My husband's ex girlfriend has custody of their 2 kids ages 11 and 8. In may cps took custody of the kids and gave them to my husband because their mom had been leaving them home alone and beating them with a belt (leaving huge bruises) and choking the boy. From the start cps has been eager to put the kids back into their mothers care. Even though she lives in her "new 50 y/o boyfriends house" She's 29. she has no job and the kids had never even met this guy. She's completely relying on this guy to take care of her and her 3 kids. The kids came back to us after visiting their mom for weekends and they would say their mom had been smacking their 4 y/o sister in the mouth and they could hear their mom and her boyfreind having sex. But the cps worker told the judge that the kids were lying about everything and the me and their dad told them to say every bad thing theyd said about their mom. Now I want to know WHY CPS worked so hard to put those kids back with their mom?? Just because she "completed" parenting and anger managment classes. Well big deal. Any bi*ch will jump through hoops to get the reward. And thats exactly what she did. She didnt learn anything. If she had she wouldnt still be slapping kids in the mouth. I'm sorry to say but I really dis-like this woman. She hateful and spiteful and will do anything to make me and my husband mad even if it means hurting her kids!! I can't wait to get her back into family court!!
I really hope this works out for you. I don't understand how anyone can abuse children, especially a mother. I hate seeing or hearing this.
Hang in there and I will pray for you and your family.
You should try going and talking to CPS in person. And report the person who was the investigating person. Cause she sounds like she needs another job. No person, who doest believe a child is being abuse when they dont know how to lie about that stuff, deserves that job. It takes someone special. I hope you win. But you need to take pics of any marks that come from the abuse, and do whatever it takes, inside the law, to get those kids. The best thing is the kids will know, that if you are fighting for them, then you care that something is going on. They know you and your husband love them and want them safe. And right now, that is one of the most important things.
if you see any more marks take pictures and if they are old enough to write have them write down what happened and if you can take them to CPS with you and if they wont listen go higher go to a different town with all the evidence you have and make sure you tell them everything the kids have told you and tell them just to tell the truth that you want to help them but dont coach them. (i was back and forth from parent to parent for awhile when i was younger so ive been through cps stuff.) Just make sure they know they are safe with you and they will open up and want to tell the truth about everything thats happening but i wouldnt take your time especially since the youngest is 4 and being abused for a long time can really impact the rest of your life. those kids need help ASAP!
