[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 457194, member: 6705"] CPS needs parenting classes, preferably with special needs kids (and/or difficult children, take your pick). The one that showed up at our door when bio called saying we'd planted 3 loaded guns in a suicidal teenager's bedroom refused to listen to husband - we have ONE, it was in PIECES, and hardly loaded - just told him "why don't you give her custody and walk away like a good father." Clearly this guy had no children of his own. The one who, when J complained to a teacher that Mommy punched him in the head, came to our house and started in on ME, did back off when J said, frightened, "WRONG MOMMY!"... But then she called bio, asked her, bio denied, case closed. No investigation. The one who came out to listen to O, when she wanted to tell them about being beaten... And did nothing. There were no bruises, of course - it had happened months before. The one who threatened husband with jail if he [I]ever[/I] tried to file a report again with pictures of the kids' bruises. And then there was the one who has helped us with O. Fact is, most of them are idealistic to begin with, and haven't a CLUE how the real world works. Then they get disillusioned with the system and leave, and in come a new crop of naifs. [/QUOTE]
