, I just don't think they understand what its like to loose everything you ever loved and cared about, and did nothing to result in losing it.

That is not weird at all. If you are taking someone to court. NEVER post it in public. The defence lawyers already have an idea of what arguments to bring forward. Any lawyer would have advised this. I wonder why yours did not.

Good luck with your case. I have seen children in the system who are only in the system because someoe lied(such as your case with your ex and his wife). Then there are children whose live are in danger and they go back to their homes.

I am not going to take sides here. Don't know what is the truth, but if you are innocent I wish you have your children returned to you. However if your ex is innocent I wish him the best of luck. The people who really are sufferin are the children.

I am not a lawyer, but I advice you to contact complaintsboard.com and have this letter removed so your ex's lawyers don't find a way to use it against you.

RIP OFF OF CHILDREN IN AMERICA FOR A $21 BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY

Child Protective Agencies are stealing our children daily. Lying to the courts and paying big bucks to the ones willing to help in this scam of all time. Phycologists, therapists, public defenders, and foster parents. All get paid a big bounty (authorized by the President's office) to place a child in the system. Another bounty for placing them in an adoptive home, another when the adoption falls through, another for each home they are moved to. The foster parents are abusive physically, sexually, and emotionally. The CPS workers are only too happy to remove children that are normal and adoptable. The workers shy away from the children that truly need intervention. I have a serious case in the system now.

I have accomplished something that only 5% of the people do, I recently won an appeal against the juvinal courts and the court of appeal just overturned my termination of parental rights. I lost parental rights due to the fact that I listened and believed my three daughters when they came to me and said that thier father was molesting them. What kind of a human (not to mention a loving mother) would I be if I did not listen to the cries for help by three innocent girls? What reward did I get for listening? My ex-husband (who had three restraining orders on him for domestic violence-which he was violating on a regular basis and thrown in jail on three separate occasions for violating them) was successful in making enough reports to CPS that they showed up on my door one day and took my children. That was [protected]. I have not seen my girls since [protected] due to the gung ho worker that was trying to make a name for himself by persucuting and innocent woman who by the way went to CPS herself on 4 occasions to report the abuse by the ex only to have the worker say, "You are a protecting parent and are doing a good job. The girls seem to be happy and safe with you."

There is strong religious prejudice overtones here that can not be ignored. I know that the Monterey County courts in Salinas CA are much to blame by not looking into matters, qualifying defense attorneys and not even reading the reports given to the courts.

The gung ho worker's name is James Michael Richey he used to work at 100 S. Main Street, Salinas Ca [protected]. He was shipped to Contra Costa County after testifying against me and admitting that, " the "department" regularly and routinely put misinformation in the reports to the courts and if they find out that the information is wrong they do not make a correction in the record." The worker that took over for him, Patricia Riley, is no better she has testified that her actions are governed by the predessor's wishes and that even though he is gone he still calls the shots and she feels obligated to continue the reports and they stand.

The CPS income in this county is over 120 milion per year!

The issue is money not protection of the children.

Irene Senst

of want to share horror stories, or want to help. I am looking for an attorney that cares for justice and willing to defend me. I am filing a report with the aclu, grand jury, and the state of california and will update this as new info comes to the forfront.

Families are being abused by the very system, which was put into place to protect them. A checks and balance system to control Child Protective Services (CPS) Family Abuse needs to be put in place to ensure that the rights of the families involved are not violated. Help protect the children and families who cannot protect themselves.

It has long been said that Caseworkers who remove children from their homes are being given %u201CBonuses%u201D for the removal of children. It is also said that Children placed for Adoption (and Termination of Parental Rights also known as TPR) bring the caseworkers additional %u201CBonuses%u201D. This practice is morally unethical and must be stopped immediately.

Congress needs to step in and regulate the pay and compensation of Child Protective Services Employee%u2019s and all State or Federal Employee%u2019s who have any participation in the removal of Children from their homes.

When a Child is removed from their home, the agency must be required to provide the family of the removed children with Competent Legal Representation thru the entire process at the expense of the State Agency.

No Government Agency or Agent shall ever be compensated for the removal of a child.

States MUST be required to provide proof of all mailings to parties involved with the case. As it is often well known that they don%u2019t always mail notification as State Laws Require.

Regulations must be made to place children in the homes of Relatives who are able and willing to provide a safe and loving home for the children when they are removed from a parent.

Regulations must be made to place children who are unable to be reunited with a parent with a blood relative who are able and willing to provide a safe and loving home on a permanent basis. State Regulations must include proper notification to all blood relatives, with proof of notification.

Regulations and Guidelines must be put in place to make the process for families of removed children to apply for placement of the children in a Kinship home, including families that are applying for placement through Interstate Compact on Placement of Children, also known as ICPC.

They don't help people..They aren't our friends...They are our enemy...They seek, kill, and destory...Ya know, I've lost everyone of my kids because of these selfish idiots who think they run others lives. I call it a hostage to the government. They totally destroy familes, and shatter dreams and childhoods. There is no way to get over the loss of a child and these idiots will never understand that. They have no remorse for the parents...They just assume we are all crazy so they send us to these stupid psych crap among other dumb things...But guess what its always good to know your rights...yes Constitutional rights and miranda rights. Plus keep in mind mothers, we do not have to let them in our home without a court order or search warrant. ...Its time to put a stop to the torment mothers go through with these people.

The CPS agency in any state and county are all liars and corrupt. They tell you that they will be honest with you and they will say that everything looks ok, then they send you a court date and read a statement on how you treat your family like [censor]. They don't ever go back on their first assumption even in the face of evidence that clearly states the truth.

Read my blog, mine is not the worst but it's pretty much like anyone else's, CPS and the child abusers!

My heart goes out to you. I cannot imagination having your children taken away from you. Posting on the internet wasn't the best way to handle it though. It sickens me that innocent children are taken away from the only parent they know. I hope that you soon are reunited with your children. I would talk to a lawyer about suing the state for unlawfully taking your children from you. If they had no proof of abuse, than the children should never have been taken from your custody. All I can say is keep fighting for your children.

I know California, is guilty of prosecuting the mother, while allowing an abusive father to have visitation, and not having to take the required classes the mother is. This is wrong, unethical, and dangerous for the children. If the children were taken away because of physical abuse, than the father should also be required to take the same classes that the mother is. If the father fails to do so, than his visitation should be terminated.

Contact your family, friends, church, and try and get funding to have good quality legal representation. In this huge mess, this would probably be your only way of winning custody of your children back. Once you have custody, move to a different state, far away from your horrible ex and his horrible parents. The damage your spiteful ex is doing to his own children is unforgivable! Abusive men are pathological liars, manipulators, and bullies. It makes me so angry that abusive, neglectful parents can cause so much turmoil to their own children, and many states are backing this behavior! I don't understand why the state is so busy prosecuting the responsible parent, while enhancing the rights of dead beat bully abusive fathers! What does this country want another generation of abusers? That is what is in store for us, if the laws don't change regarding abusive parents!

I do agree that if he abused you, you should be taking classes to help you understand why, and stop the cycle of abuse for you and your children. California does have wonderful programs for women that have been abused. What I don't understand is, why the abuser is allowed to have contact with their children, sometimes unsupervised, while the mothers are forced to have supervised visitation, and on an alarming regular basis, their children are taken away from their mother. Unless the children are neglected, not attending school, living in a dirty unsuitable living situation, are starving.. Than as long as the mother is taking the required classes, while properly taking care of her children, and attending counseling, the children should remain with their mother, and is abiding by the restraining order, and not allowing the abusive spouse into their home.

My ex was abusive, and my children clung to the only responsible parent they had. It would have devastated my boys if they had been taken away from me. It would have scarred them for life. That in many cases, is what the Child Protective Services are doing. What get's me is, you hear often about foster parents abusing children in their care, killing them, or neglected/abused children ignored by this system, that is set up to stop children from abuse. It makes me sick. Just the other day, there was a new case with a two year old boy, that was being physically abused by the foster mom's boyfriend. Even though the biological mother reported the abuse, Child Services neglected to investigate. Now, the child is dead because the boyfriend threw him into a wall. A fine example of a failing system.

God be with you, and your children. I hope with all my heart that your children are returned to you. Take advantage of the classes you have been taking. Learn the warning signs of an abusive personality. Someday, you may date again, and you never want to be at this situation again. Make sure your future mate has a wonderful family, and is loving, hardworking, and kind. The classes helped me, and now I am in a healthy, loving relationship. Good luck to you. I am sorry for what you are suffering. Hope your new baby helps heal some of the wounds.

I am a grandmother of 3 kids that were taken away from their mother just recently and my son he has been trying to get them back and get info where they are and why they took the kids away like they did. The CPS treated him like he was dirt and would not give him any info and wouldn't even let him have his kids back or see them. They told him he would have to wait to go to court to see what the Judge says. This has made me so upset that they (CPS) didn't even try to put them with family first and my grandkids now are in a foster home with strangers they don't even know. Can you imagine what it does to a 2 yrs old and a 1 yrs old? The baby is only a month old so she doesn't even know what is happening. I have been on the phone with the CPS and I have told them I would take my granddaughters in my home and they tell me we have to wait til court. Can you believe these people. How would they feel it this was their children or grandkids being taken away like that and put them with strangers? Here we have people who are really abusing and killing kids and these parents have had reports on them and the CPS does not do any thing and then we hear the child is dead as like the little girl Zhara whose parents killed her and CPS had reports on them and they did not do a thing to helep that little girl and now here she is dead. This makes me sick to my stomach. I know one thing I am going to hired an attorney to make sure this never happens again with my grandkids.

Dearest Stealth Pilot, Obviously by your comments it is easy to see that you are indeed one of those caseworkers that abuse the fact that you have such authority. You show your lack of heart and understanding in every word you wrote. I know that there are good caseworkers out there but they are far to rare. You have the compasion of a slaughter house worker and I'm sure smell the same too. It is no wonder as to why you'd sign your comment "Stealth Pilot". You should be stealthly to avoid being physically harmed.
May you feel every feeling for all eternity that you've made others feel in your life.

Ii have been dealing with cps for 10 months and my worker will not return or answer any of my phone calls so that i can set up a meeting with my daughter before I check into rehab. i would really like to change social workers. Does anyone on here know how I can go about doing that? I am running out of time to see her, so the sooner the better. thank you

This is the letter I sent to Riverside DPSS, because my grandchildren's case is being heard there, but they (their parents) live in san Bernardino. I can't get anyone to help me. I'm very devastated:
I am the grandparent of the above children. They are custody of DPSS in San Bernardino. My granddaughter, Lenora drown December 14, 2013, when her mom, Jameshia Roberson, left her and her brother, Dajoryen in a tub of running water. Dajoryen was taken from the home and placed in foster care. Since that I date, when, David Shelton, called me and asked if I wanted to have my background done to have Dajoryen placed with me, I said yes. I gave him my DOB, Social security no, everything he needed to have my background and my husbands done. I never heard back from him. My next communications regarding my grandson was from my son, Melvin Stanford, who I feel this is really about, because he has a prison record for a his daughter dying while under his care. In that case, I adopted his son Melvin Jr., he was 2 years old. He is now 11 years old.

The new caseworker, Christine Diaz, told my son, Melvin, that I would never get custody of Dajoryen. She had never meet or talked to me. When my son told me what she said, I got her number from him and called her immediately. I asked about my background paperwork, she said she knew nothing about it. I explained to her, that I had given vital personal information to a person name David Shelton. She told me she did not know anything about that. I told her what my son said, she neither denied nor admitted to that statement. I told her I was interested in my grandson being given to me, since I had his older brother.
We had several other conversations, where I thought perhaps, if I gave her background on Jameshia, she could get her help, which I felt she needed. She was young, very immature. She took that information and took it back to Jameshia and told her I did not like her, I gave all kinds of mean and demeaning information to her about her. Jameshia called me and told me. I told her I was trying to get her help. a week later, Jameshia tried to stab my son, he had her put in a mental health situation so that she could be observed. I told the caseworker, what happened. Again she told her, I was being mean and she would never let me have Dajoryen.

They had the custody hearing. Dajoryen was awarded to her father, Mr. James Roberson. She didnt want him to be awarded to him, because he had hit her and mistreated her as a child. They went around the room (I was on the telephone for the hearing) They asked if everyone agreed to Mr. Roberson having Dajoryen. I asked about my background check. Mrs. Diaz had not even had it done. I was very hurt. They only ran Mr. Roberson's because as she said months before, "I would never get my grandson. Finally they ran the background, I had the home essessment. I passed everything.

This case gets even longer aftet Jameshia has another baby, Imperial Essense and isn't sure if they will take her baby or not. She concocts a story to spend more time with the baby, so she tells them (and my son tell them also) that I have the baby, when in fact I do not) they just don't want to give up their little girl, when one has died so recently. Now Mrs. Diaz goes to court and says, I can not see nor ever have custody of my grandchildren.

I love my grandchildren. I have twenty-three, and I love everyone of them. I'm so heartbroken that this CPSS worker has some type of dislike for me and has at every turn tried to keep me out of their lives. How is it that DPSS states that their main goal is trying to reunite families and they are about families, but try their hardest to tear families apart. I really don't understand how that is of the best interest of the child. It may very well be the what Children Protective services think is best for my grandchildren, but they are so wrong. Because where as the parents of the grandson I adopted have been able to feel gratification in knowing that I will tell them about their parents and they can write and send cards, it has made him feel proud of himself and made the parents feel good too. So what ever Ms. Diaz is doing is counterproductive and has nothing to do with the goals and mission statement of DPSS. I want to be reconsidered for custody of my grandchildren immediately with another caseworker. I think this is so devastating to everyone involved, except Ms. Diaz, who has some type of judgement problem, I'm not sure.

Thank you for your time and consideration, l
