Former Foster Parent Exposes How CPS Kidnaps Kids Away from Good Homes – Puts them on Drugs

Former Foster Parent Exposes How CPS Kidnaps Kids Away from Good Homes – Puts them on Drugs:

I became a foster parent with the intentions of putting a roof over the heads of orphaned children. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. By the time I completed the training process, I understood that the majority of the children that would be entering my home were not orphans. I was brainwashed into believing the children had come from abusive and neglectful homes. I was told the state had rescued them from horrible living environments and that I was somewhat of a hero for taking them in.They were all lies. It took several years for me to truly see what I had become a part of.

Child Protective Services was stealing children from loving biological families.

It's a miracle: Democrats discover DCYF crisis

It's a miracle: Democrats discover DCYF crisis | New Hampshire:
Democrats in the New Hampshire House have miraculously discovered that New Hampshire’s Division of Children, Youth and Families is in dire need of reform. 

My Comment: DCYF has needed reform since Gov. Lynch was in office. In 2003 as well as 2010, DCYF failed it's Government assessments, but the Federal funding kept rolling in. Neither Lynch nor Kelly Ayotte did anything to reform DCYF then.

 In the past four years, the Republican's have been stopped by their Speaker of the House. The Speaker who put an end to the Redress of Grievance Committee. The Republican's have been well aware for at least the past eleven years that DCYF reform is badly needed. They sat and listened in shock, as parents and grandparents relayed and showed proof,of the nightmare's they've suffered due to the abuses they've gone through at the hands of DCYF and the Family Court.

The Redress Committee was "supposed" to help the people who testified. Their Petitions "Founded" and recommendations made by the Legislature. But that's as far as it went. They still wait in limbo hoping for a miracle. Hoping that someone, somewhere, will rectify their suffering and bring their ILLEGALLY  adopted out children home!
