Removing Children From Parents – The Social Workers Bible: Persecution Strategies used by Social Workers

Below is the Abstract of a study made by academics in Sweden where family courts are not secret and where there is no gagging. But parents whose children were taken will recognise what they are doing:

The purpose of this study is to make a critical examination of six official reports in an LVU (Care of Young Persons Act) investigation, to detect the possible occurrence of persecution strategies in the social welfare service reports and, in that case, to define the strategies used and examine whether the investigation complies with the legitimate claims of objectivity and impartiality.

Arizona Governor Names Charles Flanagan, Former Director of Juvenile Prison to Head the new Division of Child Safety and Family Services

Arizona Governor Names Charles Flanagan, Former Director of Juvenile Prison to Head the new Division of Child Safety and Family Services

Governor abolishes CPS, creates new division

The governor on Monday signed an executive order that effectively abolishes CPS. Instead it sets up a separate Division of Child Safety and Family Services. More to the point, that agency will have its own director who reports directly to her.

She also named Charles Flanagan, who is currently heading up a special team reviewing CPS operations, to head that agency.

Tucson's Catalina Mountain School for troubled youths to close

Flanagan spent his Career as the State's Chief Warden of AZ children

I'm sure Governor Brewer means well, but shouldn't she have abolished CPS period and not renamed it? 

Shouldn't the Police be in charge of REAL cases of abuse, like in yesteryear? Where a bounty isn't put on each and every child's head stolen by the State?

385 kids removed from Ariz. homes in ignored cases

New Hampshire's Prescription Drug Abuse Problem

Isn't it a sad state of affairs when our own Doctor's over prescribe medication to their patients? Our loved ones suffer, along with their families. Where does one turn? It seems to be a lose, lose situation. Complaints are made, still no-one listens. Our loved ones become, addicted while the Doctors and Pharmaceutical companies make money off of our pain, turning our loved ones into useless zombies.
I recently met a woman who was prescribed Klonopins (Clonazepam) used to treat seizures and panic disorder. I swear these are the worse pill's known to man and should be banned. They are highly addictive and often times abused. They cause drowsiness, confusion and so many more unwanted effects. They even make a person seem intoxicated. In fact, I know of one woman who was arrested for intoxication while on Klonopin's, but that's a whole different story in itself. And yes, her life and her entire family's life was ruined because of it.
This woman I spoke of went to a Nashua Pharmacy to get her prescription filled. They were all out and she got sent to another Pharmacy. The second Pharmacy was also out. She was told they don't get enough Klonopin's delivered for all the people who take them and they had no idea when they would get more. She was sent to another Pharmacy, who by some strange chance was able to fill her prescription. Another woman had the same problem when trying to fill her prescription of Klonopin's. What is wrong with NH Doctor's? Why is this highly addictive drug prescribed more often than not?
When more than one Pharmacy  run's out of a Klonopin's, what does that tell you? And when a Doctor is told that a patient is abusing this medication, many times so confused that they forget when they take them, but do nothing to stop the abuse, what does that tell you?
It's no wonder so many of N.H.'s population are walking around like zombies. That is, when they can even get out of bed. What does a person have to do to stop this abuse? Where do they turn?

Sioux Mother Rescues Abused Children, Faces Arrest

Sioux Mother Rescues Abused Children, Faces Arrest | Stephanie Woodard:

The emergency-room doctor was furious at what he had seen, recalled Audre'y Eby, who is Rosebud Sioux and the mother of disabled 16-year-old twins. One of her sons, who is blind and autistic, squirmed on the examination-room table, screaming, "Ow, ow, it hurts!" The doctor had found livid red and purple bruises covering his penis and scrotum, according to the Nebraska hospital's records. Those injuries would soon lead to an arrest warrant for the mother -- not because she had caused the harm, but because she did not return her son, along with his wheelchair-bound twin, to their abusers.

People No Longer Matter. It's all About the Money!

What has happened to today's society when the only thing that matter's is Money? No-one cares about people anymore, only the almighty dollar. Only the money to be made off of the backs of other's.
A former orphan, who was in DCYF custody as a teen, was hit with a lien for almost $207,000 in medical expenses by the State of Rhode Island. See:

Former DCYF ward billed 207K by state Hit with lien for medical care from years ago

This former orphan didn't ask to be removed from his family. No child does. Why should he be responsible to pay the State for kidnapping him? For making his life a living hell? The State should be paying him. For that matter, why should any parent be held responsible to pay for their children being kidnapped by the State? Again, the State should be paying them. Parent's and families don't ask for DCYF involvement. They don't ask for the hell they're put through, but they're supposed to pay for it.

A NH Lawyer, hired by the Family Court, to fight for an accused Mother states he has more important client's than her and the State doesn't pay him enough to fight for her. Like I said, it's all about the money.

We all know drug companies pay Doctor's to push their medications, many times prescribing these medications to people who don't even need them. Many times causing these people to become addicted to the drugs they shouldn't be on in the first place. Many times causing the ruination of families when the Doctor's won't listen to relatives who complain of the unnecessary drugging of their loved ones. Of the addiction their loved ones now have making them unbearable to be around. Again, it's all about the money.

An article in a NH paper: 

Medicaid expansion gets new life in House, heads back to dubious Senate

State Rep. Cindy Rosenwald, D-Nashua, said New Hampshire already lost $4 million in enhanced federal grants by not expanding Medicaid on Jan. 1.

In my opinion, expanding Medicaid will only bring more problems, especially for low income home owner's. But again, nobody cares. Many of the people forced on Medicaid will lose their homes, just as the former orphan is now responsible for a lien on his asset's, the homeowner will also be responsible. Again, it's all about the money.

Children removed by the State, after their parents and families are accused of abuse and neglect are taken because of the Adoption Promotion Act. For every child removed, the States anti goes up. For every adoption, the States anti goes up. For every child the State drug's, their anti goes up. Again, it's all about the money.

When will people get a clue there is so much more to life than money? I've heard since I was a young child, Money is the root of all evil. And it is. It's been proven time and time again. Where there's money to be made, there's corruption. People these day's are just a dollar sign and families are expendable!

Happy New Year-2014! Could this be Our Year?

Happy New Year Everyone! Could this be our Year? The year of Child Protective Services demise?
I sure hope so. With all the stories this past year, shared around the world of CPS worker's finally getting their just desert's, this just could be the year their reign of terror comes to an end.

Maybe the Family Court's will even stop treating families worse than convicted criminal's. Maybe families will finally be given "due process" AND "Open" Court hearings, no longer hiding behind closed door's. Maybe the Federal Govt. will finally investigate the deceitful practices used against families and put an end to Title IV funding, used to destroy families. Maybe this year they will finally get it right and only reward CPS for families kept together. How about Services to at-risk families and Relative placement to truly abused children instead of Foster care. Better yet, abolishment of CPS and let the Police handle REAL cases of abuse, like it used to be. Put an end to the Adoption Promotion Act, responsible for the endless removal of children.
Responsible for the States trying to outdo each other in child removals in order to obtain more Federal funding. Jury trials would be nice also.

Here are just a few of Child Protective Services screw ups and firings for 2013. Let's hope 2014 see's many more firings, Worldwide. These stories also include innocent children, who died while in Foster care, where CPS was responsible for placing them:
