Oregon: Foster Parents Should Not Be Allowed To Adopt

An opinion editorial by Neal Feldman, long-time family rights activist, has been published in the Salem News. His letter concerns a recent case in which the final decision is to give the child to a grandparent in Mexico. The Oregon foster parents are fighting that decision in court.

Here’s Neal’s op-ed. Please leave a comment on what you read. The comment form is at the bottom of Neal’s article.

This is the same situation I am in, or should I say my family. Since day one my family has been trying to get custody. Except my situation is opposite, my family is well off and the foster parents get money from the state to support my children. My children are both seperated due to their ages. My youngest’s foster mother is single and does not have a job. My oldest she makes a living on fostering pre-teen/teenage girls, she does not want to adopt. DSS has made it very difficult for my family since day one. My attorney is helping my mother get them, her court date is on November 19th. She is very nervous and I would like everyone to wish my family luck. Since I lost the battle already, for a false allegation.

Florida also has another Elian 2 case presently.

Folks, it is all about the numerous jobs spun off from CPS.

From the vague, unconstitutional statutes—to the clueless cw’s.

I would like to see an economist comment on the Child Abuse industry in terms of useless, endless litigation.

Can we afford this waste of resources?

Parents—please avoid encounters with CPS and Family Courts. Do not give any credence to them by speaking to the clueless cw’s.

And let us not forget that there are many starving attorneys who feel CPS litigation is their ticket to an endless pot of gold.

Neal Feldman was part of the early protest movement against CPS when Newsgroups went online.

I understand his persistence v DHS may have resulted in a favorable outcome for him and his girls.

Let’s hope so.

No need to register to comment.

Read my 2 comments. Hope they will not censor my URL for the TV station in KY which broke an investigative report about CPS’ illegal conduct in KY.

Many caseworkers are filing and winning suits v. CPS in KY and their brazen conduct of stealing poor kids on order from families.

http://www.wlky.com/target32/14596226/detail.html

Linda, this should be your next front page.

Yes, stealing babies from poor famiies on order. The cw makes these charges in the video.

Not a disgruntled Mom. A former employee who is in hiding.

But one cw already won a 400K lawsuit v DHS in KY, based on their utter disregard of laws, morals, and ethics.

Must be those pretty babies….huh……

Stolen on order. Perhaps they even choose those with compatible eye color.

Hundreds of citizens have called WLKY to affirm the investigative reports charges.

Anyone in KY should.

Can anyone answer my question?

I have read TITLE 42 > CHAPTER 67 > SUBCHAPTER VI >§ 5119. Reporting child abuse crime information

“a) In general
(1) A State may have in effect procedures (established by State statute or regulation) that require qualified entities designated by the State to contact an authorized agency of the State to request a nationwide background check for the purpose of determining whether a provider has been convicted of a crime that bears upon the provider’s fitness to have responsibility for the safety and well-being of children, the elderly, or individuals with disabilities.”

The key words are “convicted of a crime”. The databases of child abusers that states are keeping have people listed who have not been convicted of a crime. And in Kentucky, there are many on the central registry that do not even know that their name is listed.

Is the law above still the current law which enacted child abuse registries in the states? Does anybody know?

In Kentucky a social worker and their supervisor can sign off and have your name put on the child abuser database.

In Oregon, relatives have “legal standing” for placement, but not for adoption.

http://www.childwelfare.gov/systemwide/laws_policies/state/index.cfm?event=stateStatutes.processSearch

In states where relatives have legal standing for adoption, federal funding may be a factor.

News releases on this case state that Oregon has previously placed a number of children for adoption in foreign countries, but it did not state whether all of these were relative placements. This raises a question about how much adoption agencies get paid for an American child placed in a foreign country.

Are American teenage girls and boys placed in foreign countries with non-relatives, after having their portraits posted on the internet by the states? If so, do these countries have adequate mechanisms for investigating prospective adoptive parents? Are foster care subsidies paid to foreign adoptive parents in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, or China? If so, how much are the subsidies worth in their currency?

How can foreign countries be considered safe environments while children in the U. S. are removed for such things as living in a motel or not having enough bedrooms? Who does the home studies for these adoptions - the U. S. or the foreign country?

The article seems to imply that foster parents have a lot of power. I think that would be hard to prove, since caseworkers do such a good job of falsification of records, and foster parents are not actually heard in court very much as far as I can tell.

The article states that the boy has dual citizenship by birth. This is a good point to consider. From what I can remember, this has not always been the case. I think in the recent past Mexico did not view dual citizenship in the same way as the U. S. The issue was pretty complicated if I remember correctly. It addressed citizenship for Mexicans married to U. S. citizens, spouses of Mexican citizens, children of Mexican citizens, citizenship status after leaving Mexico, citizenship status after returning to Mexico, etc. And it is different for each country - viewing it from both sides.

Does dual citizenship still hold after adoption? I learned recently that a child’s date of birth, place of birth, and social security # are changed at adoption. Can they change the “place of birth” to another country?

What if the boy is maltreated after being adopted? Will anything be done? Will we even know? Will the money keep flowing?

Comment by Janet — November 19, 2007 @ 10:43 pm

Neal is absolutely right on every point.
Our collective outrage to what DHS is doing to our families needs more exposure….why on earth does the state continue to use our tax money to take away our kids and grandkids as they continue to ask for “more resources” (money!) with one hand, while they use the other hand to keep bringing in more of our kids to the system that perpetuates the vicious cycle of child stealing?! Imagine that, kids equal cash in the eyes of the state. We all know that the state gets federal monies for each adoption, and unlimited $ for cases that are strung out for years while our kids and grandkids are bonding with the foster parents—all the while the state workers, “specialists,” court staff, and lawyers keep collecting paychecks at our expense!!
We need to get people like Neal, Alan Schwartz, Mary Callahan, and others to address the problems in a conference setting.

What needs to happen is a RALLY DAYS ON END in DC with a parent from every state in America representing all the parents of their home state and again to do this DAY after DAY..

someone needs to ORGANIZE THIS and this surely would get the MEDIAS ATTENTION…

right??

Comment by Angela Hawk — November 25, 2007 @ 11:04 pm

my 3 children are currently in fostercare due to false allegations made by convicted batterer ex. my oldest is austic and dad worked with cps to get him put in a home my 2cd is with dad the convicted criminal, and 3rd child from my current husband is in fostercare. Indiana cps takes a child away immediately and prolongs the reunifaction as long as possible so the kid stays in fostercare for the 15months required to get parental rights terminated. its seems to be a game for them.

Comment by elieen muro — November 30, 2007 @ 3:12 pm

Here is some information I wanted to pass on. There is an elected official that is calling for major reform of CPS. It’s about time. I’m not sure how I feel about the Oregon case. I’m facing complete false allegations. The current case worker didn’t even know what the allegations were. I had to make her read the police report. She’s been on the case for 10 months.

As for the Oregon case, if it is true that Grandma plans to let her son, the baby’s father, live with her while she has custody of her grandson, then CPS is in direct violation of their own policies and endangering the child. I don’t have an opinion on the adoption. But the child’s father is a convicted sex offender, child abuser and CPS should not allow an American citizen to be placed where they might be endangered.

Once the child is placed in Mexico, there is no going back to fix a bad situation.

I have included a link to a Senator who cares about CPS issues. She wants to hear from parents like us, Everyone should write her.

Hi all,
I don’t understand how cps can
get away with all their false allegations. I guess they would
be out of business if all their
cases where based on facts.
I guess their motivations are
strictly fiancial. We should all
pray that their conscious will
start bothering them. Good luck
with your cases. God bless you
all and Happy Holidays.

I just wanted to say that I feel that a rally would be a great idea. I think that we should do a rally. Because what CPS is doing to family’s is so messed up and they should not be able to get a way with it. It’s wrong….

I agree Foster parents should not be able to adopt, i was a single mother. my two daughters where wrongfully taken by DHS in 2002 in klamath falss, oregon , DHS kept them in foster care for 17 months then wronfully terminated my parental rights, after i had five attorneys and four appeals the Foster parents adopted them this June 2007. I havent seen my daughters in five years i miss my girls so much and will never give up hope on being with them again but i cant live with the hurt and pain that DHS has caused me and other families i would love to have a Rally if there is anyone who would help me, i would like to be heard we need to speak up it never to late.. dyanilove@yahoo.com

I do not beleive that foster parents should be allowed to adopt. This is a job as is babysitting. When we babysit for other people, we do not do so with the idea that we are going to find a way to steal these children from their parents. There seems to be a meat market aspect to the “industry” and I find it thoroughly disgusting. A bunch of people coveting that which is not theirs…

Comment by Lindalee — December 21, 2007 @ 12:13 pm

While I agree in the main part that foster parents should not be allowed to adopt children who have relatives available to care for the children, I disagree with the premise that foster parents should not be allowed to adopt at all.

Even foster parents can run afoul of DSHS. I know of one foster parent family that has adopted, several ’special needs’ children, and were set to adopt two others.

Unfortunately, one of the adopted children made a false allegation of abuse against the adoptive father, and the two children set to be adopted were removed and placed in another foster adopt family. DSHS did this in spite of the fact that the original foster family had a petition to adopt before the court.

These foster parents had over a decade of good work helping out children that no one else wanted to care for, and now they are being vilified by the very agency that used to hold them up as an example of good foster parents.

Comment by Ray — January 4, 2008 @ 1:01 pm

I cannot believe that I found this website. I am a foster parent who adopted two children. We certainly did not become foster parents to “steal” anyone’s children. We became foster parents because we love children and wanted to provide them with a stable and nurting home. We have had several children that have been able to return home and they always leave with our blessing. The two that we adopted could not be returned home and should not have been returned home due to a very physically abusive parent. They did not have any other family to take them and we ended up adopting them. How dare you say that Foster Parents should never be allowed to adopt. What would you say should have happened to these innocent kids? I understand that there may be cases that do not warrant termination of parental rights but that is not the foster parents fault. We love these two kids and thank every day that we have them….and we don’t get any money to do that.

Comment by A Loving Mom — February 16, 2008 @ 8:33 pm

The problem is lady, I loved, love my children too. Mother’s like me do not loose their children. But I did due to a very corrupt money market judicial system. It could very well be my children you have due to lies and you expect me to shed a tear for you. It is all I can do to remind myself to breathe every morning of everyday of my life since Mother’s Day, May 11, 2003. Foster Parent’s are only given the State side. Hmmmmm….Imagine that????

You can go to my website - www.stop-the-suffering.com - and you can tell me if Oregon adoption should take place. How many more speeches in front of Congress about selling off children for profit is it going to take? How many more innocent families must be destroyed. Oregon took 5, 176 children in 2007 for the THREAT OF HARM. No - not for abuse. For the threat.
Of the remaining children (over 6000 for a total greater than 12000), only 40% of them had ANY medical indication or admittance by the child (after a directed an inappropriate interview) of abuse. I am losing my grandson forever soon. My son, is about to lose 8 years of being a single father. Why? Because DHS screwed up - admitted to it - and THEN PROCEEDED TO COVER IT UP. Don’t believe - read the website. My son has not been found guilty of the allegations made.. my grandchild has been in temporary shelter with an abusive mom for 6 months - and now - they are going from having secretly terminated all of his parental rights, to forcing the mother into being allowed full custody. The absent mother - who abandoned her child 8 years ago - but is making $2k per month for taking him now.

Noone will help us. We’ve contact the AG, every rep and senator possible. We’ve sent letters to the media and press with no response. No one has gone onto the forums and offered to vote to support bringing my grandchild home because none of them have experienced this - and the list as reached several hundred people.

This system involves laundering children through the legal system, then selling them for profit. Read Senator Nancy Schaffer’s report, and the article on our website: child laundering - and see it for yourself. If there were not over half a million complaints across the country - fine - no problem. If there were not over 1 million dead children - fine, no problem. If there were not over 1 million abused, crying out, complaining and/or children in prison who went through foster after coming out of a ‘threat of harm,’ with NO abuse - then fine. Otherwise - WE need to join together. WE, the parents who have been put upon, must join in one voice. These separated efforts are not working. No one is listening. I beg you - ALL of you - let’s start this - child in the system or not - I want to start a march on a courtroom in Oregon so large (and every state of the union to follow - or DC itself), that our voices will be heard. I don’t care if we sleep on the front steps for a week - video cameras and news stations lined up. I also want a child offender registry list. The sex offender list is good for its purpose, then let’s put the cps workers who are doing this on a list too.
Please - my grandchild is hard enough, but when my son cannot take losing his child, and his soul dies - i lose him too. Two - is one two many.
Thank you.

Comment by Donna Davis — February 27, 2008 @ 3:43 pm

my name is terry wagar I’m e-mailing you because I’m at a loss as to what i can do about a very dangerous murder conspiracy against me and others, for over 2 and a half years I’ve suffered from this conspiracy, it began { as best as i can tell,} when my wife joan wagar started having a affair with a co-worker named eric carlson, there affair started around April of 2005, i had reason to believe they was trying to kill me back then but i wasnt sure at the time, I’m very very sure now! there is a very interesting fact about eric that joan tried to hide from me and my daughters, he is almost identical in appearance to me! my wife nicknamed him doubleclick, when i learned of my wifes affair i also learned of that nickname and asked joan “why do you call him doubleclick ” she said ” oh thats what everyone calls him at work,” ever since my wife joan insisted her affair was over, it never ended, year and a half all kinds of odd things was happening i started getting very sick from time to time, i suspected she was poisoning me but was not sure at the time, i am now! in early 2006 around Feb or mar i went to the hospital asking to be tested because my wife was talking in her sleep saying she was poisoning me, i went to OHSU and signed in, they informed me that its unlikely that they will find anything but they took my vitals and i waited in the lobby, i waited 4 and a half hours and they never called me back to be checked, and no officers came to question me about my concerns. so i went home, i could tell no one there cared. this is just too long to explain so i will try to get to the point, on march 26th of 2007 at 5;55 am i put a audio recorder in joans purse because i heard my wife whispering to someone in her bedroom, { i slept on the couch, our marriage was falling apart.} i heard what sounded like a guy whispering back, so i put my recorder in her purse expecting to finally catch joan in the act and laid down pretending to still be asleep, ten minutes later my wife left for work, what i caught on there was a lot more than i expected, i caught a murder conspiracy! i didn’t know it right away because the audio i got is like 17 hours long, when i heard on it she was with eric two days later i left her and moved in with my oldest daughter shawna, i spent the next week and a half on and off trying to listen to this audio, it didn’t take long to figure out i was being framed for something by my wife and her lover, and they had help! lots of help, i learned i was under INVESTIGATION BY THE FBI and these INVESTIGATORS were good friends with joan and eric and they all met up at our apartment that morning in joans bedroom, they climbed in through joans window, i learned they were there to frame me as a pedophile, eric was posing for pictures in kayles bedroom,{ our youngest daughter,} while the INVESTIGATOR named ERICA { last name unknown to me.} was taking pictures of him while kayle slept, after words eric climbed out joans window and waited for her in her car, and a john ray climbed in and helped joan put something on our computer and then he left the way he came, joan finished getting ready for work and picked up her purse and left for work, once outside joan was talking to these INVESTIGATORS and discussing what they was going to do next, joan and eric on the ride to work was discussing what they was going to say to other employees when they get there, joan mentioned to eric {you woke her up} referring to kayle, and then they discussed breaking into shawnas apartment with ERICA, after lots of listening to that audio i learned joan eric and erica planed to rape shawna and murder her and then frame me for this! they planed to use a signed check of mine to purchase a gun in my name, remember eric looks almost like me in appearance, eric was going to use my ID and one of my checks to purchase a gun, joan was instructed to collect my sperm, eric was going to rape and murder shawna, erica was going to plant my sperm on shawnas body along with other false evidence, joan and eric met up at walmart along with vickie {joans sister} and the investigators and was waiting at the front door for someone to let them in, other employees showed up and the investigators pretended to have caught me in the act, [ referring to eric in kayles room,} and saying they got me on fotogenic, once inside the investigators proceed to put on a phony show of investigating while in the presence of walmart employees while joan and eric and vickie are trashing my name to there fellow employees turning everyone there against me, joan was even addmeting eric has been impersonating me for other crimes, after hours and hours of the investigators claiming in walmart employees presence that i was doing wrong things and joan and eric telling countless lies about me the investigators gave permission to all of them to pedifie me, joan started printing out flyers about me at walmart,{ unknown to me whether they used them or not.} i learned they had me under a illegal video survealence the hole apartment had hidden cameras and the investigators asked there supervisor to take 6;30 off of joan because john ray broke in there, when i left joan and moved in to my daughters apartment about 3 or 4 days later the FBI took over the apartment above shawna and they proceeded to spread rumors in shawnas neiborhood, and was spying on us as well with hidden cameras, they didn’t know at that time that i knew they were up there, the ceiling in shawnas apartment has no insulation so i could hear them up there talking about editing my audio and discussing ways of killing me, i knew because they are members of authorities i couldn’t get help calling 911, not to mention i was very worried for my family’s safety i was afraid to tell shawna about this at this time for her own safety so i just continued to listen to the audio trying to learn as much about this as i could but for my own safety i pretended to not understand it well, about a week and a half after i left joan on April 7th donna { joans mother who also lives at shawnas apartment complex, } asked shawna if i could go to her apartment to fix her computer she said it wouldn’t work on the Internet, i didn’t want to but shawna insisted so i went over to Donna with shawna and tried to fix her computer, donna offered me a cup of coffee and i accepted, she brought me a cup of coffee and what looked like a mayonaze lid filled with sugar, i put 2 or 3 spoonfuls in my coffee and was sipping while working on her computer, finally i told donna i cant fix it and that maybe she should get a new computer, i drank up my coffee and me and shawna left to go back to shawnas apartment which isn’t far away, by the time i got to the stairs i started not feeling well, once inside i really started feeling very sick and needed to lie down, fifteen minutes later my head felt like there was acid eating away at me from the inside, not thinking clearly i called Joanne asking if she could take me to the hospital, during the drive there joan was looking at her rear view mirror a whole hell of a lot, which gave me the suspicion we were being followed, keep in mind neither joan nor those investigators knew yet that i knew about them, once at the hospital i was so fucked up and hurting in my head that i needed a wheelchair, once i was admitted and taken back to a emergency room i waited and waited and no doctor ever came and examed me, one person came in acting like a doctor but never examed me, he only wanted to put his finger in my ass supposed for a colon test of some sort, but he never asked me what was wrong, never examed my eyes or mouth or ears, never took my vitals, never took a urine sample, i was holding my head in severe pain and all he wanted was to put his finger in my ass, once done he left, a half hour later a male nurse brought me a bottle of something to drink saying i need to drink the whole bottle and then i was going to some room to have a kind of ex ray of some sort, never once did a doctor examine me nor did a doctor come in to explain what was going on, after i drank the bottle the nurse took me to a room for this ex ray then brought me back to my room, about a hour later a doctor came and explained that the only thing they could find wrong was there was a little bleeding in my colon and he recommended i follow up with a colanoscopie, needless to say i was totally shocked at his blatant attempt to ignore the fact that NOBODY EXAMED ME!!! i knew at this time that those investigators had somehow interfered with my medical treatment and done something to prevent a doctor from examine me! i went back to shawnas apartment still in pain in my head, it felt like acid burning in there, and to this day i am still in pain in my head over this, about a week after this i stopped pretending to know nothing about this crap with joan and the investigators and looked up at the ceiling where they were and called them a bunch of criminals and murderers and that i was completely discuss ted with them, shawna was home at this time but didn’t understand why i did that, an hour later shawna left for work and after that all hell broke loose up stairs, a whole lot of people in suits was going up there and there was some yelling and they seemed very angry, a lot of activity going on for the rest of that day in that apartment above shawnas place, at around 8 or 9 that nite several people went up there talking very loudly acting like they were looking at something and said very loudly { yep thats a pedophile alright.} and then him and a few others from that apartment ran out of there yelling at the top of there lungs through out the hole neaborhood calling me a pedophile, from this point on they was pedifieing me openly in shawnas neaborhood, just flat out calling me a pedophile to others in that neaborhood, this hole time i spent most of my time on the floor in pain from donna poisoning me, i flat out knew i could get no help calling 911 since these were people in authority doing this to me, they stopped doing this when shawna was around they didn’t want her to know about it, i told shawna about this but she didn’t believe me because she never witnessed any of it and no one at work mentioned this to her, she believed donna poisoned me but she never understood any of the other stuff, the investigators were quite until shawna left for work and was loud when she left, they would say things like { were going to FUCK you over now you son of a bitch!} i remained in the apartment for about a week after donna poisoned me unable to walk much because of the pain, around this time eric showed up downstairs talking very loudly up at the investigators, { the investigators were on the third floor on the patio and eric was on the ground talking up at them, shawnas app is in between them} and eric was loudly calling me a pedophile and giving my description to others who were out there trying to piss me off, i didn’t go out to confront him because i knew they wanted to shoot me, before he left he yelled up at the investigators telling them to make sure i drink my coffee, keep in mind they weren’t hiding any of there murder attempts from me, after all eric and joan had permission from the authorities to murder me so they just don’t give a shit, i have reason to believe the authorities pressed charges against me and gave my disscription on tv because where ever i go people seem to recognize me, people in shawnas old neaborhood would point over at me and say “there’s the guy they pedified.” ever since i have been under attack behind my back and in front of my face, i learned from that audio that they pedified me in prison so if i get arrested for anything i will likely be murdered in prison, after they poisoned me at some point they broke into shawnas app and replaced my audio with a differant version hoping i would think its the original, i didn’t fall for that,there version is nothing but a death threat against me and shawna and there demonstrating how they plan to frame my hole family and give them the blame for me being poisoned and pedofied, and at the end of it there flat out frameing me as a pedophile using my voice and kayles, although they made the mistake of admitting somewhere in the middle of the audio that there using kayles voice, on there replacement audio they threatened to pedofie shawna if i say something about this, well they already did that, what it amounts to is they tried to kill me and shawna, i caught them in the act , and then they threatened to kill us if i talk about it and then they tried to kill us again, so it does me no good to heed there threats, as far as I’m concerned they murdered me already and there in the process of murdering shawna right now, there have been too many attempts to tell them all on this, let me suffice it to say the other nite joan and a couple of her friends came here to murder me and that plan failed, but there not scared about it because they have some people in authority covering there asses, i write this on November 13th 2007 and at this very moment this apartment is under a illegal video survielence by the FBI, and they allow others over the Internet to spy on us and make fun of us, chances are there going to murder me for sending this because they made it clear there going to cover there asses, but thats why i saved the best for last.
p.s. the address where this ocured is 8800 se causey loop n-205 clackamas OR 97086, the whole neaberhood there has heard of this and the authorities used a warrant to kick out the tenants above shawnas apartment

Comment by terry — February 27, 2008 @ 5:57 pm

Wow, Wow, Wow. I can’t believe that all of you actually think the way you think! Morons!
I have been a foster parent for 2 years. Would I like to adopt one or two, sure if it goes that way. All of us are NOT bad people. My husband and I do this because there are alot of kids out there that need us. What about the drug exposed babies that are born everyday? All of you out there claiming of false accusations, how did the damn drug get in their system? By accident? I have seen the side effects of what birth mothers on drugs do to kids, and you know what? THEY DON’T DESERVE TO HAVE THEIR KIDS BACK!!!
Are there some bad foster parents out there, you bet and it’s sad.
But there are alot of us that do it strictly out of love for kids and for the fact that they shouldn’t have to live where there are cockroaches crawling on them, feces of animals and humans lying around on the floor, magets falling of the counters and not being feed for 3 days!
We take these kids in not knowing what kind of behavorial problems they have, learning disabilites, medical problems and God knows what else, but we do it because someone needs to love them and protect them because so many parents can’t. If that means they come up for adoption, then so be it!
