I couldn't see my kids for 90 days... they wanted to make sure that I was going to stay clean and to make sure I was serious about getting them back. They don't want parents showing up and then disappearing again.. it's so much harder on the kids.

[@beer1403]

What kind of life did you give your kids???

[@LlamaLlamaMamaJamaac]

It sounds like you’re doing better now? Congratulations and continued wellness! ❤

[@gabriellesummers1426]

I'm glad you got healthy for your babies because no one is like mom when mom is healthy.

[@leaveittoweaver4525]

I just want to applaud you for doing what u had to do. I hope you're doing well & see your babies. You absolutely are worth staying healthy & deserve a clean life with your kids. U got this. ❤❤❤❤

[@lostineggsaisle]

Good job! Getting sober is hard. I'm a recovering addict. I've been in recovery for over 8 years and I just want to tell you it is possible too get clean and stay clean. There are so many programs out there that can help. There are so many different ways to lead a life in recovery. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. Don't let anybody tell you you are a bad person or a bad mother because you are an addict. Using is a choice, but being an addict is not. You are not a bad person for being an addict and people that haven't been through it don't understand.

[@All5AJz]

My daughter refuses any of these services and hasn't taken one step forward in the almost 4 yrs I have had them. It's not up to you to make bargains for your own needs but for the children's needs. It's not easy to just take rights away but when it happens it's important to be part of what they ask for the child's sake. 😊

[@lesliemathes3723]

When they sent my kids to live with my dad, I did 30 days in rehab & 45 days in jail. I was only taking loratabs (I say ONLY because in the world of drugs,loratabs are considered the same as a baby aspirin) and it still took 6months for me to bring them home. I was mad and felt they was All against me but after I got my head straight I realized they wanted to help me be better for my kids. Now after 11 yrs still clean and living the mom life, I want to help others in my shoes understand they do need help because their kids deserve parents that are present & active. Kids are precious and should be treated as such!

[@BrookeMcLymond]

Great recovery story! I don't know what you do for work but I know Peer Advocate positions are on the rise and in high demand. 💙☺️

[@theshadowbehindyou9631]

In the world of drugs and your kids, it doesn’t matter if you consider an illegal narcotic “baby aspirin” and being an addict who’s been clean going on 9 years that sounds like a qualifier and a way of making your addiction issues seem and sound way less severe than they were. Congrats on getting and staying sober but let’s not sugar coat our past problems for the courts saw your issues bad enough to remove your children, issue rehab and jail for you based on your comment.

You are right about people on the drug world saying "oh you ONLY take pain killers" like since it isn't stronger your life doesn't spin out of control *eye roll*. No one is perfect, at least when addicts get clean we're honest about it. I hope you're proud of yourself everyday because you should be.

[@amandaharris5055]

​@theshadowbehindyou9631 its obvious you dont understand what shes trying to say. People like to say a pill addiction isnt that big of deal compared to other addictions. Even if its wrong, thats how alot of people see it. She was saying that even though some see it as "not that bad" it still took her awhile to get her kids back.

[@amandalynn1762]

My ex nearly killed my daughter at 6 weeks. I spent months proving i had no idea he was an abusive POS. It doesn't matter if you didn't do what they are accusing you of doing, It is your job to prove to them you are a good parent and will always put your kid first. The fact people get into a pissing contest instead of do what they need for their kids speak volumes of the person they are.

Babies testing positive for meth due to the parents use ..

[@ashleypatten2304]

How does that happen? Do they have to do it around the kid for that to happen?

[@purpleandred7]

@@ashleypatten2304 yes .. and the Judge also said that meth can be transfered to the baby from the parents hands or body, and their clothes. That was shocking to hear. The poor baby had extremely high levels of meth in his system. How terribly horrible and heartbreaking that is.

[@lostineggsaisle]

​@@purpleandred7 It really is crazy because it takes a massive amount of meth use to transfer enough meth biproduct from your body to somebody else's body to cause them to test positive. When you use meth it's secreted out of your skin by sweat, other body oils, and stuff like that and urine of course, but it takes a lot of use to transfer person to person like that.

I have heard this so many times from people like her. I used to work in the clinic where people comes and get their drug test. When it would come back positive they would say that the lab tampered with it. We had to call a supervisor to do the tests and they still was not satisfied. They even tried to sue the clinic for tampering. They ended up not winning the case.

[@lulu5803]

A lab owner in AL got in trouble for tampering with paternity and drug tests, so it happens. I'm sure it's very rare though. When that happened here, my heart just broke for the families she potentially ripped apart.

[@mpettway6982]

There have been cases of labs tampering/forging results.

[@BrookeMcLymond]

​@@mpettway6982I think Massachusetts had 2 huge lab scandals. We send ours out of state. They have no interest in the results. The ones in Massachusetts were testing for local agencies and testing evidence for Court cases in the areas they were located. There is documentary on it. It's sh*tty because you have to spend more, and you are creating revenue outside of your own municipality but to avoid conflicts of interest and potential corruption, scandals and everything else that goes along with it, the benefits far outweigh the risk.

​@@lulu5803im from Birmingham al. I definitely remember that and it scared the shit out of me because I was pregnant at the time and never really thought about something like that happening.

[@b.maxwell]

​@@BrookeMcLymond the problem I'm having here in Nevada is that my tests were coming back negative and they were sent out of state to a lab but when the facility here gets the lab reports, the courts never actually see them. I stead the facility writes their own summary including a paragraph report about the results. In my case and I'm sure many others, this facility changes the results or incorrectly interpret the results to corroborate the results of the faulty ass sweat patch. Example. I was getting positive sweat patch results but not using, I started taking my own urine tests every other day while on this patch to show no drug use. Judge refused to look at them because it wasn't at a place they contract with but at one point after I had a clean and healthy baby, she did add two random urine tests weekly at the same facility administering the patch. All patches were positive but all urines were negative. Instead of reporting this discrepancy, they decided to instead write in their summary that although I had negative urine tests, the raw data they got from the lab report stated that there actually was meth and amphetamine in my urine but it was just below the cutoff. I contacted the out of state lab myself and was sent copies of the actual lab reports along with a signed affidavit and a letter that stated that levels of drugs below the cut off so not exist in my case. Judge still refused to hear it. I lost my case and got my judge disqualified. New judge, opposing counsel insists they want me drug tested and monitored on the patch. I agreed with the sole intention of this time proving beyond a reasonable doubt that this patch was giving false positives. That victory is about to come to fruition finally in the next few weeks. But when I went back in to this facility again they asked for a urine sample before putting on the patch. I get word that my urine results were positive for meth. Again I contacted the lab for my actual lab results and low and behold yes my results were positive for meth but........... Negative for amphetamines!!!!! Wtf?? And....... The facility had the lab test my urine at a lower cut off than normal. If this facility doesn't get shut down and the owner arrested by the end of this year then I have no hope and no trust in the system whatsoever.

"I have a right to see my children." Actually, you don't.... if you're participating in things that might cause them harm, you lose the PRIVILEDGE of seeing them. Maddening when there are 8 people on a Zoom call and the only one out of the 8 that DOESN'T have the children's best interests in mind is the mother.. (and as an aside, that mom is either high AF right now, or she's just coming off a bender, because she can barely stay awake.)

[@BrookeMcLymond]

She actually does have the right to visitation, unless she has her parental rights terminated. Child protective services are legally required to make diligent efforts to reunify the children with the parents until the permanency goal is changed to "freed for adoption." That process cannot even begin until the date in January that the Judge gave. Until then, the entire goal is for those children to talk to, see, maintain and build a healthier relationship with their parents. I'm not sure why virtual visits weren't being offered? Maybe they're already in place. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@kristenpino4635]

​​@@BrookeMcLymondShe absolutely does not have the right to visitation with her child until many issues have been dealt with. She has that right if she is abiding by the orders of the court. Also, depending on the circumstances she MAY have the privilege of video communication. It is not her right just because she is a parent. She does not need her parental rights terminated before visitation ends. She has to work a reunification order and follow it and the parental plan.

[@BrookeMcLymond]

Not necessarily true. The relative that takes custody is typically monitored for a period of time and is responsible for ensuring the health and safety of the kiddos too. If they allow the parent to be unsafe with the kids, put the kids at risk, etc...they then can become subjects named on the report and have the kids removed from their care. The family member often becomes part of the "service plan" and is under the court order too.

[@BrookeMcLymond]

*gasp* and clutching my pearls over here! Someone not follow an order?!? If I used too many big words, or words in general, let me make it more simple. When someone else takes custody of a child from an unfit parent, they are now legally responsible for keeping the child safe. If they don't follow the orders, the kid can get removed from them and they can be subject to neglect and abuse proceeding as well. If they make those choices, there are typically safeguards. Like having the kids removed again, and yes, I'm well aware it happens.

[@kristenpino4635]

I agree and the court order that is put into place to protect that from happening is just that, an order. Orders are broken and hidden every day. We hope placements obey these orders they doesn't necessarily mean they will.

Those kids tested positive at birth, or if the children have been taken out, because the mother and or the father are actively using drugs and not maintaining a home I think one year if they’re not sober for one year, then they should automatically have the children taken.

I wish they would of done that if it was permitted.

[@lizaaltizer7775]

That is the nature of addiction. People engaged in it have no thoughts outside themselves. When someone intervenes to tell then why what they are doing is wrong, they don’t understand. They truly believe that if they think it’s ok, everyone else is wrong. Even if their children are positive for meth and having withdrawals.

[@impalamama7302]

It is very common for people who have addictions usually end up staying at extended stay motels where they an pay by the week. These are usually run down motels in not very good part of town. This is the last step until the addiction progresses to the point they can't support their habit and pay the weekly rate, and they end up homeless and living on the street..

They likely do care in their heart, but addiction is a beast that takes over. That's one of the things that differentiates drug use/abuse from drug addiction. I KNOW without a doubt that my dad loved me, but his addiction to alcohol and prescription drugs took over at times.

And when the judge said ‘when was the last time you used meth’ she said when she was caught and then proceeded to talk for a few minutes about all of her symptoms of not using…..a bit suspicious

[@patriciaevans5906]

I find it hard to understand why you have to go so far in explaining to people if you ask for help there’s a possibility you’ll get it…but not day of or nite before….think about what you need to do….problem is not not knowing but not asking is a problem….and the third woman has major attitude….and she does have a right to see he kids if she does what she’s supposed to do…..she needs to think about how she got here…..blame someone else.

Meth lingers in the body, for weeks, or m9btus based on these court cases. And leaches thru the skin during all that time, and can dose kids or others who have skin to skin contact. Hmmm. Mom says a director of a Lab has motive to lie about her having a positive drug test. But does not say what is the motive. Go to another lab. Uber, bus, family ride....

The background noise in second case…does it mean someone is recording?

most likely watching the case on KZbin or a second device close by was logged in to the meeting

The second hearing, the mom looks like she has a severe meth addiction. IDK if that's true yet, but I'm guessing...

[@trinityh3939]

I think if someone is testing positive the courts shouldnt bend their backs to get them transportation. She can find a way to gwt her drugs she can find a way to do the things that she needs to do for her kids.

The judge is wrong about this never happening that they only want them to test clean. It does happen in some cases because they do not like you. I know somebody personally that I was watching over and she was clean and had been clean for some time and kept getting sanctioned. We talked to a lawyer and he got her started at a different place and she tested clean everytime even hair follicles. Also when she told the judge this and showed him the papers the man who had originally been doing the test was fired. Turns out only one person in his group was testing negative and when she was tested she was positive

@@Justaskme781 I've done all of that My issue is with the sweat patch giving false positives and the company in Vegas that is giving the sweat patch who isn't even licensed in drug and alcohol therapy or rehabilitation are also changing urine results to corroborate the false positive patch results but I'm on it I'm done with the urine and the hair testing to prove I'm not using because I did 70 urines every other day while I was wearing the patch and nine hair test that were all negative and then when the judge wouldn't look at them I said fuck it I'm not going to do any more of your drug test and I lost my daughter but they've got another thing coming to them next week when I start doing blood draws every single day for 2 weeks while I wear the patch they can't tell me I fudged that one
