CPS (Child Parent Separators), needs to be dismantled. It may have had good intent years back, but, that time has past.REPORT COMMENTS

In Illinois the Department of Children and Family Services is a despicable joke! My son who is now almost 16 was repeatedly molested by his father when he was approximately 6-9 years old. He has tried to commit suicide 3 times now. But while hospitalized with the 1st attempt he told hospital staff about the sexual abuse, DCFS did not go to the hospital or make any contact with him or with me regarding the information that the hospital called them with. I had to take my son to the Rolling Meadows Police Station upon discharge from the hospital. The DCFS had him interviewed at the Children's Advocacy Center and were putting a safety plan in effect to protect his sister(my daughter)who is still with the molester. My son suffers daily, he had made very bad choices for the last two year because he doesn't think anyone believe him. He believe that his father doesn't have to abide by any laws and that he is himself is for lack of a better word...My son feels insignificant. HE IS NOT INSIGNIFICANT! My son suffers from bipolar, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. His flashbacks of the abuse are so vivid that he at times can tell you what the weather was outside during the abuse. I was told by the Rolling Meadows Police that because my ex-husband and I have a past that they were less likely to believe what my son was coming forward with! The detectives also told me that they are so good at their jobs that 90% of the time they can get 'these guys' to admit what they have done.(WOW...REALLY?). And, the only thing my ex-husband would admit to doing was breaking our son's arm in a drunk'n rage...Yes he broke our son's are when this poor young child was 7 years old. That was the beginning of the behavioral issues and the sexual abuse was already happening. (yes he was indicated...he was never put in the Central Registry and he coached various teams and never got a slap on the hand. However, he still got custody and was able to continue with the abuse). As I said DCFS is a despicable joke! The investigator for the department told me she was not indicating my son's father for the sexual abuse because my son had been watching videos and had experimented sexually. All of these things are TEXT BOOK of children that have suffered sexual abuse. She also tried to turn it around and tried to charge my son for the sexual experimentation. (as a sexual abuse)... These boys were friends...and while they were watching these videos and experimenting the so called parent was home...What was he doing? Apparently not parenting! MY SON AND ALL OF THESE CHILDREN DESERVE JUSTICE. My son has been treated like criminal throughout this whole thing. Basically told in so many words (as was I) that he was lying. I will be perfectly honest with you; thirteen year old boys don't come forward with this type of information unless it is true. It is uncomfortable, embarrassing and not something that they want their friends and family members to know about unless it is TRUE!! I will advocateREPORT COMMENTS

My 4 children were taken I was founded and i agree i abused my one son who has many issues i gave up at birth and regained custody of after he had been damaged.My other 3 children have also been kept in care four 4 years, we were deeply connected to and bonded with. I have spent these years healing myself and learning to be the best parent these children need, doing every service they ask of me, they continue to drag this on my children act out after our visits, while in their current foster home the mother has been arrested twice with my children in her care is now being investigated by dcfs for spanking, and verbally injuring my kids, and no matter how much my kids beg to come home and say they fear these foster parents, dcfs leaves them in this home stating my kids are acting out because we show no structure, this is insane! I pray for justice and advocacy to reunite families, my kids are suffering!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!REPORT COMMENTS

in my beliefs I feel that the way this service is being run is not I repeat not a family service as it was when it first came to be it was designed to help families to become stronger now all it does is weaken them to the point where one or both parents will end up on Americas Most wantedREPORT COMMENTS

I myself have requested just copies pertaining to investigations and calls to social workers in the past and present without receiving a response in paper or by phone calls from two different offices. One of my own county, and the other in Walla Walla County. My children are left alone in the middle of the night on school nights from around 9pm until almost 3:00 in the morning while my ex goes and drinks at the bar instead of tending to the needs of our eldest who is only 14. our second son started a fire the last time she left them alone in the middle of the night to go and see a boyfriend of hers, and the fire caused 3rd degree burns on a child she had with the boyfriend after me. She lost custody of that child. Why do you side with just one gender and alienate the other parent? My son is at his wits end and it is emotionally abusive and academically hindering! Please stop this nonsense, or give the children to the other parent who cares about their children!REPORT COMMENTS

The system is corrupt, poorly reviewed, and there is little to no accountability. The actions of many caseworkers amounts to nothing less than child trafficking for profit. There needs to be a serious objective investigation as to whether the current policies and processes of DCFS are in the best interest of the children.REPORT COMMENTS

I was deployed in Iraq. and during my deployment, my wife at the time had been investigated by DCFS in Pierce County. I was not notified about anything. Once I arrived back to the state of Washington, my child was in the care of his grandmother. The mother had signed off her parental rights. During that time she conceived a child by a different man prior to me coming back to the states. I was the presumed father according to the law, however the childs alleged and biological father wanted rights to the child. I signed a disestablishment of paternity form and because a genetic test was ordered by the judge. The presumption of fatherhood was rebutted, however, DCFS and the attorney generals office covered up evidence and mislead the court. I was placed on child support by the mother of the children and the maternal grandmother. I consented and acknowleded poaternity for my chikld however. Jamie Taft (Attorney General's Office) and the Division of child support used that consent form to place me on child support for the child that is not mine. The biilogical father has exclusive visitation rights and ui do not have any. The two kids are assigned to different case numbers. The prosecutor refused to reopen the case because they realized that a dna test was done which compromised the case and rebutted the presumption of fatherhood challenge. My case was supposed to be transferred to Maryland and then to Louisiana and no case files were ever transferred. I was denied a copy of the child support final order. I do not believe an order exists for the child that isnt mine. The information was entered manually rather then having an actual order. The court appointed attorney represented me in order to have my son turned back into my custody was disbarred yet still worked my case for a month after suspension of license. The second attorney Jennifer Oconner also was disbarred after assisiting me. DCFS. the prosecutor, Division of Child Support in Washington State, and the guardian ad litem, the childs mother, and the maternal grandmother mislead the court. The Divisioin of child support refused to adjust my child support and once i was excluded as father based on dna testing which refutted parentage due to presumption of fatherhood. Louisiana enforce the order without receiving an actual order for the child that was not my child. I never cohabitated with the mother during or after conception. I never met the child, I did not sign the birth certificate, I never assumed prenatal or finanicial responsibility, nor did I have a parent child relationship with the child. I have emails between the attorney generals office Jamie Taft and the attorney at the time which clearly indicates that the ball was dropped. I am in the midst of filing complaints in hopes justice will prevail. a list oif helpful info: Washington State Executive Ethics Board 360-664-0871 Washington Attorney General Complaints 1800-551-4636 Dept of Justice 1800- 869-4499REPORT COMMENTS
