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 The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed.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

  1. I am a grandmother with three little girls in fostercare. They all lived with me for a period of about 5 months but CPS found a way to trump up charges of inadequate supervision, even though my adult son and my 16 year old daughter were in the house with the girls at the time they said the girls were not supervised.
    It grieves me so to have to “visit” my granddaughters and watch them cry as the time comes to go back to the foster home.
    The three girls were placed together but the oldest one was naughty so they took her away to another home in another town.
    I want these girls back with their family, my daugthers and me. These girls have an entire family network of parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins, who all care about them. We are a loving family and none of the children in the family have ever been abused or misused in anyway.
    As much prayer as is possible will make a world of difference. I know GOD does not will that these girls be further harmed by the lies and deception of the caseworkers and their supervisers.
    Please pray for our family. Please pray for these little girls. Please pray for the “Service” that is doing the harm to innocent children and their loving families!!!

  2. I would like prayers for my only grandchildren. They were adopted to a NON-biological family in 2004. My grandson will be seventeen years old in November 2009. His sister was fourteen years old in July 2009.

    My grandson has been lied to so many times by the adoptive parents, DHS workers, Guardian ad Litem and ADA Suanne Carlson. He was told that his daddy NEVER wanted to see him again! He has been put through TWO sessions of Grief Therapy because of the lies he had been told. It’s such a shame that the main objective of DHS agents is to destroy the family so they can adopt another child. It’s because the DHS agency gets from $2,000 to $12,000 for each child they can find a way to adopt. If you read the Adoptions and Safe Families Act of 1997 and subsequent renewalls of the ASFA, you’ll see that DHS agencies, courts and lawyers get lots of money from the ASFA to find a way to adopt a child regardless of any accusations. I found one family whose children were adopted but the adoptive home couldn’t care for the children adequately. They were returned to the biological family for ANOTHER pouring out of money to adopt them TO the biological family. It’s obvious that it’s a racket that was brought about by the Clinton Administration and continued through the Bush Administration!

    Please pray that my grandson returns to my home sometime during this year and that I can find a way to tell him the truth … even if I have to set up appointments with a psychiatrist. He and his sister need to KNOW the truth and I want them to KNOW the truth!

I am terrified seeing as when i was seventeen i lost my first daugther. the false accusations made are that i was in rehab.I have never had a drug problem. Im unsure of what will take place tomorrow.

  4. Please pray for my frend. CPS is really trying to jam her up. i”m doing the best that I can as her friend and advocate, but it is so hard to watch someone you love and care about get screwed over by the system. This saddens me greatly, and I can’t tell you how many times i’ve wanted to break down and cry during this whole thing. I don’t, however, because I need to be strong for her. They’ve just denied her records to her, and she wrote a formal letter under the open record’s act. The CPS worker sent her a reply stating that her request was denied, and she gave the statute under which the records could be denied her. Now, I must research this because I can’t help but feel the CPS worker is lying. This case has really been a learning experience, and Linda, i want to thank you more than ever before–thanks so much for your site. When I’m done with the madness, I promise that I will write a few articles and contribute.

    Comment by Reina Brown — November 5, 2009 @ 3:22 pm




  5. Reina, please post that statute here – I’d like to look at it. (Thanks)

    Comment by LindaJoMartin — November 5, 2009 @ 4:07 pm




  6. Please pray for my children and my family. We need help getting these sicko’s out of our lives. During the last court hearing the caseworker testified to the fact that there is “no adjudicatory harm” yet my children are still “adjudicated” And now we have a new caseworker who we haven’t even met yet. Please pray for this to end for us, our next court hearing is in December, and the judge said if all went well our cases would be closed. Please pray that this be the case, and that the new caseworker doesn’t cause any more problems and harm to our family. In Jesus name please! I am praying that the CPS system be completely done away with, and that those who have been and are being harmed by them see justice!

    Comment by Diane — November 6, 2009 @ 7:41 am




  7. Linda,

    Here is a copy of my friend’s email. i left out my friend’s name, as I see that she has not gotten around to posting her story here; however, i have no qualms about putting the name of her social worker out there, since people should know, and her lawyer’s name will also be in the letter. Here is what was sent to my friend as follows:

    Your November 3, 2009, request for CPS/DCFS records under the Public Records Act, chapter RCW 42.56 is denied. Chapter 13.50 RCW provides the exclusive process for obtaining juvenile justice and care records.

    Because you are seeking records as a party in an ongoing dependency case, you must comply with the discovery rules and make the request through your attorney, Debbie Fong-Uribe. I understand that your attorney is already in the process of making that request. The Department is sending the file to Olympia so that the copying and redaction process can be started immediately. The Department will produce the redacted file directly to your attorney as soon as it is ready.

    Thank you,

    Hannah Palmquist
    Social Worker
    Family Voluntary Services

    Cc: Debbie Fong-Uribe, Attorney for Mother

    I’m hoping that you can find something wrong with this because I’d like to add just one more thing to the pile to jam this social worker up. i can’t help but feel like something isn’t right. It just does not sit with me at all. And my friend resides in Washington State, by the way.

    Thanks so much for your help.

    Comment by Reina Brown — November 6, 2009 @ 9:08 am




  8. (((Diane))) I do hope and pray that your case will close soon.

    Positive prayers for the ending of CPS will work. Prayer always has a strong beneficial effect.

    Comment by LindaJoMartin — November 6, 2009 @ 2:57 pm




  9. Reina, I disagree with their protocol to offer files only through an appointed attorney. Corrupt, corrupt, corrupt! They are going to hide things, no doubt. But I would wait and see what the attorney gets. Has Debbie agreed to request the file?

    Comment by LindaJoMartin — November 6, 2009 @ 3:11 pm




  10. As far as i know, the files are being requested. If nothing is done by MOnday, i’m going to help my friend write up the form to supena her records herself, as I saw that in the legal document library. I’m not sure about Debbie. I feel like i have some big beef with her. See the guestbook for the details…

    Comment by Reina Brown — November 6, 2009 @ 6:50 pm




  11. I have a cps case with my nine year old daughter. I am a recovering addict/alcoholic. I have been clean and sober since march 3,2008. My oldest son and his wife want to sever my rights and adopt. They are not speaking to me at this time. CPS says my case has taken too long and I am not stable enough to get her back. Please pray that whatever happens will be in my daughters best interests.

    Comment by teresa clark — November 7, 2009 @ 3:13 pm




  12. please pray for my 4 grandsons as they sleep in strange beds tonight seperated into 3 different homes. Taken from the ones who dearly love them, and given to strangers all because I foolishly ask for help. Two of my grandsons were in my custody i have been raising them for over 6 years. The other two were by another daughter her and her ex-husband had shared coustody. They were five and seven years old they began screaming and begging not to go to their fathers and started out making comments about the “nasty” things daddy was doing. This past feb. they began telling us horrifing things that their daddy and stepmother were doing. I called the child abuse hotline I didn’t know what else to do. They talked to the children at school and said they felt there was something going on so they had us to take them to the child advocacy center to talk to a forensic psycologist. She said the 5 year old had discribed things about his what his father had done but the 7 year old ( who is mildly austic) did not colaborate the story. Then the CAC worker called and said she had spoken to dad and he denied it so she close the case as unsubstantiated.By june the 5 year old was begining to act out badly. Cursing and talking constantly about sex. Then he started to fight the other kids and and make inappropriate gestures to them. He even exposed himself to the lady at church.When ever we would ask him why he was doing these things he would say that his father told him to– that he could do what he wanted and if we spanked him his father would press charges.We put him into counsiling but the therapist said she could not ask him questions, that she had to wait for him to tell her and that sometimes it took years.Everyone I asked told me to document it, document it, document it. I was told the best way was too video tape it and give it to Dhs then they would have to listen.PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS . I video taped the things he was saying and doing and how he would randomly without warning hit the other kids and say filthty things out of the blue. After fighting for a month to even get DHS to look at the video they came in and took ALL 4 boys and charged me with failure to protect. Now our lives are not our own and its is an ongoing nightmare.The said thing is that I took every dime I could muster and hired an attorney who waited 5 minutes before court to tell me I couldn’t fight it “after all you gave them the proff they needed when you handed them that video”. Now they are making me and my husband take parenting classes, anger management classes and psyc evals. My husband is 61 years old with many health problems including alzhiemers, congestive heart failure and diabetes. I don’t know if he can do these classes. Plus I have been calling them weekly to get them set up. We go back to court in January and I don’t know if we will be thru the classes or not since they still have not schedueled them. So please all the prayers possible , Gods help is the only hope we have .

  13. Please send your prayers out to my baby boy Darrius Maxwell Jamison DOB: 09-15-1999 (Simmons – adoptive name). I have no idea how his health is or even if he is still alive. He was ripped from my life by CPS and their corrupt counter agencies and I have never seen him again. He is autistic with severe brain damage from blunt head trauma from my ex-husband. His older brother Demitri and I miss him and weep for him daily. He was only two and a half years old when he was attacked and Demitri was not yet four and witnessed the abuse. Demitri is still able to describe the blood spattered on the wall while his father beat him relentlessly.
    I have little faith left in me in the spiritual sense but I do believe in the power of prayer. Please. He was just a baby. The only justice for my sweet angel baby would be the death of the abuser but we know that won’t happen. My Darrius was born in Troy, NY at St. Mary’s Hospital. I am putting this information here just in case anyone reading this is an investigator or knows one so that I can know firsthand that my child is alive and healthy. I would love just to see him but that also is not going to happen. New York has made all of these rules so that I will never have access to my boy again. The only hope I have is when he turns eighteen years of age, I can attempt to make contact with him then. If anyone knows the feeling of loss in this manor, please send any loving prayers out to him. Let him know that his mother will never stop loving him; wanting him. He is gone but I will never stop feeling him with me.

    Thank you for your time.

  17. I am a former foster parent. I am asking for prayer for one of my former fosterchildren who has has her two children taken away by CPS almost a year ago. They were taken away because they discovered that she had lied about having cancer. Since then they have made all sorts of false accuations ( I know because I have been very close to this family) and she hasn’t been even allowed to speak to her children in months. The children want to see her but they won’t allow them to. They have Ministry funded councilors “Mary Manning Center” that a few years back were almost closed because of lack of funding (you do the math) making accusations of sexual and physical abuse (although the police have found no grounds and have closed thier investigation). I have friends on the inside of the ministry still and they say it’s like a cult atmosphere there, everybody towing the party line and everyone afraid of losing thier jobs. Please pray for justice and for this beautiful little family that wants to be together to be together again. The mom has had counciling over the lying issue and has had very good reports that the Ministry is ignoring and are not willing to fund further counciling to help her. She has done all they have asked and more but will not admit to the abuse she is accused of so they are trying to get custody and adopt out the children. Please pray

  18. A family friend was just visited by CPS because someone reported a comment made on Facebook note in regards to the normal frustrations of parenting made by the mother as child abuse.

    The CPS worker who visited them accused them of all sorts of character flaws that she assumed in her brief visit.

    Their son has allergies which have been diagnosed and are being treated. I fear that CPS in their willfull ignorance and deviousness may force them to take medical action that is not necessary.

    Please pray that the CPS will gain some common sense and see how ludicrous their actions are! Pray this dear family will be protected and vindicated and the CPS agent who dared insult this family in their own home would see the error of her ways and perhaps find a new line of work.

    Thank you.

  19. I have court on December 11, 2009 and CPS is doing everything in their power to keep my son from even visiting with me. They have brain washed him and has him afraid of me now. We have been in the system since 8/08 and I finally hired a real attorney after firing 3 court appointed ones who were like the prosecution–against me (it seems like). I have jumped through every hoop and then some, but they still play with me like it actually gets them off. My lawyer told me that this would never have happened if I would have hired hi, right from the begining. I have paid $6,000 for him and we only went to 2 hearings with little progress, but thats because we had to undue all the damage from the court appointed attorneys. I pray for an end on Dec. 11th, but I have only had 4 visits with my 9 yr. old son since August. Before Aug, the last time I seen him was April. Please pray for my family…

  20. Please pray, my case is worse than I thought….Cps case worker falsly accused me, its been said I have been sexually abusing my son. Hes 6 months old. Pray that my temper not get the best of me and I be able to speak from my heart and God give me the wit and tools to fight CPS.

    Comment by Marianne — November 14, 2009 @ 11:06 am




  21. I sincerely ask for all prayers as I have fallen victim to false allegations of improperly touching my six year old son.

    I don’t know how this came about but can only speculate parental alienation and or munhausen syndrome by proxy.

    He lives with his mother and it became quite evident to me months ago that she was beginning to alienate him from me.

    I would buy him toys and she would place them in a closet and buy similar yet bigger and better. I would phone him and he would make statements to his mother such as “what do you want me to do mommy hang up on him?” and the like. She literally took ownership of our son somehow.

    We were always very close however a few months ago I started noticing that when I would go to pick him up for weekend visits he started being hesitant to leave with me. As soon as we would depart his mothers house everything seemed fine and on most weekends he did not even want to go home. He always wanted me to stay and visit when I did take him home.

    It just kept getting worse and he became more hesitant to leave his mothers each weekend I would go to pick him up.

    The next thing you know CPS and the police are knocking at my door with allegations that I would NEVER had expected in my entire life! They said my very own son had made allegations against me. The only thing I am guilty of is loving him very dearly.

    I am very concerned, confused, overwhelmed and saddened as he is living with the true perpetrator of all this.

    I am totally devastated and could now possibly face criminal prosecution for something that NEVER happened.

    All prayers needed and appreciated.

    Comment by Ray — November 14, 2009 @ 8:52 pm




  22. ^^
    I would like to add that my sons mother is being coddled by CPS which in turn is even aiding her in this travesty of further alienation of my son from me.

    CPS does not seem to care or have the vision to see what is actually happening in many cases as we are often only another feather in their hats.

    Good lord I pray for all parents and children who have fallen victim to this ill conceived child protection service!

    Comment by Ray — November 14, 2009 @ 9:24 pm




  23. Please pray for my daughter and granddaughter. My daughter will have her parental rights taking away soon. she has gone through 3 attoneys and no one will listen to what she had to say. No one has listen to our side of the family. We have made request to spead with a court appt. gal, social worker, etc and no one will speak with us. My daughter has made mistakes,but should not have her paretal rights taking away. In the last 3 years she has turned her life around and has been fighting ever since to talk to her daughter who now has turned 11.

    She has been denied phone calls, cannot send any gifts, request for school pictures has been ingnored, she is not inform as to how her daughter is doing in school etc.

    My granddaughters extended family, aunts, uncles, cousins, greatgrandmother, grandpartens have been denied any contact what soever.
    for 3years. Now it is in the hand of superior court and my daughter will soon lose all parental rights.

    This a a case of parental Alientaion!
    by the stepmom and father. If anyone knows of a good parental aliientaion attoney in New London Ct. please let me know! We need prayers!!!

    Comment by Carol — November 15, 2009 @ 6:07 am




  24. Carol, to be “heard” in court your daughter needs to write a declaration telling things from her point of view. You can find a sample declaration in the legal document library of this website. She needs to type it up and then give it to her attorney before court. She may also need to write “Objections and Corrections to the Report of the Social Worker” – also in my legal document library here.

  25. I love you Westin!!!!! Right now I know you dont understand whats happening but mommy loves you! And its tearing me apart too to be missing the most crutial time of your life. You are my angel and my soul. Come home Baby – Im empty without you……..
