    aAt Richland WA Cps Office, is destroying families and taking away children from parents that dont deserve it. During meetings from the CPS Childrens Administration Office they refused to speak or discuss the alegations, or purpose of taking the kids from FIT abd WELL ADJUSTED and LAW ABIDING citizens. Kidnapping.? I believe so. It's extremely hurtful and disgracful to see the people that are Supposed to help the most rather steal loved, cared and well treated kids. The courts also believes anything the CPS Case Worker or Investigator say, and always stop talking or refusing to talk when asked to take recordings & when they are speaking on the telephone to not record. Please take this into consideration how patient thousands of people that have been strictly told to follow heartbraking long based trials for no reason. I appreciate and thank you for reading this important and urgent message.

    My nieces and nephews were taken from grandparents house (where they live) because their dad was sexually abusing the girls. THE DAD HAS STILL NOT BEEN ARRESTED and they are saying even though the dad was kicked out, the grandparent's house isn't safe. The mom was living at a friend's and had not been living with her children for 5 months. Family wants these kids but CPS won't let the family have them. Social worker told us about their personal life and how they have insomnia, take anxiety medication and are only looking for new ways to get more money. This is not who I want protecting my family.

    I'm a mother of 3 amazing kids. They (cps) have based my resent case with my two younger children on my first. She was abused and hospitalized by her father. I was involved with any of the danger my her at all. I had my second daughter 2 years later I left her dad because he abused dog think what would he do to a newborn if he's mad. I had her for almost 4 months. Cps came to my moms where i was staying for backup help and source for if I needed it. When they took her I was devastated had no idea what to think they found no formula in bag because I was making her bottle plus she had juice in baby bag. Very berry 50% juice. Well I was told by my doctor I could do that just put more water. In their (cps) eyes that's horrible to give your child. My daughter was also down by two oz and it was cause I was breast feeding. They have came up with so many excuses to why I can not have my child. First was cause I supposedly refused services when I told them no to the money because my ex bf had a job. So they got her next day. Second reason my bf had dv on record no hitting or abuse. Never once laid hands on me and very very good with children. I explained to him everything that happened with my first said I never wanna see a child suffer what mine is suffering. Till then he's always proved me he's an amazing father to my daughter when we had her and during my pregnancy. They won't place her with anyone no family member nothing.... I want her back I've done everything and proved them I'm different. I used to smoke marijuana now I'm clean a year and 2 months have a job were you have to be required to be clean saving for a place getting a car and lisence. I don't know what else to do. Now me and my ex had a son he's 3 months and they took him from his dad because they told me too dumb to parent which I know how to cook clean and lots more. So when they didn't have a hold on him at the hospital I sent him home with dad because they had no hold on my son. They took him 2 days later he was back at birth weight and everything. Well he goes to foster care and looses lots of weight. Sadly my children have had lots of problems in foster care. :( they now say that since I'm not good with such big words and I ask for what it means then ask to say then sentences again that I won't be able to care properly for my children. In my eyes they have always in Stevens county twisted and countlessly lied about parent. I have doctor notes and ect prof of how I parent with my child and how they believe I make an amazing mom. We need to take action and make them pay for what they have done for us broken families. Multiple hearts broke over small lies to get children. Not to mention my attorney hasn't help me once but be on there side... How sad is that. :/ i want to take action now.

    This is down right evil and illegal this is child trafficking plain and simple whether it be a government agency or not This is illegal! Maybe we all should get restraining orders on cps agencies and/or employee and thier affiliates or any other agency acting on cps behalf! Reading this is gut wrenching and what makes it even more gut wrenching is that some people will actually threaten to call cps on parents when their clearly is no abuse going on but are unhappy within themselves and don't agree with your approach to paRenting or have ****ed them off and they are vengeful..... If you are one⬆ of these ppl just know the word abuse or rape comes with severe actions and consequenses and can ruin multiple people lives. This needs to be plastered on ever news channels radio stations and social media. THIS IS WRONG AND SHOULD BE LABELED AS CHILD TRAFFICKING AND EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THIS IS GOING ON!

    on march 13, 2015 cps told me that when i kissed my kids and sent them off to school would be the last time i would see them again. It broke my heart hearing those words cps deemed me as "irrational" , what parent that truly loves their children wouldnt be. Cps GAVE my x husband (WHOM JUST 4 YEARS PRIOR I DIVORCED due to dv and threatening to commit suicide in front of my children i got full custody of children in divorce) custodyJust like that Not a court date, nothing and he all of a sudden had custody (i didnt lose my parental rights and they never modified parenting plan). And 1 year old was put into foster care, between march and may 2015, my baby had already been in 2 foster homes, in and out of ER for ear infections before finally being placed with my cousin 2 weeks before his 2nd bday. Cps has lied to me, my family, my boyfriend (babys dad) and my lawyer. Last week i asked if i was able to attend my babys 2nd birthday, you know what my cps worker told me "birthdays are for FAMILY ONLY, and your not family!" How is that for kick in the chest.

    I have been fighting cps for two yours they have torn my family apart. I have done everything I went to inpatient graduated did iop graduated did op graduated doing anger management did mental health have been discharge did two classes of fathers maters classes did parenting class did them all. they have me and my wife so stressed out and depressed that we got in an argument i received a dv 4th degree assault and now they say im done my kids are going to be adopted off. i haven't even been found guilty of the crime but cps has already convicted me of it. my lawyer is getting the assault charge dropped but cps seems to be the judge and jury of my fate with my kids.they have told me either sign my rights away to a relative or i will never get to see my kids again. they say they look out for the safety of my kids but when they picked my kids up in Olympia to take them to a foster home an hour away they didn't even put my kids in booster seats they brought them to my visit and again my kids where not in booster seats not even i would put my kids in that kind of neglect but cps can do anything they want.I have turned my life around been clean and sober for nine months and i am attending Grays Harbor College taking human services to get my AA and become a chemical dependency counselor but still my kids will be adopted off.What kind of justice is this?

    My three children where taken Jan 2013 because I was on Meth and not being a good mother. Since then I have been clean for 15 months I have finished every class they have asked me to do Now they (CPS) are saying because of my learning disability ( I'm a little slow) that I can have my kids back. Even though I can cook, clean, shop that public bus go on school outings I do have family support also who will help me I feel they are convicting me with out me being able to do anything about it . So yes I will stand with you for my kids and others. This is wrong I want my kids back with me... They took them because of the drug use not my disability

    I have been fighting with C P S for the past two years. they placed my two beautiful daughters with their great aunt. since that time she has been lying and manipulating the system and though I have made considerable progress from where I was in my life I feel there is nothing further I can do. every time I feel that my life is going back on track, I get called into the CPS office for a reminder of just how little control I truly have over my life since they have taken over. I should not feel so powerless in a system set forth to help families. my children start acting up when they're in the aunts house and I get blamed. my children run away from school while in the custody of the aunt and I get blamed. and yet when on visits between me and my girls they never have an issue act up or misbehave.no I have records to prove this knowing that the office seems to be interested.no matter what bad things happen, it is my fault. Whatever good things happen gets acredited to the children staying with Aunt and "how good of a job she is doing".I would like to join those of you who can truly understand my pain in fighting this corrupt system in making it better for those who truly need the help.

    Destroying families and hurting children while they say they are trying to help. Families, friends and children are all affected by these CPS workers that aren't willing to take the actual time to get to know them but instead jumping to conclusions. The gravity of long-term effects on these families that are unnecessarily going through the system is substantial and harmful to everyone involved. The system needs a change now!

    I am a mandated reporter in WA state due to my job. I have reported multiple times to CPS on behalf of my boyfriend's 2 children & their baby sister. The mother is at this time unfit. CPS however refuses to remove the children or do anything about the situation. My boyfriend had a team meeting at the Tacoma, WA office today with the mother and the caseworker. The caseworker tried to tell him he was the one who was losing visitation (illegal for her to do mind you) and she told him that even though I am a mandated reporter it is hurting his side of the case and that it is just a bunch of petty complaints that are piling up on her desk. I'm over here like what the hell...I'm mandated for one so yes I will report what I legally have to but how can anyone say that an adult (mother in this case) neglecting to get her children proper medical care, proper school enrollment, driving around high with the children in the car and refusing to make them wear their seat belts among many more things of this nature is not cause to remove the children. And topping it off she also said the reports for one child's school counselor is petty as mine and she won't do anything. We did not even know until last week that the school counselor had been not only calling CPS but the local law enforcement as well. Something needs done about these caseworkers. They are failing our children and their families.

    My story is another like the other parents and grandparents. My granddaughter was taken from her mother in Bellingham wa. as she went to prisonfor eight years.my son went to court and the judge released her to her dad he then brought her back to walla walla.Soon after the cps was at his door saying they were supervising her. But he could put her with a family member and she went to live with her aunt and uncle, what was suppose to be six weeks untill they get paperwork done . It was all arranged. my son thought that he was going to get to bring her home monday. He gets to their office and they tell him that they never said that because the worker was on vacation.They then said they were going to place her in a foster home.This has been going on for two years she is now five she will never have a normal childhood courtesy of cps. And the irony is he hasn't done anything to loose her. They have lied and made this a game and the only thing they are worried about is the mother getting to spend time with her while she is in prison.I am going to take a recorder in the meeting with us on monday I',m giving it to the news and let other people know what they are putting family's through for litteraly nothing.and its time someone exposes them for they baby snatchers they are.

    My children were removed and 2 lived on the streets. One was adopted out to strangers! She came home as soon as she turned 18! They have nothing to do with her since they had to pay SS Back for the checks they forged and no longer get money. I took her to pick up her 12 years of memories and clothes! It all fit in a duffle bag! Adopted children should not have a check tied to them. Far too many sickos out there!
