I think social services is a joke. These people get payed to take kids out fo there homes. Well dont get me wrong most kids need badly to be taken out of there abusive enviroments. But I got taken away from my mom because my dad made up a stupid lie. Social Services didnt do all they were soppuse to do and didnt talk to many people and see the true story. But I thank those assholes who ruined my life. Do you no how hard it is to grow up without a mom, because someone lied. Its the worst thing because there was no reason for it to happen. What do u think?

I think it varies greatly depending on where you are and who you get.

It's sad when they don't take the time to get to the heart of what's going on. Unfortunately, they also hear so many lies, that it's often very difficult to determine exactly what's going on. Fortunately, nowadays, there's better ways with technology to get to the bottom of issues if resources are used.

As for your case, hopefully, you can channel your feelings into something phenomenal as you get older. Writing, acting, creating, whatever!

Things usually happen for a reason. Search for the answer and keep looking forward.

I think that Social Servies should only be used in EXTREME circumstances. Like, both parents are strung out on drugs and the kids don't get anything. I do agree with you. SS gets calls way too much on false accusations but has to look up the problem by law. But I bet 1/2 the situations they get called on are a hoax or payback of some kind. I do know how hard it is, my mom abandoned me with my grandparents from the day I was born. It's very hard but all you can do is have hope, and make sure that when you get older, you give your kids that chance you never got.

ive never had to deal with social services until a couple of months ago.
my partner hasnt seen his last three kids in almost 10 years. the reason for that was because his ex would make things hard on the kids if they talked to him. she moved around a lot because she didnt want him to know where they were and tried her best to make sure that he didnt have any contact with them. he moved from michigan to missouri to get out of the situation.

my partner got a letter from michigan saying that his youngest daughter was in foster care due to drug abuse in the home, her stepfather punched her in the face, and that the daughter had run away from home with her boyfriend.

we went up there to go to court to try to get custody. then we find out that she has been raped by three of her mothers friends. on three different occasions. that her mother had been to parenting classes a couple of years ago. that the boyfriend that she ran away with had lived in their home for almost a year. that the reason that her mother made him move out was because she put the moves on the daughters boyfriend and he turned her down. that her mother was going through drug classes because she was so obviously stoned the first time she went to court.

in court, she had told the judge and whoever would listen that my partner was violent and she was in fear for her life.

the first time we went to court, the mother and stepdad had asked that she not be subjected to the random drug tests (she never had a clean one) and that they wanted the child abuse charges against the stepdad to be dropped.

the judge informed her that none of the medication that she said that she was taking contained thc and denied both the motion to dimiss the drug tests and the child abuse charges.

the second time, we learned that the mother had not bothered to show up for her visitations. that she had told the daughter that if she didnt come home that the mother was going to sell all her things. that basically the mother was not doing what she was supposed to be doing to get their daughter back.

we went through the in home inspection to make sure that our house was suitable for her to live in.

we are getting ready to go back up to michigan in a couple of weeks. need i mention that we dont have a lot of money and that each trip to michigan has cost us over $500. this is the third trip in three months.

and then we get told that the daughter will probably be going back to her mother and that we are the alternate in case things dont work out with her mother.

the foster parents talk to us and they have said different things that my partner didnt know. the mother is still having to have her visits in the social services office. nowhere else. with the caseworker watching.

we were invited out to the foster parents house so that we could spend some time with his daughter in a more comfortable place. they even sprang for pizza that night.

the foster parents have both said that when they were asked what they thought, they said that they thought that my partner and i were the more suitable home. the caseworker talks to us a lot.

we have been through most of the red tape. and we still dont have custody and may not get custody.

they want to send her back to the place that she was abused, neglected, drugs are still in the house.

is that wonderful or what?

i think that if they do have to step in and take a child from the home, i dont think that they should place a child back into that environment.
