[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 659785, member: 13542"] Having been in that situation of having to speak in court on behalf of my granddaughter, you may want to write down exactly what you want to say, it is challenging to remember everything when you are actually in the courtroom in front of the judge. I tried to not be emotional and yet get it clearly across that my granddaughter was not being cared for, was being neglected, etc. Focus on your fears, based on facts, for your granddaughter's safety. You might add praying for guidance, if you are inclined. A lawyer for you would be helpful, however, in the absence of that, you might check with the DA about his/her experience with this kind of case and the best way to present your case to the judge. He knows this judge, so he may be able to provide you with information. [/QUOTE]
