[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 419790, member: 1991"] Maybe pre-empt things and contact protective services yourself. Ask them for advice. Because for them to take a child, ANY child, is something they do not want to do. They would have to find a place for that child and if the child has problems, it is even more difficult for them. If the child has serious health issues such as your daughter, they are very unlikely to go to that trouble when your main purpose in "abandoning" anyone, is to protect her. Why would they take her form you, if you are doing hat you do primarily to protect her? You could (I would, if it happened to me under those circumstances) go right to the media who would have a field day making protective services look really, really bad for taking your seriously ill daughter away from you when you were only trying to protect her, appropriately. If you call them first and say, "How do I protect my daughter from her brother who is violent and has been tying to hurt the family pet?" then the onus is on them to advise you appropriately. The threat of abandonment has been made to others. The main reason the threat is made, is to force the parent to take back the child that you WANT protective services to take. Why, when protective services are trying to do this to avoid taking any child, would they then take both? I can understand your fear, however. Marg [/QUOTE]
