Written by On Friday, May 2,2014 at 3:18 pm, I went to pick up my two older girls, ages 10 and 13 from middle school. A case worker from CPS was there holding my children, in the office. She never stated why I was there. I later read my paperwork and found allegations of “Neglect”. Neglect from what specifically was not ever clarified.
I figured I had nothing to hide so I told her some old story, of a domestic issue in 2006.
I was told that:
- We could no longer live in our home
- My children could not be around their father
- I could not be alone with my children and
- My mother has to be around the children at all times.
I never did violated those terms but because the caseworker found me with my children and my mother at our home, where we were told that we could not live, the caseworker claimed that I did indeed violate the terms.
If I did violate them then why didn’t she say so on that particular day.
The caseworker never stated that my children could not not return there with my mother and plus my husband was not there he was at work. My children were taken and separated.
(My son, 8 and is at a kids shelter, my daughter,10, is at group home all alone, and my 9 and 13 year old are together in foster care.
I did not violate. We just purchased a very nice home. How can I put my story “out there” where others can read it and offer me advice? My children are all depressed and I’m desperate PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
