Child Protective Services uses children as hostages

Child Protective Services uses children as hostages

We have a government agency that treats American citizens like criminals.

Our city revenue gave Child Protective Services the power to make us take off from work at the drop of a dime, when I’m trying my best to support my family. During my 30-day deadline of home repair violations, this government agency threw the book at my family. Being on the People Working Cooperatively waiting list didn’t matter. Day 1 they charged me with child endangerment, but I only found out two weeks later that I’d been charged. So I can lose my job by not completing home repairs. This government agency forces me to do a “mental assessment” – how is this related to home repair?

How to Report Unfit Foster Parents

How to Report Unfit Foster Parents

Foster parents can be a blessing for neglected children. They provide the necessities and love for these children who would otherwise not have anyone there to do that for them. But with the many happy stories about foster care comes many unhappy stories about these homes, where children deal with large bouts of abuse from foster parents and other foster children in their houses and sometimes even abuse and neglect from the very people they were placed with to get away from abuse and neglect. It then becomes vital for that child's well-being to report unfit foster parents.
