Is this something new thank's to all my ranting and raving? It's now okay to leave children in the care of their parent's in Methadone treatment, but it wasn't okay when my granddaughter was born? Is DCYF finally being held accountable after ordering my daughter OUT of Methadone Treatment? An ILLEGAL and DISCRIMINATORY practice? Are they finally aware Mother's in Methadone treatment CAN safely parent their child? That forcing a parent out of treatment only start's the addiction cycle all over again? That forcing a parent out of treatment at a fast pace will most surely cause the parent to relapse?
A parent in treatment can care for her child, yet DCYF in the past has chosen to remove many children from their recovering parent's, yet let women of drug addicted baby's off the hook. Baby's addicted to crack and heroin and baby's addicted to the mother's overindulgence of their pain medication.
In NH, DCYF does NOT take addicted baby's from their parent's. Their harder to place and Not worth as much money to DCYF. They only take the baby's from falsely accused parent's. Parent's whose baby's show NO sign of addiction. Parent's given morphine in labor. Parent's NOT afforded a REAL investigation, in which the DCYF worker testify's in court she didn't know the mother was given morphine in labor. Parent's who speak their mind's, who are now labeled to have an attitude problem when Counselor's and Hospital staff don't like when the parent speaks up after being treated like the scum of the earth.
Baby's are taken from new mother's because NH DCYF and CASA don't want grandparent's helping the parent with their grandchildren. They feel they can tell a parent that they can't live with their parent's with the baby, when they can't afford to move out on their own. Why, so the mother can be another NH welfare case? A mother who want's nothing to do with welfare, yet the DCYF worker sign's an application for Title IV-B funding when the mother refuses because she does NOT want TANF/welfare.
Even when the parent is sickly, CASA ask's,"Do you really think your daughter will be able to take care of the baby when she's so sick?" The grandparent responds with, "We'll be there to help." Then CASA comes back with,"Oh no. We don't want you helping her. She has to do it all on her own." Grandparent's response, "Didn't your mother ever help you with your children when you were sick? Isn't that what grandparent's do? Help their children when they need them?" No answer from CASA of course.
So why is NH DCYF now leaving children with parent's in Methadone treatment? Will they ever admit they were wrong stealing children from recovering parent's? I doubt that will ever happen!
