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 The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed.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

Are you a member of “No More Family InJustice” yet?

I received this email from Greg Smart of “No More Family InJustice”. He is working to build a nationwide organization for victims of CPS false accusations.

“No more Family InJustice” is a non-profit organization originating out of San Diego, CA. We currently have chapters formed in 5 states with contacts in 18 states.

In my experience thus far, the main reason nothing is getting done in this war against cps is because every new group is wanting to do things their way and the legal system sits back and laughs. I’ve watched groups fall apart because they could not agree on a plan of action. Because of this, children are being violated and families are being torn apart by cps in violation of the CAPTA and ASFA ACTS put in motion by the federal government.

“No more Family InJustice” is moving forward with our plans to build a single national organization to fight the CPS corruption. We would like to include every individual and group/organization dedicated to “the cause” Other organizations can choose to remain autonomous and still be part of our organization. Even other national organizations can join forces with us.

The first step in our business model is for us to build an accurate list of those wishing to be part of what will soon be the largest national organization dedicated exclusively to fighting cps corruption.

THOSE WISHING TO PARTICIPATE SHOULD EMAIL AT LEAST THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION TO cpsvictim@gmail.com
NAME
EMAIL ADDRESS
CITY, STATE
PHONE # (optional)

Organizations wishing to participate should send either a list of contact information as described above for all group members or a main contact for the group that will disseminate the information to all group members. We prefer a list of all members in an effort to centralize the database so down the road action items will be received by all without delay.

Information will never be shared or sold nor will it be used to send span, junk or off topic email.

As anyone who has gone through the horror of CPS will tell you, The only way to end the corruption of CPS is at the national level. This is a numbers game. Until we have the strength of “numbers” we do not have a voice. Lets all band together and make a real impact!

Heads Up! It is an Election Year!

Are your legislators doing anything to help reunite children with their rightful parents? Do your legislators care whether you’ve been unjustly accused? Are they working on your behalf to help the the wrongfully accused to be vindicated, and their children returned?

For most of us, the answer is Of Course Not!

There are a few good legislators out there who have indicated they care… Senator Nancy Schaefer of Georgia comes to mind. But most legislators aren’t doing a thing to help our cause and therefore we should be very interested in having them replaced with legislators who will help us.

Unfortunately most legislators are hopelessly brainwashed or blackmailed, or bribed. (The three B’s of public office.) For one reason or another they won’t lift a finger to change the really awful laws and regulations of this country like CAPTA and ASFA. (If you’re a CPS client and don’t know what those laws are, you should.)

So… I’m presenting to you a link to a fearless, brilliant, and concerned writer, Devvy, “The Dynamite Redhead”. Her article, published today, is The Case For Hanging Errant Public Officials.

Don’t worry - she’s not recommending a lynch mob. What she suggests is that we use our option to vote for ‘write in’ candidates that agree with our issues.

FAQ - Frequently Answered Questions

1. Will you help me?

This is the most frequently asked question I get - and I would love to help everyone individually - but the truth is, I just don’t have time. There are thousands, or perhaps millions, of people out there needing help because of social service injustice. I get a lot of desperate emails. The need is far more than one person, group, or website could possibly handle.

So I decided to do what I thought would reach the most people all at one time. I put this site on the Internet. Now hundreds of people daily come here to get information.

If you need help from me - this site is it. Sorry I can do no more. FightCPS isn’t an organization; it is only one person dedicated to the cause of family rights. But if you’re looking for someone to talk to, someone who understands and who might have some helpful ideas, try the message forum. It’s online, easy to register for, and free. The message boards are full of truly caring people - many of whom are going through CPS hell now and others who have been through it and want to help.

Please do not email me asking for help. I am unfortunately subject to human limitations and can’t get all my email answered. The email address is on the site for two reasons: (1) for requests to have information removed from the site, and (2) for people who have trouble getting registered for the message forums.

2. Linda, why do you think it’s okay for kids to be abused?

I actually have been asked this kind of question multiple times since I started this site. Though the site clearly says the information is here for people who have been falsely accused, there are always some who think that just because I am 100% totally against the existence of CPS, this means I want kids to be abused.

Nothing could be further from the truth. I do NOT want kids abused. In fact if I knew for certain that a child was being abused, I’d go to the authorities about it. By authorities, I mean qualified Law Enforcement Officers. I’d do that because child abuse is a CRIME, not something that we should take to a social service employee whose job is to destroy families, administer forced “service” plans, and turn children into legal-orphans.

Social service workers are funded and therefore motivated by federal funding streams that start when a child is taken from its natural family and placed in state custody. Law Enforcement isn’t funded that way (per child abduction) and therefore is more likely to be impartial and fair.

Whoever thinks we need the “give me your kids” socialists doesn’t seem to realize that TRUE child abuse is a crime and Law Enforcement should take care of it. CPS workers, on the other hand, have expanded the definition of ‘child abuse’ to mean almost any little thing they might cop an attitude about. The examples are too numerous to mention here. CPS has got to be one of the most subjective and abusive agencies in existence.

3. Why do you think CPS should be eliminated?

I believe CPS as it is - is a very dangerous socialist based agency bent on destroying American families in exchange for federal ‘funding streams’. Though some CPS workers may be altruistic when they start, the job tends to destroy them. It makes them jaded and callous - until they’re totally unfeeling toward the grief, desperation, and despair of people whose families they are destroying.

CPS agencies profit not only from child detentions, but also from terminations of parental rights and subsequent adoptions. The funding doesn’t encourage reuniting families though CPS agents are told that’s what their job is for. So long as the funding is mostly anti-family, the agency makes ruthless ogres out of what otherwise might have been nice people.

My opinion, and the opinion of many other advocates and activists, is that CAPTA should be repealed. I believe CPS should be abolished, and in its place another foster-care-only agency should be established to take care of the very few children who are truly in need and without any fit extended family members able or willing to take them in.

4. Should we take the children and run, or attack the CPS workers?

No. I don’t advocate illegal activities. If you respond to an investigation by doing something illegal, you’re likely to go to jail and then there’s no way to get your children back.

Life as a fugitive is really, really difficult. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. I believe it’s best to stand your ground and fight back using legal means - in a court of law if necessary.

My site is aimed at helping people learn enough about the law to be able to successfully fight off the child welfare agents using legal documents and strategies that will put parents in a stronger position when they go back to court.

5. Where should I start?

The most important parts of this site are:

a. The legal document library. I suggest you look over the samples and see if they fit your needs.

b. The “what to do” page. It’s just my opinion, but at the bottom of that page you’ll see lots of links to other people’s ideas on what to do. It’s good to get more than one opinion.

c. The message forum. It’s full of very dedicated, caring and knowledgeable people who may have good insight and perspective on what you’re going through.

d. Who Will Prepare Your Case? This explains how CPS works and what you need to do to fight them in court.

If you have a question that wasn’t answered here - you can go ahead and email me. Please do not include details about your case. Those would be better placed on the message forum so people who have motivation and time to address your specific case can take a look. Unfortunately that means CPS workers who visit this place will also see the details of your case. Some of these workers are here to try to help and give perspectives from the agency point of view. Please treat them with respect. However there are some that will rat on you if you’re posting here. If that’s a concern for you, please use a fake name to register and be discrete about your personal details.

If you post anything on my message board advocating violence or illegal activities you can expect that it may be deleted as soon as I see it. This is not allowed here no matter how frustrated and distressed you’ve become.

Believe me - I UNDERSTAND YOUR PAIN AND I CARE - and hope you’ll find ideas on this site that will help your families to be reunited as quickly as possible.


If you have any other questions you feel should be answered in this FAQ please post them in the Suggestions area of the message forum.
