Child Protective Services laws and agencies are abusive to families and children. This site provides support and information to parents falsely accused of child abuse by Child Protective Services.
FightCPS does not advocate or condone violence or illiegal activities of any kind.
FightCPS is intended to help people learn enough about the law to be able to successfully defend themselves and their families against false accusations using legal documents and strategies that put parents in a stronger position when they go back to court.
For more information, see the FAQ.
Child Protective Services, CPS, has devastated and destroyed hundreds of thousands of families in America during the last thirty years leaving a trail of broken hearts, broken dreams, and shattered childhoods.
Rather than helping families, government agents have used unconstitutional laws in Juvenile Court to rip children away from their loving parents, break asunder God-given, natural, parent-child bonds, and adopt the children of the grieving out to others who profit financially with large monthly adoption subsidy payments.
Child Protective Services must be stopped! The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed. We must work tirelessly to inform the public of this very dangerous travesty of justice. We must keep faith knowing that if there is a God, there is an answer and a way to end this heartache.
Child Protective Services Agents - please come to your senses! Family destruction on false or trivial grounds is wrong, reprehensible, and inhumane.
Fosterers - be aware that for the money you get you are holding much-loved children away from their grieving families while the parents are forced to perform a service plan that is anything but a service to them. I call this hostage holding for the government. This is not kindness - to help misguided government agents destroy family relationships and break loving bonds.
CPS workers and fosterers - I ask that you now let the children of the innocent return to their homes where they are truly valued, adored, and loved by the parents God gave them.
Family rights are God-given rights. And they should not be ignored or postponed. Every moment these loving parents and children spend separated from one another is a torment beyond what anyone should ever have to bear.
It is unworthy of human dignity to allow this terrorism and torture of families to go on without saying something, speaking out, and trying to make a change.
Site mission: To provide information and support for families attacked by Child Protective Services and child welfare agents, especially those families facing false or trivial accusations of child abuse or neglect; and for researchers working to protect natural family rights.

Fighting Child Protective Services False Accusations
April 30, 2007
Two Texas toddlers have been placed in a fosterincarceration home for smoking pot. Their mother stands accused of falling asleep on the job. While asleep, two teenagers shared their stash with the toddlers, so the mom is not allowed to take care of her own kids.
If this is the only reason CPS is keeping those babies from their mother, it is a travesty. Why not just tell her the teenagers abused her kids, and warn her to keep the kids safe from the immature pot smoking teens? Why rip the babies from their mother?
Of course, I don’t know the people involved. All I know is what was written in a very short article, linked below. Most parents would respond positively toward a stiff warning; no need to tear the family apart and traumatize the kids. The mother didn’t give them the pot. Why blame her? Probably at least 90% of parents rely on teen babysitters at some time or another. So she chose the wrong one. What kind of crime is that?

I am sorry but yes the kids should have been taken away for a short period of time. Very rarley do I ever agree with CPS however, you don’t sleep in the middle of the day if you have a toddler. You also don’t leave the toddler in the hands of teenagers. I think even a 15 year old is far to young to be watching a small child. I would never leave my daughter running around the house while I was asleep or leave her with imature teens. Just won’t happen! I do agree that they should be given back to her if everything else in her life was stable. “Sleeping on the job” is neglect. That is why children are accidently drownd, lost outside, houses get caought on fire, poisoned, or killed in other ways because momy or the sitter were napping. Unexceptable!!!! Everyone makes mistakes, everyone has to learn but we don’t know the specifics of what else CPS may have found when they investigated. NO I am not defending CPS but I also will not defend a mother puting her child in harms way!

What planet do you live on? 12y/olds are allowed to baby-sit for money in most states. Mommies with toddlers are tired..they work hard..& I see nothing wrong with taking a nap & leaving them in the hands of 2 teenagers..unless she knew they had pot…then yes, that would be neglect/potential abuse. CPS needs to take a step back & let parents be parents. They should monitor parents in question instead of jumping right on the snatchin’ wagon.
Most parents want what’s best for their children..not all are great or even good parents for that matter, but if they have problems, why can’t the state help them instead of taking over?
I mean..isn’t that what good parents are expected to do?

thats bullshit its not the moms fault the teenagers are careless idiots.
what gives someone the right to steal your children from you? the kids that are being ripped away from their parents dont know the “reason” why they arent at home w/their familys. the children are the ones who suffer. forever these children that were kidnapped from loving homes by people that are suppost to protect them will remember that horrible event in their young lives. and i dont believe children ever fully can recover from this type of trauma, im 25 and i can remember it like yesterday when i was taken from my parents and now my children too have that memory. i just hope that people realize that these children are our future and they are already mentally and emotionally damaged before they are even able to understand.

It is the responsibility of the parent to protect our children. It’s clear this mother didn’t do this. Teenagers may be old enough to babysit, but the mother new what these kids did when she fell asleep. How many children have to die at the hands of careless parents before you people learn.
GOD gives us children as a privilidge not a right. If you can’t earn this privilidge then the state must step in to protect them.
The role of Government is to protect its citizens, especiaaly those that can’t protect themselves.
If you want to sue CPS you need to stand back and think about the child instead of your own selfish desires. The state doesn’t enjoy stepping in, but it does what it has to for the needs of the children.

Despite the many comments about CPS abuses, I don’t think that many of us want to abolish CPS outright. We want to curb the abuses that seem to be nearly inherent in bureaucracies, which have an “urge” to grow, grow and grow. Somehow the incentives on supervisors and caseworkers to meet quotas, formal or not, of interviews, snatched children, and so on, must be eliminated.
It seems that governmental abuse of parents and children really got going with the establishment in 1912 of the federal “Children’s Bureau,” first national government office in the world which focused solely on the well-being of children and their mothers (notice – not fathers), now (1946) integrated into Social Security, and then into high gear with the 1974 CAPTA.
To a great degree this resulted from inept and disorganized efforts by states and localities. But has federal involvement not made it worse and not better?
