[QUOTE="Jolosh6, post: 432726, member: 12037"] She is on medications.. She takes 30mg Aderall and she takes Celexa for depression which is only caused from being in this situation. Our case worker from DCFS that we now have to have come to our house once a month came yesterday and she is a nice lady however she works for the people that have us in this awful situation and as much as she seems to not feel like thos is right she is im sure she has an obligation to not let it be known to us but she did say how she dont understand how its legal for her principal to have said he couldnt take her back because of her spec needs her Dr said she needed when she was in the school because he had no available staff to work with her. I tried explaining to the lady thats the reasin im fighting this she should have been on IEP so he wouldnt have had to report her truant and we never would have ended up in court with a juv officer who knows nothing about a child with spec needs telling the judge what should happen to her. She said same thing iv heard from everyone including my own lawyer .. Now that its court ordered she be in the school ran by DCFS its next to impossible to get the judge to change the order as long as DCFS and juv officer/ probation officer are telling him this is what they feel is best for her. The lawyer I hired simply showed up in court the day of the hearing when her problem officer turned me intoDCFS for ed neglect because I refused to enroll her in this jail they call school and they were trying to take my daughter away along with my other 2 kids who both hapoen to be honor students and he agreed to give DCFS protective custody of my kids so now they have protective custody of my daughter who hasnt ever been in trouble or even had detention and simply wasnt showing good attendence due to a medication diagnosis and was told by me she could quit and get ged because i wasnt aware law changed to a year older being age to do so and we tried to return to school but were told she couldnt because they had no staff to deal with a kid needing spec help and my two other kids who also never been in trouble and are both strait A students becsuse i am charged with ed neglecting them. Needles to say that lawyer and I arent on good terms! The court apptd a lawyer to represent my daughter and she was in court the day of the hearing as well and also told the judge my child should be in this jail school even though she never met or spoke to her once and asked me aftr i contacted her to ask why she would say what she felt best for a kid shes never met if i could send her files because she hasnt got the files from juv office or DCFS yet so she told judge she agreed never even having seen file. My daughter has vision problems which she sees ok with her glasses but she has inflamation on corneas that she sees specialist for and she gets bad headaches and light sensativity from so she missed 3 days last week with Dr excusing the days I was told dont matter she has to make the days up by staying 2 hrs late evryday and sat school until she has the days made up and she will be out this week two days for Dr appts so she will be doing late days and sat school til end of time since she has alot of dr appts on reg basis. School is out now for her brother and sister but she still has to go since its year round jail school as i like to call it and we wont be able to do any of the things we usualy do in summer since I stay home with them we like to go to pool or just get out and do summer stuff since shes in school all summer and even on sat now and this is a kid who had a melt down dealing with reg school going half days and being able to walk out and go sit in counclr office if she was having trouble coping but at this place shes not even allowed to speak to tell them shes having issu with anything or she adds hours to the aftr school she already has and i had to sign a paper that said anytime a child tries to walk out of class without permission they do whats called restraints and its where three grown men take the child to the ground and apply plastic cuffs on them when enrolling her against my wil because if i didnt a sherrif was coming to take my kids away and i wanted to vomit as i signed it! Im at end of my rope it seems like the juv court can do anything they want and cant be gone up against. Iv gathered her records and iv sent letters from her dr stating this is having a bad affect on her and i keep hearing it dont matter its court ordered. When i told her juv officer im having to take and pick her up daily to the school since she cant handle a bus full of kids much less ones that are handcuffed or in home arrest bracelets for some crime they commited she looked at me and said thats ridiculous!! If anyone has any advice how i can save my baby girl from these people that do not care about her and show that she is only in the system because the school didnt do what the law says they have to do i could really use the help... Thanks! [/QUOTE]
