you said it my friend.. CPS miss the ones they should remove and KEEP removing up to 40% of the ones they shoudlnt.. it is an atrocity.. and ALL because they are run as a business.. CPS agents are pressured to removed children because that is how they are funded.. they do almost no due diligence.. and fail in their job WAY to often.
This 'service' is horrifying.. they need to totally clean it up and change the entire system.. they have NO incentive to reunify.. did you watch the video? that is not their goal because they have no incentive to do it..
they have also NO budget to help.. their ONLY power is to remove children and that is it!
Did you not read my reply? I know people that work for CPS. That is absolutely their goal. I am going to take the word over someone I know and trust who has been doing this for years over some random rant video on a social media platform.
u know someone in ONE small part of the world.. whereas i know people worldwide ... so yes perhaps you can listen up.. as i have heard and seen enough to know that the GLOBAL facts are indisputable.. you probably live in one of the better places..
My part of the world is small, but that doesn't diminish its impact. I really don't mind if you don't agree with me, I just wanted the other side of the story to be presented against this campaign of hate. Thanks for the healthy discussion.
i understand.. and for the record im not full of hate at ALL.. especially for people who i consider victims. which includes CPS workers in many cases.. as i say the system is absolutely messed up beyond anything i can bear to continue to witness.. bear in mind EVEN CPS admits that 75% of cases where children are removed are based on NO evidence.. that is insane.. too many thousands of children are messed up for life.. so im looking at that side of things rather than the occasions when they DO get it right..
thanks for your inputs.. i do appreciate them!
Haha, I just had to look at the comments, seeing how high the rewards were. More visibility = a wider range of point of views, and sure enough!
I haven't watched the video yet, but I will soon. :)
I'm confused why he mentions "worldwide" & "global" when we are talking about an American agency.
What do I know....moving on.
This is much bigger than just an American problem.
There are "Child Protective Services" in many, many countries. I am a co-founder of @familyprotection and live in Canada where my friends have gone through hell with our version of CPS. @markwhittam is the founder of @familyprotection and he had to flee from Sweden's version of CPS to protect his children. The stories shared @familyprotection are from bloggers all over the globe.
I did focus on USA but these stories apply globally. You can read more stories from europe, africa, etc at @familprotection
You trust them? Probably in part because you're cut from the same cloth. My husband and I started being investigated about 1 1/2 months ago, and the social worker has already lied to me 3 times. Will there be any consequences? Of course not, they can do whatever they want.
You are right. My number 1 goal and responsibility is the health and safety of the children. I guess I am cut from the same cloth as the workers I know.
Have you read through the @familyprotection posts? The system needs a complete overhaul. Too many innocent families are ripped apart.
Yes I browsed them. Trust me, we are not going to agree.
Blindly defending a broken organization and taking critisisms of it personally are irrelevant to protecting children, as is insulting others as "hateful".
Oh god that is what I wanted to say, but I was hoping someone else said it first. Its a buiseniss, the interest is not on the child, but on the money. And its a state buiseniss so they can do whatever and nobody can do anything about it or you get police at your home faster than your ordered pizza.
