Native American Teen-age Girl Medically Kidnapped by State of Missouri
Native American Teen-age Girl Medically Kidnapped by State of Missouri:
How does a teenager being held against her will by a man turn into her being taken from her parents by Child Protective Services and being held against her will in a group home? How can a system allegedly allow such a man to make false reports to the police about the parents, and he is the one who goes free, while her parents watch in horror as police and CPS kidnap their daughter from them hours after they rescue her from her assailant?

Alabama Girl Medically Kidnapped and Forced on Drugs: Parents Facing Jail for Failure to Pay State Child Support
Alabama Girl Medically Kidnapped and Forced on Drugs: Parents Facing Jail for Failure to Pay State Child Support:
Laine Norris of Alabama had good reason to refuse permission for her 15 year old daughter to be taken to DeKalb County Mental Health Center and be put on anti-depressants, as demanded by Child Protective Services. Both of Laine’s parents had been prescribed anti-depressants by that very facility – her mother at the age of 22, and her father at age 54, one year prior to the social worker’s demand. Both of her parents subsequently committed suicide after taking the medications.

Children of drug users are growing victims in opioid epidemic
Children of drug users are growing victims in opioid epidemic | Special Reports - WMUR Home:
State officials said a rising number of abuse and neglect cases in New Hampshire are connected to parental or caregiver abuse of opioids.
My Comment: "DCYF said that in cases of drug use, proving harm to a child is difficult at times. It said that under state law, DCYF must prove harm in order to get an order to remove a child." Since when? Is "preponderance of evidence" no longer used in Family Court cases in order to take a child? Has the Law changed recently to "burden of proof? My research shows it hasn't.

What about parent's who are charged with "Neglect in the Future"? Even though they aren't guilty of neglecting the child in the past or present, what gives DCYF the right to state a parent will neglect the child in the future? Are they hiring Psychic's now? DCYF has no proof the child will be neglected in the future, yet the Judges go right along with DCYF's prediction and removes the child.
"Heroin, opiod use and abuse have a lethality about them, and how do you work with families on keeping their children safe when we don't necessarily have the evidence?" DCYF Director Lorraine Bartlett said.
"Heroin, opiod use and abuse have a lethality about them, and how do you work with families on keeping their children safe when we don't necessarily have the evidence?" DCYF Director Lorraine Bartlett said.
Since when does DCYF need evidence proving guilt to take a child from his/her family? How can that statement be made when parent's are NOT afforded due process in Family Court and the Judges deny the parent's the right to admit evidence proving innocence?
What about parent's who enroll themselves into programs, but are Court ordered out of them in order to regain custody of their children? Last I heard, that was illegal, but just try to get a Lawyer in NH to fight for you.
Though I will admit Lorraine Bartlett is doing a much better job than her predecessor ever did, it still does nothing for the INNOCENT families who have already lost their children at the hands of the former Director Maggie Bishop.
