Comments on: Case CLOSED! http://my.kidjacked.com/naiveinnocence/2009/09/23/case-closed/ A CPS story about a family torn apart from lies.

This is what forces parents to neglect kids. Neglect the kids needs for time and love and cuddling- stories read to them, time to fly kites and go outside. Instead parents are forced to scrub and clean and paint and wash in fear that CPS will take the kids. My house has barely been dirtier since they came, and every social check has been "Well, we are deeming your case undetermined..." which is complete BS. Think CPS can't take your kids because a sink full of dishes? Sure they can. It's all left up to the opinion of the agent. It's all up to the law's version of what shade of gray they want to enforce. Its all just plain wrong. And there is NO SPECIFIC documentation as far as what is considered unsanitary. Usually it means severe chance of harm, such as broken glass or things that might fall and kill a child- huge piles of garbage, etc. Trash bags in kid's rooms because we are cleaning does NOT show a living hazard. They even had to add "It's unacceptable to 'store' trash in your kid's rooms..." and I'm thinking, Are you NUTS?

Think CPS can’t take your kids because a sink full of dishes? Sure they can. It’s all left up to the opinion of the agent. It’s all up to the law’s version of what shade of gray they want to enforce. Its all just plain wrong. And there is NO SPECIFIC documentation as far as what is considered unsanitary. Usually it means severe chance of harm, such as broken glass or things that might fall and kill a child- huge piles of garbage, etc. Trash bags in kid’s rooms because we are cleaning does NOT show a living hazard.

They even had to add “It’s unacceptable to ’store’ trash in your kid’s rooms…” and I’m thinking, Are you NUTS?

I am so sorry for what hell you and your family were put through. There is no excuse. No excuse. It's been years and I still get panicked when my doorbell rings. And I have to add that your house in those pictures is much cleaner than MINE! I left a comment for you over at Legally Kidnapped on the Walmart post but I wasn’t sure that you’d see it.
