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 The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed.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

Oregon: Action Alert … Immediate Action Requested

Lana posted this in a comment… immediate action is requested from those of you who live in Oregon:

Before April 1st, this Wednesday, please send a brief email in support of Oregon’s HB 2897 which asks the House to give more consideration to relatives when placing children who are in foster care.

Of course, this encouragement of kinship care is stated in the DHS manual, but in actuality DHS hardly ever follows the policy.

Less than 3% of the time, DHS places a child with their kin in Oregon, among the lowest percentages in the country. This, despite the fact that relatives undergo the same background screening as that of foster parents, turn out to be record-free, and yet are eliminated by DHS for placement of their related children in foster care.

It’s too late for so many of Oregon’s families. Let’s make it so that families come first in Oregon, not last. Families count!!

Thank you, Lana, for this Action Alert!

California: Mother of Octuplets Fires Nurses Over Call to CPS

Nadya Suleman OctupletsNadya Suleman must have a lot going for herself, and her many children. She’s managed to buy a home and hire an attorney, and appear on the Dr. Phil Show where she was offered free nursing care by an organization that calls themselves “Angels in Waiting”.

Unfortunately these “Angels” appear to have a problem – with calling CPS. So far there have been two calls. First their attorney, Gloria Allred, called CPS because Suleman didn’t immediately respond to the “Angels in Waiting” offer of free nursing service. According to the article, Octuplets mom fires four nurses helping for free, Allred threatened “that Suleman’s children could end up in foster care if she didn’t have proper help.”

You KNOW what I think of this lawyer!

But then after the nursing service began, one of the nurses apparently called CPS because in her opinion, there were too many people at the Suleman house. I doubt there’s any laws about how many people are allowed in a house with babies, but this nurse must think her subjective opinion is gold and that Nadya should not have company. How unreasonable can you get?

Congratulations to Nadya Suleman, who took decisive action to get rid of the rat and her fellow “Angels in Waiting”. Nadya looks like a lovely person and her babies are precious — you can see them on the Nadya Suleman Family Website. You can learn more about her on Wikipedia: Nadya Suleman. I admire and respect what this young woman has done in deciding to have children on her own, and in finding ways to make this financially possible. I especially admire that, rather than cowering in fear, she tossed out the bad apples who thought calling CPS was an option.

Just as any American, Nadya has the right to raise her children as she sees fit.

Protest!

This protest march is against psychiatric abuse of children… but I would dearly love to see parents doing this outside juvenile courts and CPS offices. This protest march was at the the Augustus Hawkins Mental Health Center – I don’t know what state/city that’s in.

In case you want to visit that YouTube page and leave a comment, here’s the link:

California: CPS Workers With Criminal Records – Exposed in the Sacramento Bee

Back in 1989 when my infant daughter was taken out of the hospital by a CPS social worker, I was aware of at least one person in that department that had a criminal record. He had been convicted of vehicular manslaughter in the death of his wife while he was under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol, and spent a few years in prison. When they let him out he was hired by the county as a welfare caseworker, then promoted to be a CPS social worker. But back in 1989 there wasn’t much said about social workers with criminal records.

Times have changed!

This week the Sacramento Bee published an exposé about CPS caseworkers and social workers with criminal records. The convictions and arrests (with some cases pending) include drug possession, spousal abuse, gang membership, assault with a deadly weapon, and drunk driving. One CPS employee in Sacramento County is a registered sex offender. Last August one family service worker was arrested for stealing gasoline.

Fine people to be deciding which families to decimate!

FIRE THEM ALL… that’s the best thing that could happen!!!

As much as I don’t like the depression, I’m thrilled when I hear of CPS caseworkers losing their jobs. I want families to be safe again.

Thanks to tommixx for posting this link in the FightCPS Message Board Forum, and to ‘cps victim’ who sent it to me in email.

Arizona: More Than 150 CPS Caseworkers Sacked!

Have you seen Cheryl’s comment on the chat room thread? She says 159 Arizona CPS caseworkers are being laid off due to the economic downturn. Now caseworkers there will be limited to following up only on cases where children are truly being harmed. Hopefully all these trivial cases of discretionary, subjective family wrecking will end. I would love to see this happen in every state!

Please, counties and states, put me out of business… I would love to be able to close this site because it is no longer needed!
