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 The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed.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.

Washington State: Senator Pamela Roach under attack by a foster parent because she supports family rights

Have you noticed that Senator Pamela Roach of Washington state is using her blog to defend family rights? She’s posted multiple articles to expose Child Protective Services for the terrible family-destroying agency that it is.

THANK YOU Senator Roach!

Now she’s under attack by an angry foster parent. This foster adoptive woman (I can’t honestly call her a foster “parent”) exposed herself and her name by filing an ethics complaint against the senator.

Read the details at Senator Roach’s blog, and show your support… with a comment, if you feel moved to do so: The Pam Roach Report.

We need more legislators like this one who are willing to speak the truth about Child Protective Services.

  1. Just read the article in the Tacoma news tribune for October 14,2008…”.New sweeping law signed last week for foster children”. President Bush just signed this bill that will put the fight for children held by CPS even harder for parents to regain their children. I hope that Pam Roach can help with this one!!!

  2. Folks, California did the right thing and awarded a DAD a respectable settlement for never sending his daughter home to him when DHS captured her. ( Only took DHS 10 years)

    I believe the Dad was even paying child support. DHS KNEW WHERE HE RESIDED.

    His parenting style was never an issue.

    So you can prevail in some states.

  3. I believe we all need to read the blog Senator Roach is writing and leave her a comment. Not to tell our individual stories or to ask for her help but, to let her know how many parents are seperated from their children and are fighting against the tide for change to this corrupt government entity. To compliment her for the job she is doing for that little girl and her mother. I don’t think anyone really knows or cares how many are suffering because of CPS and the power and control that they have. Most just think if CPS is in your life then you must deserve it. That is so wrong and I believe Pam Roach is doing something now that will help all of us. She is one of the first in government who has paid attention to our plight and is doing something about it! God Bless you, Pam Roach!

  4. I know the suffering that is felt because I see it in my brother’s eye whenever I see him. He loves his children very much. CPS has decided to be judge, jury, and executor…not has happened to innocent until proven guilty. I have also been discriminated against by CPS. I have repeatedly ask for relative placement of my nephew and niece and haven’t been given a satifactory answer or haven’t been called at all. Incidently, I faxed a letter to Senator Roach. Even though she isnt my state Senator I pray she can help me get my babies.

  5. Linda: YOU ARE ENTITLED TO CONSIDERATION IN THE PLACEMENT OF YOUR KIN.

    It might serve you better if you made an appt with your State Senator.

    There are groups like:

    Washington families united, also.

    Sounds like you are doing all the right things. Please let this list know.

    Google DSHS and DSHS intranet.

    Best to you and your kin. F.

  6. i have been separated from my kids for almost a year now and the only reason they took them is because i was being abused by their father.i have done all court ordered classes and still no change with my visits or anything….cps is a joke they take kids who dont deserve it…within 3 weeks of my daughter being in foster care she was bit in the face by a dog and they think they are better there

  7. Linda (who sacrifices to run this website) we owe you a lot , even though we don’t know it , the justice and love are not two dimensional however , their energy doesn’t go from point A to B and back , its more like a surface of a sphere , you may not always see the results even though they maybe enormously important . That’s all I have to say ,in words,anyway .
    Jessica , there are several case laws (decisions by higher courts preferably ) stating that children witnessing domestic violence occurrence can not be used as a reason for their removal by itself .
    Last point - Linda , if possible ,maybe the listing of a blogger’s e-mail could be left to their discretion , so other people can contact them directly ,if needed , any poss. problems with that ? Milos Leubner

  8. Milos… I’m not technologically talented enough to change the way this blog works (re: email addresses) but you’re welcome to leave your email in your comment. Use this format: ‘name - at - site.com’ … otherwise spam bots can steal your email address for nefarious purposes.

    Linda - if the agency is denying you your kinship care rights perhaps a state administrative hearing or a letter to your legislator would help!

  9. Thanks Linda,
    Lets hope her fellow legislators will listen to her. Senator Nancy Schaffer of Georgia tried and it seems they turned their backs. However, she has not given up. We do need more, many, many more.

    There should be more like her.

  12. Linda…I need to talk to you immediately! I have been contacted by John Mc Cain regarding my grandson, who was wrongfully taken away 4 yrs. ago by DHS in Oklahoma City, OK at the Oklahoma Universtiy
    children’s Hospital. On Nov. 4th, next week there is to be a hearing to see if my grandson Kolby can be adopted by a Lesbian couple, when family has been trying to get him for the past year, since the sudden death of our daughter, on the 4th of July. Her heart gave out after fighting so hard for 3 years to get her precious baby boy home. Her rights were never terminated and she was to get him back, but DHS kept making her do more classes more counceling etc. etc, which you are well aware of how they work! This whole thing has been a horrific NIGHTMARE for everyone!! I believe my daughter’s heart just completely broke from having her baby taken away. They accused her of SBS when he didn’t have any of the symtoms except for a cephalhematoma which was months old, caused by being stuck in the birth canal for 17 hours, face up. My daughter had Pelvic Dysplasia where she couldn’t dilate past 2. She ended up with a C-section, with complications. The OU third year intern said, Kolby had a subdural hemataoma and put him in DHS custody. Six weeks later the hematoma was gone which we found out later after we got the baby’s medical records, but they still wouldn’t give him back. The court made my daughter sign a paper, saying that her baby was neglected and ordered her to take a Service Plan and they dropped the SBS charges. She really didn’t know what she was signing and her attorney, her fourth, sold her out and didn’t advise her properly. Anyways, I gave out this web site to a lot of people including several letters to John Mc Cain and Sarah Palin. They may try to contact you, I hope this is OK. Your site has given me the courage and strength to fight this battle to get our grandson back to family..My stepdaughter from a past relationship is trying to adopt Kolby. They live in Vista, Calif. They have been approved for adoption, after a grueling year of classes, home inspections etc. When we got a letter in the mail yesterday, from John Mc Cain, my husband and I were shocked, because we have been trying so hard for 4 yrs. to get our grandson back to his family. The more people who know what is really going on in this country, maybe, with God’s permission, we can change the system and STOP the KIDNAPPING of our children and the shattering of our families.
    Thank you so very much for being out here to help so many hurting people. My family wants to set up a foundation in my late daughter’s name called: the Tiffany Breanna Weitzel Foundation to help families who have been wrongfully accused and have had their children snatched from their loving arms.
    I now live in Aurora,Colorado with my husband, near our oldest daughter and her three little boys. Her husband is in the Air Force and is stationed here. Our daughter here was denied custody of her nephew, because she has 2 special needs little boys. The fostermom’s have wanted to adopt my grandson since day one and waged a personal attack against his mother, that ended up in her untimely death. The stress was just to much for her. She was going to colllege to be a nurse and had her own house all set up for her son to come home.
    It just makes me sick how the gov’t treats its own people.
    My home phone # is (720)524-6995, my cell is (720)382-6222. I really would like to hear from you, maybe just maybe, with the help of God, we can make a difference and Stop these atrosities!
    Take care and God Bless…

  13. Cynthia… I am reading messages tonight and am amazed at yours. I hope legislators like McCain and Palin will help change things for American parents. We’ve been persecuted far too long by bad child welfare legislation that gives incentives to counties that take children from their parents. Thanks so much for all you’ve done to help. I hope to hear that you’ll be able to rescue your grandson, and am so sorry about your daughter. Your family deserves good news now… not more devastation.

  17. I want to support this fight against CPS. My mind has faith that good, family and individual rights will prevail, and the evil powers from interferences and conspiracy from the government be stopped. Some places in this nation has been corrupted but there is still a chance for the restoration of good! I want to be involved as much as I can. This is also my research for my speech class. I will Spread the Word.

    Respectfully,
    Rose

  18. Has anyone checked this blog lately?Keep showing her support,the child in her blog is not well at all.She’s speaking of a rally too!

    Comment by Frankie — November 25, 2008 @ 5:45 pm




  19. This state senator is a true crusader. I agree that she needs support.

    Even if you are not in Washington State, this fine woman needs to know that there are thousands fo people (if not more) across the nation who understand the battle she is in and the support the cause she has undertaken.

  20. Lisa’s story airs tonight in Washington with Pam Roach speaking out for family rights!
