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 The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed.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

Jim, Im sorry you have to go thru that. My world has been turned up side down because they are trying to take my kids from me because my wife has a mental problem filed an exparte and an order of protection where she lied. I don’t know what to do. I will pray for you my brother.
Comment by Miguel — February 2, 2009 @ 10:32 pm
I need prayer for my little foster child to be returned. He was taken from us. We had him since he was 2 weeks and now the case is going into termination and we were wanting to adopt him. They took him because we were working with the father. That was okay when they thought it would work for them, but when they found out that I would not testify against the father, they removed him. Pray for his return. I am the only mother he knows.
Comment by Dana Gilson — February 3, 2009 @ 10:20 pm
If you’re a Christian please pray for us. I live in a full house, which I wouldn’t recommend to anyone this early in a marriage. Move out, have a dual income, and live on macaroni and cheese.
Anyway, the other day we were having a hard time getting him to bed because we’ve pretty much lost our authority through not putting up a united front, through dealing with our own issues, and through being overridden by other household members. My husband was ticked off and was yelling at our son and according to what I heard looked about to whack or spank him. My sister, who subscribes to the mentality that butting in is the mark of a benevolent person and a good citizen, ripped him away and shut him in her room. She also threatened to call CPS and I don’t know whether she did or not. She wouldn’t answer. I didn’t get the chance to have a tactful conversation with her because my son seems to be going through a phase of thinking everything’s a joke and asked her straight out without figuring that this was a delicate situation and that it was his own butt I wanted to save. Meanwhile I’m going through post-traumatic stress and already have trouble in my once-great relationship with him. My husband and my sister feud on and off. My spiritual life is also a huge mess, so pray for that, too.
Comment by J — February 4, 2009 @ 4:42 pm
Please help my son get his children back. Cps workers keep changing their mind when and how they will get them back. Can you beleive a cps worker not telling the truth and stretching a lie. It has been since April 2008. They fell into a money problem asked for help back then.
NO reply. Pray they come home soon.

Comment by Deborah Crummie — February 5, 2009 @ 6:54 pm
Deborah, it is common for CPS workers to stretch the truth and lie. Every caseworker court report I’ve read contained major misrepresentations of fact. They are intent on winning their cases, and exaggerate… but I’ve only once heard of a caseworker getting into any trouble for it. Usually it seems the judges just don’t care. They stretch out the cases so they can reach the 18 month limit and then terminate parental rights. To win a case either have a great attorney or follow steps mentioned on this site and others to collect your own evidence and write your own legal documents. Make the court appointed attorney work for you… because too often they seem like they’re there just to usher parents through the process of being victimized.
Comment by LindaJoMartin — February 6, 2009 @ 5:49 am
I pray for the world as its going to rot..maybe we should all jump into a bubble and live there the rest of our life.or maybe we should just hand over our children to cs and get them back when they are 16 or 30 for that matter…it is my belief that they feel its much better as far as they(cs) are concerned for a child to be beaten to death or abused by a foster parent than live at home with life situations.after all ,it gives them a paycheck.

Please pray that the cps case will be closed soon. I have waited for the result of the administrative hearing for over 2 months (they are supposed to answer within 30-60 days… and nothing yet…)
Comment by Need a prayer — February 9, 2009 @ 9:38 am
Please pray for our family. We live in a small town in Iowa. The CPS politics is just horrible. We adopted 3 beautiful foster children October 2007. One of our children was diagnosed with severe behavior problems before adoption. In March of 2008, CPS has claimed we have been abusive to this child and WE ARE THE ONES WHO CAUSED ALL OF HER EMOTIONAL PROBLEMS. WE HAVE FOUGHT THIS CASE EVER SINCE. We have had our attorney, therapist, and remedial worker testify we have not been abusive and her emotional prblems were caused by the system. We go before the DHS appeals court on March 6, 2009. We need all the prayers to get them to hear the truth and how we have been bullied, harassed, and accused falsily.
Comment by Karen McNeill — February 9, 2009 @ 12:36 pm
I am a teacher in Tucson Arizona and have been dealing with a case involving a five year old child who was SEVERELY abused by his step father. The child was taken from his family in November and i have just gotten the news that the step father was offered five years PROBATION for this 7 felony count offense. I am outraged that this child is not receiving more justice and feel hopeless in the Arizona court system. Please pray that this child gets his day in court that he deserves and that i can be there to speak for him and make sure that this step father goes to JAIL. I am feeling very helpless and want justice for this poor boy. Please send prayers and any advice to how I could possibly help fight this so that the stepfather gets what he really deserves, JAIL. God Bless

Comment by glenda — February 15, 2009 @ 1:16 am
please pray for me &my children who were first separated from me in 2007 because i was homeless and didnt qualify for any services like welfare the department called this general neglect. and because i lied to get into a shelter so my child would not have to sleep on the streets in winter they questioned my mental status. i am fine i just wanted my baby to be away from skidrow. i finally got my children back in july of 2008 when i was taking meds,had a home for almost a year and attending school. however 6 days later my boyfriend threatened to kill me and beat me so bad imiscarried. i called a social worker so she could get my babies and i safe.he had never hurt them so i begged her for help before he could have the chance. she told me she would take the children temporary to keep them safe which i agrred with. but when i got to court i learned my children were placed up for adoption. i have never hurt my children and have dedicated my life to being a medical assistant just to provide for them. my court appointed attorney doesnt care and i cant afford a new one. the foster mother refuses to let me see my children even though i have a court order to and has been observed through my battered womans shelter saying how she was going to adopt my kids so why was i fighting . the court date april 27 is the big day i currently live in a battered womans shelter yet i am still maintaing my home in fontana and will graduate medical assisting school soon as well my classes domestic violence,parenting,life skills, safety seeking and a rehabilitive journal group please pray for my children that they will be returned to me.
Comment by jennifer s — February 15, 2009 @ 3:49 am
I have to apologize to EVERYONE that I have wrongfully judged people that claimed to be victims of CPS. I (shamefully) assumed that everyone was guilty, even if it was just on a small scale. As a woman, mother, and a Christian human being………..I am ashamed of that fact!!
I have been witness to some AWFUL lies & exaggerations by CPS and 2 members of State Adoptions. I also have seen things happen that I believed only happened in “movies of the week”.
Legislation is being used perversely. I have been denied my kinship rights. I am backed by State Adoptions for my nephew. I have NEVER received placement of my nephew even though I have asked for placement since he was detained! We live in the same state, but 12 hours away. He has been in foster care for over a year. NOW the foster parents are fighting ME! I am in disbelief. I am sad that we believe that America provides justice. Sadly, this is not always the case. We need reform, we need it now, we need to speak out and inform the general public.
I am going to continue to fight BUT we have lost a LOT of time with my 2 year old nephew and he has suffered. AS well as the rest of our family! There is a good chance that we won’t win, but we will FIGHT until there is nothing else to do!!!!
I wish everyone the best of luck!

Please pray for me and my family. I am now a single mother to 4 boys. I have 3 of the boys. The fourth one was taken from me by his father and his father made false allegations against me in order to keep him. I have not seen my baby in 2 months. I have an emergency custody hearing this week and could use your prayers. Please pray that I get my baby back and that this nightmare will end. Thank you.

Please pray for my grandchildren, Peyton (7) and Ethan (5) to be returned home. The court took parental rights but we are appealing this decision. This case has been going on for 4 years. If we don’t win the appeal they will be put up for adoption. My grandchildren have been placed in 5 different homes and have been put through hell by CPS. They are the only ones who ever abused them!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We need all the prayers we can get.
Comment by Patty — February 17, 2009 @ 1:45 pm
Our case, as well as countless other cases we are familiar with and that have closed after lengthy court cases—have the following in common:
Our nieces, nephews, and grandchildren have been effectively “snatched” by a very corrupt, money-hungry, child-hungry system called DHS/CPS that feeds off of innocent children by robbing families of their loved ones and handing those loved ones over to non-relatives or to parties who are in it for the money or for a need to have a child(ren).
The single prayer request we have is this—pray that those who have taken our innocent children will have their hearts softened in a supernatural way, to the point that they will return these children to the families who love them so much and would love these kids to know their relatives did NOT abandon them.
If those who have our kids insist on keeping our little ones and shut them off from relatives–at least, open a door where there is communication with no “conditions”—a door that is open and friendly, and not one that demonizes the bio families who simply want to be recognized as the child’s family that has ALWAYS been there. DHS told these foster parents/legal guardians otherwise, and filled their ears with the false assertion that we, the bio families, “didn’t care”. Nothing could be further from the truth.
We are not alcoholics, drug-addicts, emotionally troubled, or financially needy families. We are, indeed, family, and family that loves and cares for their kin—of every age—from the babies to the aged. We will never forget them, no matter how much the foster parent or guardian does to keep them away. These children are forever in our hearts. This, the foster parent or system, can never change.
Comment by Lana — February 17, 2009 @ 5:43 pm
Please pray for me. My 14 year old is in my sister’s care. My sister lied to her to cause her to resent me. She has helped to brainwash her so she can get custody of her. Now my daughter is claiming that her dad molested her. He has never touched her in any way inappropriately. Now DFACS wants to put her in foster care.
They claim I refused to go to counseling, but I was refused services by their appointed “counselor” ( a set up by them), so I am paying for my own counselor.
They are lying through the teeth, and my sister is helping them. My niece has also said that she intends to lie when we go to court on March 6th to keep me from getting her back.
Please give me all the prayers you can as I get ready to fight these corrupt liars.
Comment by Lynn Hufstetler — February 17, 2009 @ 8:50 pm
Lynn:
DFACS is in Georgia?
Georgia has an advocate. Google
“Georgia family rights”. Her name is Dorothy.
I do not recall if Linda has a Georgia attorney on this site, listed.
You need to join the Message Boards here.
Teens do NOT understand what they do when they toss out the *sex abuse* allegation.
Advice:
1. Do NOT go to a DFACS sponsored counselor.
2. Find your own person to speak to.
3. Pray for your daughter. She certainly is weak, probably has low self esteem, and may be facing other school problems.
4. Remember that CPS is now intruding into all strata of society, since they are reviled almost universally.
5. Often it is easier to intimidate good folk who still believe in * Government helping*.
6. Also CPS has created an entire industry for attorneys. Their definitions of *sexual abuse* could include a too close kiss.
7. Please join here. This list was started with good intentions and Linda has been an advocate for families for years.
8. Pray for your girl. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Best.

Wise words, indeed from you.
Make sure your kids know how to communicate by email. Every child, from 1st grade on should be taught how to get in touch with family by phone or email.
Everyone should take a DNA sample of their child and keep it on a Q-tip.
The US simply cannot afford to keep propping up the often * negligently indifferent* CPS institutions. We simply do not have enough cash.
Stranger foster care has been proven to be an utter failure. The MIT study in ‘07 confirmed what families have intuited all the time.
Comment by fern — February 18, 2009 @ 3:01 am
Kimberly:
Children are commodities. And are viewed and farmed as commodities by CPS.
Desirable children are worth mucho to CPS.
Often caseworkers obtain the * best picks.*
Frankly, the hardest to place children are relegated to resource families.
Judges in Georgia, police officers in Washington, case workers in Maine have all been through the legal system because of their having access to CPS children.
CHILDREN ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN GOLD.

Please pray for my two boys- Tristan and Daniel. They are being ripped away from me and I am being cut out of their lives by CPS. My children are being traumatized. I have been restrained from any contact with them since January 24. They have been under their control since April 2008.
Comment by Heidi — February 18, 2009 @ 11:59 am
Tiffonie and Heidi, I’ll be praying about both of your situations and for the children are in a web of CPS’s making. Build a network of trustworthy friends and family that would never betray you, and get the emotional support you need. “Stay tight” with your church families.
Record everything—every call, letter, etc. Make copies. What state(s) are you in?
Fern, great suggestions–thank you.

I need all the help I can get!! Three years ago DCS took my older kids because my oldest’s dad didn’t get her off the school bus and I had just left an abusive relationship with my middle childs dad. I was at work and they terminated my rights on both kids and placed them both with my middle kids parents where they are beated and neglected daily. Now I have a 18 month old and DCS took her and is trying to terminate my rights do to a “No Reasonable Effort Law” and they won’t give me a chance to show them anything, they just went straight into termination. Help me–I have a public pretender that isn’t helping me and I’m scared they are going to destroy her life too. Please someone help me!!!!!!!!!!!!

To the Berrys ( WA?)
There are at least 2 groups who are ACTIVE in WA.
Look on the Home Page for the Washington stories. Linda posted a story about 2 months ago.
You should also join the Message Forum here.
Also, contact you WA legislator “Pam Roach” She was the lawmaker who helped the Stuth (sp?) family in WA.
I will try to send you a link to the WA groups, if I can.
You are doing the right things. Have you contacted your own local legislator also?
Often times your local politico can point you to the way to resolve some of this nonsense from DSHS.
I am certain that the persons who answer the phones are FAMILIAR WITH DSHS ABUSES. Remember, DSHS is the most sued agency in WA.
God bless!

Comment by kelly queen — February 21, 2009 @ 6:07 pm
We need prayers please. I have 3 children who are 2, 3, and 4. They were taken away in May 2008 because they were dependant. My husband was in the hospital and I was arrested on false accusations and the kids were in my care. I had to go to jail and no one was able to stay with the kids so they placed them in temporary foster care. I got out the next day and went to court and they granted cps temporary custody. My charge was dropped but apparently that doesn’t matter to them at cps. We were given a case plan to complete and have completed everything. We had started home visits the end of last month and were seeing the kids at home 2 x a week. My kids so desperately want to be home with us and they don’t want to leave. They won’t let us put their coat or shoes on when it is time to leave and they cry. They have to carry them out without their shoes and coat on. Apparently the foster parents are reporting that the kids behavior is bad when they get back to the foster home. They are so happy and excited when they visit at home and upset and act out when they get back to the foster home. It is devastating to the kids and us. We were supposed to have a home visit yesterday with the children and the caseworker called 2 hours before and said there was not going to be a visit. That the kids behavior is too bad and they are acting out because when they come to our home they are tramatized because they remember bad things that happened at home before they were removed. They are saying that the kids act good when they visit home because they are afraid to act out and they act out at the foster home because they feel safe there. That does not make sense. My 4 and 3 year old girls are Autistic but cps won’t acknowledge that. My 3 year old was diagnosed with Autism before they were taken by the hospital that we took her to. Then once they took her away they took her to another hospital and the doctor there said she doesn’t have Autism but her behavior is due to environmental neglect. So now we are being accused of neglect and abuse but there is no proof and nothing has ever happened like that to the children. We are very loving parents to them and have always taken very good care of them. The doctor who said it was neglect has never talked to us or met us and has no idea what happened in the home. It is false accusations they are going by and now visitation has all of a sudden stopped. The plan was for the kids to come home next month and we were so excited and preparing for them to come home. Now they are saying they have to come up with a different plan because home visits are not working. I am so heartbroken. I cannot sleep and cannot stand to be home. I am shaking constantly and crying all the time. I miss my children so much and they want to be home. We have a parent mentor who was supervising the home visits and she said all visits were wonderful and she could see that the kids were happy and that they didn’t want to leave home. We had done so well with everything the caseworker said we were model parents and that we have proved how much we love our children. Now everything has changed and I don’t know why. The court appointed attourney won’t help and we are hurting for our children and the kids are hurting. The caseworker said that the parenting class teacher, parent mentor, guardian at litem, caseworker, and 2 supervisers had a meeting and decided to stop the visits. I don’t know what to do. I feel like I am going to have a nervous break down and cannot live without my children. We have never missed a visit or been late to one, have attended all necessary appts, finished our 16 week parenting classes, attended counseling, psych eval., we have a very clean 3 bedroom home with the kids rooms set up very nice, everything they need, I would think that it would be normal of any child to act out when they leave home when they desperately dont want to leave. They are saying this is typical behavior of children who have been abused and neglected, none of the children can talk and acting out is the only way they have to show their frustration. I am hurting so bad I don’t know what to do with myself. Please pray for my family. We live in Ohio and the system is so messed up. We need our children so we can be a family like it should be. I gave birth to those babies and they are keeping me from them and it hurts. We absolutely adore our children. How can we be accused of abuse and neglect out of no where with no proof after everything had gotten so close to getting the children home. I don’t feel like I can go on. I know I have to be strong for my children and I am but the pain and heartbreak is so difficult to deal with. Please someone out there keep me and my children in your thoughts and prayers. I empathize with everyone who is going through this. It is punishment and cruelty to treat us this way. We have all been punished so much. This is not fair to the innocent, precious children who so desperately want to be with their parents. Pease someone think of me. I am hurting so bad.

Hello all,
We have been fighting cps for 6 months now and they have broken the law the entire time. We were supposed to have a completed fact finding within 60 days from 82608 which would be 102408. Our fact finding is scheduled for Tuesday, 22409. I would appreciate as many prayers as we can get as our children have been abused ever since being taken unlawfully. The Lord has been with us but we need the kids back for their wellbeing. Also, a side note for anyone with special needs kids. Never let DCS or CPS or CASA get involved if your child has special mental needs. They will accuse you of things like munhausens by proxy, which I was accused of and their own psychological evaluator negated that possibility within 1 month of them taking the kids. Yet I still dont have them back.
Whatever kind of problems you are having in your marriage or divorce, try to avoid DCS at all costs (except of course your kids wellbeing, ie, if your ex is beating your kid, but be careful because if your ex is a good manipulator it doesnt matter what he does he will be perfect in their eyes). My ex is a drunk and drug addict with a protective order and charges against him for us. They still gave him my special needs son. Please pray for us and dont lose faith.
THank You and God Bless you all,
Kim Baldwin

Please help me pray for my baby, I lost him last june for a mistake I made trusting the wrong person to watch my son, she made false reports against me for her own personal gain because she lost her child a while back, out of jealousy and greed she had my son taken from me at six months, he is now 14 months and they have crucified me I made a mistake but there are children out there who seriously need help, but I seriously need my son. please pray for me to get him home where he belongs soon.

The CPS misunderstood my special needs child’s low weight recently out of surgery as neglect. She was taken from me and I cry every single day. I took care of her every need for 17 years. I can’t stand to live without her. I am even forbidden to have contact with her.
I adore my child and miss her so much! Please include us in your prayers, as I have all on the list. I know not what to do. My life feels destroyed! Living without my child is meaniless.

Please know I’ve read and prayed for you all. I’m going through a real betrayal by the folks who were supposed to help my son and I. I keep praying they’ll see the truth because I have been such a wonderful mom for 17 years.This is so wierd, you never know how terrible a system is until your victimized by it. I know God will look after all of our children.

On Feb, 1 2009 I left my husband who became violent with myself and our daughter. We were already involved with CPS due to past Domestic Violence and Substance abuse. I have been clean and sober for 6 months tomorrow and i did what i was supposed to and left him. They advised me not to call him but I did to discuss splitting the divorce finances. they then removed my daughter because of a phone call and an email saying i did not have her safety in mind. They have sisnce conducted a home study to try and place her with my mom but they say it could take months. I get to see 1 hour a week, she turned 1 on saturday. I didnt get to see her. She has had a extremely bad even bleeding sometimes diaper rash everytime I see her. Please help me get thru this. i feel like a dog on a leash, helpless and I have no control over anything. She’s my baby and my heart is broken and hurt.
