The police and even hospital employees concluded we did not abuse or neglect our child, but we've been fighting CPS since 2016 to get our child back. Previous to being taken by CPS our child who has never been sick, never as much as had one single ear infection or ever had to be hospitalized, while in CPS custody had needed hospitalization, repeatedly had drastic weight fluctuations (over 20 pounds) of weight in relatively short (2 to 3 month) periods and was diagnosed with failure to thrive. My child has suffered more damage from an emotional and medical standpoint while in custody of CPS than she would have had she been allowed to stay home with us. We are loving parents. We don't drink, smoke or do drugs. We're both college educated professionals. I have a degree in childhood education and development and used to work as a teacher, but decided to be a stay at home mom. CPS rips children out of loving homes, damages the parents' reputation, career, and lives while simultaneously causing irreparable harm to the child. CPS has stated their goal is to have our child adopted by a non-family member. FACT, if our child gets adopted as per CPS wishes, they get more government funding than if they return our child back to us. We were never even charged with abusing or harming our child; they have no reason not to return her to us, other than the financial incentive. They are making money off of my child. Plain and simple.

This is also how the compartmentalization of our government is designed to protect itself. The person who opened charges against me was my ex-husband and he works in government intelligence, so there was literally nothing I could do to protect my children once I had placed them both in a public school system. This is where the children can be legally removed by other 'academic (gov) professionals' who will straight out LIE in order to remove a targeted child for state trafficking, as was in my case that lasted for over 18 months. Parents: Don't let this happen be your story. Please remove your precious children from this beast public school system.

Burnout rate is definitely hard one sees a lot of terrible things that can cause one to loose faith in humanity knowing that someone would treat children like what one sees. I was asked why I didn’t want that job full time after completing my degree I said “they don’t pay enough for me to become an alcoholic”.

[@kimberlyescorcia6931]

Yep I've heard terrible stories, enough to make most people lose it and have a mental breakdown. Sexual abuse even in infants, child pornography set ups, incest, children living in terrible conditions (like a floor full of feces and rat infested beds), children living in homes with meth labs, a child's face beyond recognition from abuse, child reporting being thrown into the wall, shaken babies, dead babies and toddlers, the list goes on and on. So many times, parents who abuse their children (let me emphasize parents who DO abuse their children) blame CPS or "the system" instead of doing some self-reflection and realizing that maybe taking anger out on children isn't a good coping skills after all. When you see how incredibly prevalent child abuse, severe child abuse at that, is in the world, it makes you question the authenticity of everyone around you. It can break you if you let it. How many of the people saying that every CPS worker is evil can handle seeing or reading about severely abused children on the daily without going crazy? Reformation is needed

And by pulling the lever on such a generous slot machine, anyone who needs to be bought off can be.

I have endured a similar struggle, finding myself innocent of any wrongdoing, yet still facing the heart-wrenching removal of both of my sons. In response, I lodged a formal complaint with the Civil Rights Commission in Washington, D.C., and we are now courageously pursuing a federal lawsuit against the state of Mississippi for such grievous actions. This matter, I regret to say, extends beyond mere legalities; it is both a spiritual challenge and a calculated attack on the alpha male's role within the home. Spiritually speaking, I serve as a minister with an untarnished reputation, surrounded by family members who were more than capable of caring for my children. Despite this, one of my children was placed in foster care, while the other was given to my mother, their grandmother. This occurred even though their mother relinquished them to the state, where, by all norms, they should have been placed with the next of kin. Yet, this fundamental principle was inexplicably ignored.

I would like to point out just because a parent is using doesn't mean the kids are abused or neglected. I believe she did the right thing with that mom in show, because the father is not on drugs, the older kids are in daycare when dads at work. Also CPS is a joke! My daughters father got arrested my daughter was not with him at the time, well they found drug stuff in the house and because my daughter lived there. It was in his drawer, but because she lived there he got charged with indangering the welfare of a child. Fast forward they call me to tell me her dad got arrested I said o OK were not together and my daughter was with me so why dose this involve me? O well when there is an open cps case we investagate both parents okay, they then start asking me about my son who has a different father and I said wait what's my son got to do with this? I did do anything? We look at all the mothers children!? Wait what? So I said okay so if justin( my daughters father) had other children would you look into them being as how hes the one that did something wrong? No just the mother!? I was completely lost! They then proceeded to remove my son because I lived with my dad and he has a bad criminal record, mind you he was charged with something and the case was dropped! Still took my son and ordered that my daughter go stay with her fathers mother! Again at this point They had no complaint on me! They just ran everyone's names in my dads house and did like his record! Went to court about 3 days later they did this over the weekend. And the judge looked at the paper work goes why were these children removed!? What did the mother do? Who was arrested? And they don't live together? And her father was a aquited on those charges! This is ridiculous you need to worry about this little girls father not her mother. Give the kids back to.the mother I'll deal with the father when he gets out of rehab. Thankfully I had a reasonable judge had I not who's knows? CPS took one of my cousins kids but not the other if she's such a risk why is she allowed to keep the other kid? You know why people want babies and cps gets cash money for them! Same reason my infant son was put in foster care and not my 6 year old people want babies and CPS will ste them and get money for it too. Don't speak to CP's, don't take any tests do nothing without a warrant that's my advice.

60-90% of trafficked children from fostercare. Governors need to stop contributing to the delinquency of minors in their state, by giving grandparents rights when their grandchildren are placed in fostercare. Workers are told to "try" to place with family but they often dont. In fact, they dont even allow grandparents to visit their grandchildren while they are in fostercare. They often wont allow them in courtroom when the grandparent filed for custody. Grandparents often report the abuse and workers ignore them ,so when its proved they are right,workers dont want to look bad in court.
