I have had the horrific experience of having to deal with DCYF in Nashua, NH for a little more than two year's. My two daughter's children were taken fraudelently and I was not allowed custody due to false allegation's made my the DCYF attorney, which were proven false in court.
In Nashua, service's are NOT rendered to parent's before the child is taken. They are immediately placed in foster care, even though the real parent object's to the placement. Relative's are not given the option of placement.
I have just finished foster care classes in Nashua, though I do not agree with the teaching's and was totally disgusted by what I heard coming out of the mouth's of the foster care worker's and their teacher's. It was all I could do to sit there and listen to the lie's.
The potential foster parent's were told a child is never taken before service's are provided. Not true. They were told DCYF searche's for relative's before placing a child in foster care. Another lie. They were told the Judge very rarely listen's to DCYF. Another lie. We were told by a caseworker and a DCYF attorney that the Judge does anything DCYF want's. It's true, he does.
Parent's whose children were taken, are made out to be the scum of the earth, no if's and's or but's about it. If their child was taken, they either abused or neglected period. Nothing was mentioned about anyone being falsely accused. I guess those word's are not in their vocabulary. Parent's are so badly smeared, that the potential foster's can't figure out how these horrible parent's are even allowed visit's.
My daughter's were told from the start, that the foster couple's are told not to bond with the children as they may get to go home some day. Foster care class tell's you to bond.
These people are told in class, that they will never be told anything about the parent, because it's confidential. They will only be told about the child. Another lie. DCYF tell's the foster couple anything and everything about your entire family, truth or lie.
I was recently told by Probate court that I can not petition the court to adopt my granddaughter because she's in DCYF custody.
so I signed up for foster care classes. The thing's I heard made me sick, I just wanted to scream and walk out. Then I thought to myself, this is a way I can finally find out the dirt DCYF is feeding these people. So I'm passing on the dirt to you.
One day we will win this horrible fight against the American family and DCYF will get what they deserve.

I would not lie and go against my daughter's, so they say I'm in denial. Then they told me I was too emotional because I cried for my grandchildren. Then I set up a picket with other grandparent's and parent's whose children were taken, for grandparent's right's. I have also submitted ton's of letter's to Newspaper's, which were printed. Every one of them is in my daughter's files.I've written to the Governor, the DHHS Commissioner, President Bush, State Senator's, State Rep's,The NH Attorney General, the U.S. Attorney General amongst ton's of other people. including the Head Judge for District Court and the Head Judge for Probate Court, not counting all the motion's I've filed for custody and motion's to intervene.
I told them my I Will have my grandchildren before I die. I and my family will never give up.
I was very nice to the Supervisor and the Foster care worker. The Foster care worker smiled as we talked. The Supervisor looked as if someone else sent her to do their dirty work. She looked nervous. I told them I had nothing against either one of them, as they weren't the one's who slandered my family from day one. I also told the Foster care worker that I did not agree with everything they were telling the class, but I kept my mouth shut and just listened. She thanked me for that and told me I should have talked to her before the first class and let her know what was going on. She was nice. But we know about nice. Wolve's in sheep's clothing.
I didn't get mad, I didn't yell. I was very calm. I saw my daughter's caseworker and she saw me. We didn't speak. I know the trick's she played on my daughter to keep her baby. She was clearly working all along for the foster couple to adopt her. Several witnesses overheard her at the courthouse telling the foster couple,"Don't worry there's no guarantee C****'s going anywhere," after she lied to the Judge to stop C***** from going into a court-ordered program. As I was leaving, I told them to have a nice day.
C***** file a complaint with the NH Attorney General against DCYF, her court-appointed puppet, the hospital and the health clinic. The A.G. wrote back and said she has no jurisdiction over any of them. She's a liar! So C***** sent out more complaint's. She is trying to file a federal lawsuit on her own. We don't have the money for a Lawyer. I know if we did, the kid's would be returned.

I received a phone call on Friday from the DCYF Supervisor in Nashua. She asked me to meet with her this morning along with one of the foster care worker's from class.
ReplyDeleteI met with them and was quite cordial to the both of them. The minute I sat down, the Supervisor told me the Nashua office would not be able to license me as a foster parent as I have been uncooperative with DCYF. I asked if I could get that in writing. She told me I could only if I proceeded to trying to get it in Nashua. I told her how could I be cooperative at all when all they have done is treat my family like dirt and slander us. I told her I knew they would try and stop me and also told her DCYF office's in other town's told me not to even bother going to classes through Nashua, as they knew the way I and my family were treated by them.
I told the Supervisor a few fact's about my daughter's case's in which she may have been unaware of, all the illegality's and trick's played on my family by their so-called caseworker's.
I also told her my daughter's right's were terminated because she didn't file an appeal. I asked her, "Who's the Lawyer? Not my daughter. With any luck he'll be disbarred and so will your DCYF Lawyer who slandered my family in court with lie's, that were proven to be lie's." I also told her I would'nt even try to get a license through their office as I get along with everybody, except liar's, which her office is full of.
So of course, I have been discriminated against by the worst DCYF office in America. No surprise!
I would love to talk to unhappy grammy! Please email me at blkmack383@aol.com Dcyf are nothing but snakes and care only of them selfs! I am a foster parent and I am amazed on how they treated the biological parenta and myself on a recent case not to mention the kids being moved and not taken care of! They need to be held acountable for thete actions!!
ReplyDeleteDear Unhappy Grandma, Expect nothing less than lies and bull from Nashua DCYF they are the biggest snakes on the earth, I also have a terrible case with them and will not quit till the supervisors and lawyers in that office are fired! They are in the habit of taking bribes for foster kids especially if the are asst district attorneys, they will lie to families to please them self I am looking for someone to take this to Washington!!
ReplyDeleteIt is so ironic that you are fighting to obtain custody of your grandchildren and they won't let you, and yet my kids were taken away from I and my husband under false accusations made my husband's
ReplyDeletegrown daughters from a previous marriage. They have always wanted to wreck my marriage and had already
made a false accusation against us in 2006. Before this whole fiasco they had never even wanted to
be sisters to my sons. When my second son was born they did not even ask about him during his whole first year of life. Now my sons have been given to them, and are not even being taken care of appropriately. My sons are merely pawns in a personal vengeance, and DCYF ( who is aware of the true motives of my husband's daughters) is their willing accomplice.
The irony is that the excuse that they used in order to justify handing over my kids to them is that they are family, and yet you who are a loving grandmother have been denied custody. The situation is too complex to explain in a brief fashion. Check out my blog to read more. It sounds like something out of a movie but these things have really happened to us. I have read other horror stories in the Internet.
I applaud you for bringing to light these abuses.
My Blog (These things really do happen in the U.S.!)
I think the Nashua office needs to be cleaned out! They are nothing but bribe selling jerks! I hope anyone who is a foster parents is prepared for lots of headaches lies and bull! I will continue to encourage anyone who wants to become a foster parent in this state thinks twice about it. Nashua is full of loosers and liars! They think they are above the law and can treat people the way they want how would they feel if someone came into there house and took there kids. And why are they not investigated for there wrong doings? I heard one of the caseworkers in the nashua office has a child of her own because she slept with an accused parent! Where is the justice in that.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you are having success in your struggle.I left around a month ago a comment on your site, with a link to my blog. I am still
ReplyDeletetrying to recover my two sons who
on top of being traumatized by this whole experience have been falsely labeled with several disorders to boot. I want to increase awareness
of the injustice done to me and to others. I have made a site and I put in it a link to this your page. Can you please post this link and give it to others who may be in similar circumstances? I am trying to do more research, as a lot of the situations described in other sites have happened to me. Together in G-D's Name we can in a peaceable and just manner combat these abuses that are altogether becoming so common in our society.

ReplyDeleteMy two grandchildren were also legally kidnapped and I and my better half were arrested for kidnapping a dangerous crime against children. Both of my grandkids had been in our custody from the moment they were born in fact my daughter and I agreed before the were even born because my daughter was having how should I put this going F------ CRAZY and she knew she could not care for a child. True she should have prevented it but we all know how things like that go. When my granddaughter was born she was meth exposed so naturally CPS became involved, not a problem they
wanted us to do random drug testing two times a week, we went every day the clinic was open. They wanted us to do parenting classes, not a problem they quite coming with only 2 classes left. My granddaughter was placed by cps and they had my daughter sign power of attorney delegation of parental powers and I was going to adopt her however my daughter became pregnant again you would think she would figure out how that keeps happening after awhile. So I made the biggest mistake of my life I waited I figured I could just adopt them at the same time. WRONG It just so happened that one of the cps worker in our county happened to be the wife of the ex-county attorney where we live and my better half and this ex-county attorney had a legal battle for 3 or 4 years which caused by better half to be arrested in a little over 3 years 19 times and all 19 were dismissed but not until allot of time in jail and in court it got so bad at one point that my better half purchased a full page ad in the local paper against this county attorney 2 days before elections unfortunately he won. Then low and behold his wife is now a case specialist I use that word loosely and after my grandson was born and at the time of her scheduled c-section my daughters alcohol content was .09 and cps in a different town and county because we were moving or we thought had approved placement with me after I submitted to an on the spot drug test, I can't figure out why they keep wanting me to do these drug test, well they don't any more because would just go to the clinic or the probation department at random and tell them I was there for a drug test and then they would do one and charge it to CPS even they had not requested it. We live in a very small community so they have informed every if I come in I have to pay for it my self. Anyway this wife of the ex-county attorney finds out we have these children she hates my better half and she come to my home the day after we moved back in to our old trailer because the deal to buy the new one went sour and I had not even had a chance to set up but one crib and boxes were all over the house and she came took the kids for no reason she told me when I asked why she was taking them and she told me because she could. She never told us her name because if she would
