A Course of Action

Hello Everyone,

I have been reading through here and I have been seeing more and more that Children's Services have been comming hanus acts to Parents. just recently 2 of my close friends had their child taken away from them and wrongfully accused of horrific acts. Upon loooking up way to help them I see more and more that Children's Services which was once designed to help those in Dire need have now abused their power to help. I have seen that in some cases children are becoming even more problematic because parents become too afraid to even touch their child in fear of what Children's Services will do. I for one will not let this continue. I will currently do what I can to help and fight for those who have wrongfully had their children taken from them. I am tired of seeing good people being torn aparat, wonderful happy families seperated and slowly falling to shambles because of someone making a phone call and pointing a finger. I bet if someone called up Children's Services and told them a false acusation they would be knocking at the door and tearing a nother family apart. If anyone has a Class Action Lawsuit in Pa Let me know so I can help a few families out there.

 

Sincerely,

Back in March of 2009 my wife and i received a phone call from her brother. We live in mifflin County, Pa and he lived in Blair county. He was living with friends with his girlfriend and their twins. Well it turned out that his friends got mad at him and kicked them out. They then called CYS and told them that they were homeless. CYS said he had to find somewhere for the twins to go or they would be placed in foster care. While this was going on the kids stayed at the friends house. Well my wife went up signed papers to take the kids and was told that it would be transfered to mifflin county and that they would contact us. They asked for help when they went to pick up the kids and it was refused. They said there would be no problems but when they arrived the cops had to be called. CYS put the kids right in the middle of danger. It is now August 2 and if i would not have called to see what is going on we never would have heared from them. When i called Mifflin County they said they never were cantacted by Blair County and that this was not the way they would handle the situation. They said since Blair opened the case they would handle it no matter where the kids are. But they checked into it anyway. They contacted Blair county and were told there was no record of a case. Later that day, not satsified with this, I called Blair County and spoke with a case worker. She said she would check into it and call me back. She did not return my call and i had to call again. She told me she was the one that handled the case but could not find any paperwork on it. They lost the paperwork. Now for the last five months these two children have been with me waiting on CYS so they could return to their parents. Being taking from your parents is defistating to any 2 year old. The parents visit regulary since the moved to mifflin county and have a stable home. The children could have moved back to them months ago. When my wifes brother and girlfriend leave my house at night the kids just go crazy, crying uncontrolably for sometimes as long as an hour and a half. They now wake up in the middle of the night with the same thing crying for mommy and daddy. This also wakes up my 2 kids (2 and 3 years old). I work construction and travel alot. Most of the time i have to leave by 4 in the morning and sometimes we are up trying to get kids back to bed all night. CYS is there to help kids but in this case they screwed up real bad and have these kids all messed up. On monday i have an appoitment with an attorney who says there is a huge case against Blair County Cys. When i asked the case worker how you can loose paperwork with something this important she said it just happens. She had nothing to say when i asked her if it had been a case of abuse and the child had been place with a family member and was told of a follow up and it never happened. And they just figured the case was droped and returned the child and the child was later killed. She knows she is in trouble and is scared for her job. As she should be because i will not quit untill i have it. One thing with CYS is that you can't let them push you around. They don't like attorneys like the one i have hired who is the attorney for another county CYS.
