I’m not much of one to follow faith or prayers, but my hopes and thoughts are always with you on this. I’m Arabic, and I can completely understand what the discrimination is like. There’s not much I can do directly, unfortunately, but I’m going to try my best to get this out to as many people as possible.

I’m so sorry!

I’m so sorry for your boys and your family. I have a 5 year old with PDD-NOS, and I often fear others will not understand that some of the issues he has are due to his own special “wiring,” and not due to poor parenting.

I will e-mail your link to my friends and family, and try to help you spread the word. I will also keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

[...] Rather than repeat all of the sordid details here, I urge you to read this post, which outlines the truth about what really happened. Also please read Carolyn’s account of the truth. [...]

Wow…I am in shock and disbelief. Some social workers can be the devil. I’ve seen it first hand happen to my cousins. They try to dig up any dirt on you so they can use it against you in court. They try and make you out to be a monster of some sorts that can’t properly take care of kids. It’s very appalling.

I’m a regular reader over at Jenn’s blog, and know how much you guys do for those boys through the stories she shares with the rest of us. So there’s no question in my mind that you are completely capable of taking care of those two precious boys.

I’m also from Canada and not sure how I can help out. The only thing that comes to mind is spreading the word via my blog. So I’ll grab one of those banners and put it up asap.

I’ll definitely keep you guys in my prayers as God has the power to change any outcome.

Wishing you the best,
Tina Silva

This is horrible, horrible, horrible.

I’m not sure what I could do to help – being from Canada and all, but I will keep checking back for updates and get the word out myself.

Miranda the sad thing is that this happens more often than people realize. And, I mean parents who are good parents and have done nothing wrong. I too followed the advice of therapists and MH/MR to just go along with and appease CYS. And, this is where it has gotten me: my children abruptly taken from me. Initial promises of their sister Jenn being able to have kinship of them at the courthouse and in front of my attorney, only for them to deny it a couple days later via a cell phone call. I truly feel a lot of this is spite work and perhaps ego trips and control issues.

My attorney was the one who told me that this type of thing occurs everyday. It’s just that the American people are not made aware of these practices and the emotional damage done to the children and their families. Let alone the very real dangers that we have all read about in newspapers where foster children have been physically and/or sexually abused, if not outright murdered.

And this is supposedly in the best interest in my children?!?!?!? Anybody’s child?

It is beyond ridiculous that this can so easily happen. It is time for the American public to exert pressure on our lawmakers and change the laws in order to provide protection against this outright flagrant abuse of the current laws in order to give both children and parents more rights and more protection. Our children need and deserve this protection as surely as they need us.

And Janet, I am hoping that perhaps your friends may have names and/or numbers for us to contact in helping to get my boys back where they belong. At home where they are safe and loved.

In the meantime, I wish to thank everybody for visiting this site, all of your comments and suggestions. As well as keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you

This is heartbreaking, and I’m so sorry that I have no words of advice. All I can offer is my support and let you know that your family is in my thoughts. It’s ridiculous that something like this could happen, it really is.

Hi. I’m going to try to get some of my friends who are social workers and/or who have worked in the system to try to work on this to see if they can help come up with a way to help you guys out. I have faith that they will be able to help. Since I currently have no other way of helping besides my prayers, I’ll pray and get my family to pray.
