Send our babies home
4 Letters and Emails Sent So Far
my name is John Peters. I'm active duty Air Force, stationed here at Tinker AFB for the past 8 years. I am emailing you in matters concerning my battle with the DHS for the past 11 months. My wife Amy and I have 3 beautiful children, my daughter (2 1/2 years old and 1 year old twins (boy and girl.) In a nutshell sir, made a poor choice while intoxicated and accidentally caused minor bruises to my 2 month old son while feeding him in the middle of the night. I recently had surgery just days prior and was in terrible pain, plus I was intoxicated. There was no excuse for what happened, but I have completely changed my life because this. The kids had an appointment with their pediatrician the following day, where it was identified. The DHS took all 3 of our kids that same night back in February 2011.
We have still not got them back. We have completed the service plan without any hesitation and I even utilized the agencies on Tinker AFB in addition to what the DHS asked for. Our only family here is my wife Amy's sister, who is a 22 year old mother of 1. The DHS has a terrible impression of my wife Amy because of the bad relationship they two have with each other. The DHS thinks that my wife has mental issues due to the slander and false impressions that was giving to the DHS.
The DHS is proposing that in order for the kids to come home, they want me (who got us in the mess to begin with) to make the choice between my wife, or the kids.
Sir, they are pushing to terminate my wife's parental rights as we speak. They are asking me to divorce her in order to get my kids back home. We are being torn apart because the DHS reads only what is in reports and what they want to get from them. We love our children unconditional, Amy is the best mother God could ask for. We have fought tooth and nail to get them back home, we are even financially set back from paying attorney fees etc. Over $10,000 has been spent so far and we have nothing to show for it. We are reaching out now more than ever for help. We have exhausted all of our resources, but we feel this is an uphill battle against an entire army.
Our children are suffering the most. We are bonded with our children and everyday is torture for all five of us. My wife Amy is the one suffering the most. She is being attacked when she is not the one who should be. She stood by my side, forgave me, and stayed with me during the biggest mistake of my life. But now she is being targeted, it completely outrageous and appalling. We have come to God, I am 11 months sober and the bond we have as a married couple is stronger than ever. We have overcome a year of extreme stress and emotional torture.
