I just heard from an attorney who wrote this:

“The issue is this: by the time they call me, it’s too late, they signed the form. Once they sign the form, the case is over. If there was one thing I could tattoo onto every parent’s arm, it would be this: SIGN NOTHING WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY PRESENT.”

And to that, I’d add: Be sure the attorney is working in your best interest, and not for the county that seeks to oppress you.

If you sign a plea of any type in the juvenile court hearing, you’ll be giving up your right to a trial. Often the court appointed attorneys won’t tell you this. They don’t want a trial because it is a lot more work for the same amount of pay. The caseworkers don’t want a trial because they’d have to *prove* their case rather than just make allegations in their “social worker report” to the court.

If you’ve already made the mistake of signing a plea or stipulation in court, do everything you’re court ordered to do, plus write a declaration explaining your side of the case ***but, write nothing self-incriminatory*** and collect documentary evidence that you’ve completed the court-ordered services, and anything else that you can come up with that proves you’re a good parent. One single mother got ten children returned by the court after she showed the judge photographs of her home with beds ready for all the children. So, get busy on that evidence! You will need to share that with your attorney before court.

Here’s an attorney explaining how to organize case documentation. Organizing notes this way may be helpful to any attorney you consider hiring.

There’s nothing like having your family destroyed by bureaucrats to wake you up to the fact that there’s something terribly wrong with America, that there’s no real “liberty and justice for all,” and that much of the patriotism that was hard-boiled into us by public schools may be misplaced loyalty. I’m sure most of us love our country and still believe our Constitution was a great beginning for the USA, but now, after being victimized, traumatized, and stigmatized by the government we loved and trusted, do you still think America is the best nation in the world to live in?

I’m sure some will think that we’re still so lucky because we have “freedom of speech” … unless perhaps you’ve tried to tell a juvenile court judge your side of the story and been told to be quiet. When you’re not even allowed to defend yourself against government agents who lie, is there any real freedom of speech? Is there any justice left in this country?

I’d like to know your opinions.

As for me, my heart is broken. I thought I lived in a decent country but after twenty years of reading and listening to traumatized parents and children, after learning that children are being systematically poisoned with pharmaceuticals in foster care, after finding out all the dirty tricks social workers use to falsely accuse and persecute families, I can no longer believe that America is such a great place.

Our federal legislators don’t help change the laws. I hope every one of them is voted out of office save perhaps for Ron Paul, and I’m not sure about him. My trust has been shattered. Every one of those scoundrels that didn’t do a thing to help families harmed by CPS should be ousted. But I doubt it will happen. Most Americans are too fluoridated and dumbed down to even realize there’s a problem. If you tell them what’s wrong with this country, they’re instantly in a state of denial. They can’t deal with that information.

My heart aches severely for all the innocents in foreign countries that are being harmed by American soldiers overseas. The killings and maimings of children and other innocents in Afghanistan and Iraq weigh heavily on my heart. For many years people in Middle Eastern countries reviled and hated Americans. Now I’ve come to understand they were right. This country is horribly corrupt. I’m not sure if it is *hopelessly* corrupt but honestly, I don’t see much hope. I’m ashamed to be part of a country that kills children overseas. And that’s got me in a panic. I hope those people know that we’re not all in favor of these insane wars. Yet I know they must think we’re all responsible because we do so little to try to make them stop. Americans are so fluoridated, all they want to do is watch sitcoms on TV, go shopping for hot fashions, read about celebrities, and watch football games. Meanwhile our country now is into torture and child kidnapping under color of law.

So tell me – is the USA still the best country in the world?

Was it ever?
