[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 391356"] I agree with Hex, document all that you can. My advice in the meeting with CPS be very honest, very upfront and just tell them I am afraid of what she could do, this is a safety issue for myself and my younger children. I don't believe it is safe for my younger kids physically or emotionally for her to be here. We need help, and she needs help. I highly doubt they will force you to take her under those conditions. I know CPS everywhere has a bad name because people always hear horror stories, but I have to say I have worked with CPS quite a bit through my job and they do some good work and do help families. They are underfunded like everywhere else.... but make it clear how bad it has been and how unhealthy for your younger kids and I suspect they will listen. Whatever you do come across as polite and cooperative. [/QUOTE]
