Hello, this is the first time I have logged on since December 23, 2012, just by coincidence...I have had a very rough time since that date. I won't go into great detail at this time, but I have been in a battle against the "system" since around June 10,2013. The most recent event was that my kid's school reported her truant to the court, it was due to a combination of miscommunications between the attendance secretary and I, as well as my daughter chronic migraines (has 1 every 10-14 days). When I was served court papers at the door, I was shocked and immediately my with the Principal the next day. I explained everything to him, and he said not to worry about the court. He said I would just go to court with her, the judge would tell her to go to school, and I might have to pay a fine. He said we would have a new semester, new start. He called in the Attendance lady to clear up miscommunications. And called in school social worker to notify her that my daughter may qualify for a 504 plan for her migraine issue as well as, anaphylactic peanut allergy.

When I went to court, after Xmas break, the judge told me that typically parents Do NOT need an attorney for Truancy cases. Then I explained what the principal had said. The court didn't believe anything I said. It was continued...next time I came back with plan of improvement from school social worker. This didn't address the PAST absences. I continued to make 4 appearances...I was appointed court appointed attorney on the 4th appearance.

I met my court appointed attorney on the 5th appearance, we never spoke outside of court. Then I lost custody to the state on the 6th appearance. Judge said she is allowed to live with me still, as long as I accept "services" from CPS.

My daughter and I were taken into conference room with state CPS worker. She told me that I HAVE to accept Family preservation services or my daughter would go to Foster care....She said to my daughter, "You are this close to being put in a Foster home." She threatened Foster care more than 5 times, in front of my daughter. I feel my daughter was being emotionally abused in front of me.

I asked what the "services" were, she said I didn't need to know. I told her I needed time to think about it.....She gave me until 9am the next day to verbally accept the "services".

I am now being forced to let her and a caseworker(from state owned mental health/foster care program) into my home Tomorrow at 4pm. They want to tell me what "Services" I need. I consulted with several private attorneys and all say Just do what the state says. Jump through their hoops. Don't act subversive or disrespectful of the authority, or it will look like I am hiding something.

I was not found guilty of anything and truancy case is going to trial. I can't believe the judge can give temporary custody of my child to the state, over truancy allegation. I don't want to let the state in my home. I feel like she is looking for something else to charge me with. But all attorneys said just do it, the state doesn't want to take my child.

My daughter is having anxiety and fear about being removed from her home. I am under extreme stress as well. The school now is NOT returning my emails. And I found 2 attendance errors from this semester that they have corrected. I feel as though the school is afraid that I will sue them, and went into self protection mode.

I appreciate Any advice, wisdom, or positive energy and prayers. Thank you.

So sorry to hear about this keturah.

It really is terrible when the system forces you to comply with it's demands. I don't know what the individuals that you have to deal with are like, but the last time I had to deal with the system I made an effort to connect with the individuals I had to deal with. I actually found once people realized that I wasn't going to approach them with hate, anger or abuse, that they actually softened their approach and began to work with me rather than against me. I realized most of the individuals working for the system know it is F***** and when they are treated with warmth and understanding of their roles (boxes that need to be ticked etc) they are actually very willing to reveal loopholes and ways that the system can be 'worked' in your favour.

Sending you some good energy and I hope this situation resolves itself soon.

if she is an indigo child, your experiences are very normal for a parent.

if I asked your child what her favorite color was, what would she say?

next time that your little angel has a headache, I want you to go to Solar Charts(click the light blue in my signature) and look for what energy is hitting us that might be affecting her headaches...

being gifted and not understanding she absorbs energy that needs to be spent on good might make a world of difference...

if she hates deserts, turn them green...


an indigo child, which are now to generation Z, are like many of us, connected in a way we don't understand, but the children can send healing to each other as easily as taking a breath. Many fighting the voices in their heads, get headaches, but it is just other gifted children trying to connect and help her.

understanding she is very special, might help her through these hard times...

she's already met me, and has me sharing what she can't...

[grizzzly]

so sorry to hear of your trouble.having been through something similar my best advice is to document everything.record all the meetings on your phone or another device so that any verbal abuse can be put on record.don't let them scare you into panic call on your universal self for strength and stay calm.we got someone to act as an advocate and attend all meetings with us.I looked at a post on the peoples voice yesterday from a CPS whistle blower Carlos Moralez who has set up an advice service it would be worth contacting someone like that to see if there is someone close to you who has an insight into the CPS and can advise you.I wish you enough peace to get through this (link below) .much love Grizzzly.

[ketturah]

Of course she is Very special and gifted...and what people may call indigo. I find it interesting you focused on her symptoms...She has had migraine since she could say, "my head hurts."...She has Many food/environmental allergies. Her eyes are still changing color as I have spoke on here before, Now they are grey with silver star design, really unusual. I gave her guitar for Xmas, and She came down from her room 2 weeks ago and said, "I want you to listen." She had taught herself to play her favorite rock songs, more than 7 and played a medley for me!!! I was shocked. She said "I play anything you want." She said, "I am better at guitar than my 18 yr old brother!" And she is...

She is upset about this court/truancy issue, and wants to fight the system and speak up. But all legal advisor say "Just Jump through their hoops, they are just trying to scare you." Why do social workers want Kids to be afraid of being removed from their home?

Thank you so much for the quick response!

I just started watching, and I am already afraid. I kind of knew it's all about Money!

[Rich]

... I am already afraid.
If you change your attitude about it, it will change the situation, the people will be different when you are (because you switch into a parallel reality according to Bashar). By letting go of your fears and negative feelings as best you can the situation will change accordingly.

[Ahnung-quay]

This is the same thing that is happening with the Lakota children in South Dakota. Except there they are actually recooping dollars by removing the children from their homes for trumped up reasons. Perhaps school attendance is one of them.

I had a similar problem with my daughter who was diagnosed with OCD. She is an Indigo and never wanted to go to school from day one kindergarten. This was in the 90's and I'm sure that things are worse now with CPS. I jumped through their hoops, one of which was sending her to a group home in a another town for a short period of time. Fortunately I did not lose her to permanent foster care. If I had, she would have turned into a runaway. She has finally received her HSED at age 28 and she still hated every minute of it. She's very intelligent and recognizes that those teaching her are not, they just know how to spew out state-controlled information.

Why is school attendance mandatory? Because given the choice, most students would stay home. The schools do not instill the necessary feeling that is good to learn for learning's' sake. They do not expand a child's horizons and knowledge. In fact, the way they are run, they stymie growth and learning.

In our schools they give the children three minutes between classes. Is that enough time to go to the bathroom especially if you're female? My daughter told me that she never went all day when she was in school because she didn't have time. She didn't want to go especially after puberty when she was menstruating. They also have coed P.E. After a girl develops, she does not wish to participate in physical competitive activities with boys who can use their physical skills against the girls. And, their is police officer inmost high schools and some middle schools full time. The people v.s. the state begins early. Cow the children rather than love them is their motto! These are just a few problems that I've come to know about our schools.

Parents need to get involved with their school boards and state law makers (where attendance standards are set) and change this. Unfortunately, without the attendance standards, schools lose federal funding. So, legislators need to be contacted as well. It's time for parents to rise up! Rigorous attendance is not making our children any smarter.

Most people can't afford private schools and many private schools also take federal money and hence, have the same guidelines in place. Attend, pass the tests and you'll be fine. We have a great nation of test takers! What is left is homeschooling if you live in a state that allows it. Many also don't have the time or resources to home school especially after a child is older.

If your child is taken away from you katturah, please consider charging your school system in a common law court. This would be the real you (not your strawman) charging them with psychological and physical harm to you and your daughter. Under common law, they would be guilty.

Document EVEYTHING. From the beginning. Dates, times, phone calls, headaches etc. This makes me so sick. Sending positive thoughts your way.
Fight this until the bitter end.
Can you just home school? Obviously if you work thats not possible. But in your situation it might be worth the sacrifice.

I have two questions:

Where is your doctor and doctor's excuses,
and why haven't you hired the most CPS-hating lawyer in town?

It is possible that a PRO BONO agreement could happen depending on your case.
Some lawyers LOVE showing the courts how stupid CPS can be in their states.
They love helping get kids back to parents who care about them.

I had some similar trouble with my own family (CPS "services" instead of DDD BENEFITS),
and my son isn't in my custody either (he lives in a residential facility).

It's really hard knowing the kids are in a 2nd rate home when the CPS workers get paid good benefits.

[Snowflower]

My first reaction is: run. I know, I know - that's probably not very possible, not wise (is it? - depends on how fast the system is crashing), not likely to be the solution. But, I say it because it's been my experience that once they get their mitts into you, they never let go. Is your daughter by any chance blond haired and blue eyed? The foster agencies have too many people offering to take girl/blond/blues and not enough offering to take boy/blacks, so they tend to find excuses to take blond girls out of their homes to get the money. In order to run you would have to be ready to leave everything in your life behind - family, friends, job, home - everything.

My second reaction is to agree with Tesla. Fight like hell. But you can't do that unless you get a shark for a lawyer. Oh - by the way - any attorney appointed by the state has ONE agenda and that is to get you to settle in such a way that the State gets money and doesn't have to spend time or money in a courtroom. I'd have to guess that the one lawyer in the bunch who actually cares would be about as hard to find as singling out a specific drop of water in an ocean. To find a shark, don't depend on what the lawyer says. Ask to see results from previous cases.

About your daughter's health. Check out gluten intolerance (not celiac). Read the book "Grain Brain," by Dr. David Perlmutter. It will change her life, no matter what happens (well - you still have to be able to provide food for her). Headaches are caused by brain dysfunctions in one way or another, and grains are at the TOP of the list of problems. Really - get the book.

Finally, I just want to say that my heart is breaking for both of you and I add my energy to the powers of the universe and ask that power to surround you in a warm blanket of love and protection, demolishing the power of the courts and CPS.

[Lifebringer]

Hire another attorney or go to legal aid. You've got to let someone who'll defend you "know what is going on" for the lawsuit to be pressed.
Someone to watch over you is your higher self, but look into family attorneys and make sure you use another phone, even if it's a friends or neighbor's phone. They have yours from the school and perhaps you're not as docile as others that have protested this adoption for state funds scam. Sometimes they have families pressuring them in adoptions after taking their money for years, and they have to bring them a child. Got to watch these people. Usually after the adoption, you'll find the social workers and education people all are friends, of a friend that can't have a child. It's all because the state wants matched funds for orphaned or foster care children. Time to do the right thing and get the pervies out of the adoption for hire business. Americans have found many a "higher up" with child porn on their office and home computers, even schools.

Delve delve delve, this is your child. Legal Aid society, and when and if this gets resolved to where you can sue them or they offer you a settlement, go for another state. Your child will thank you for it. They usually are going through some of the same "whack stuff administrative negligence" that most schools are going through. It's why I sent mine to public school. Toughened them up for the world, and they got a great education, if they were serious enough to reach for it, before NCLB. Get them on the run with a legal attorney that will request evidence upon which the child may be taken from the home. Attendance is NOT the serious charge they proclaim. I've seen chronic absenteeism, and the most a parent got was 1-3 days in jail after two or three times and not on the same case.

I'm sending protective prayer to you and your daughter against this taking away of a loving mother. If they wanted to do something they'd make sure she had some test for a better medication for the migraines or allow her to work in a less bright room to prevent them. Sometimes noise in the class can be just as bad as high pitch noises and they may be the ones responsible for not providing a quieter learning environment that doesn't promote headaches.
Flip the script on them, boo. Get a lawyer and flip the script, there is not price to not pay to keep your child, but Legal Aid is fair in pricing and sometimes they don't charge at all, pro bono.

[ketturah]

I hired the best attorney I could find....I feel the positive energy from the group...And I have my fight back, the good kind! Thank you all so much! I am glad I reached out for assistance from My people....

[Lifebringer]

Do not fear. Attack. Just ask how long the communication system works upon notifying parents of truancy?
Ask were there messages left behind that stated she needed a doctor's note? If she's doc approved/excused they cannot do a thing to you for a medical condition. When she has the headaches couldn't she be allowed work from home, until they pass? What suggestions such as a tutor at home on those episode days after you provide the note from doctor. Make them work their behinds off in their attempt. Put them to work answering these vital questions that bring your parenting to question. Because if it's there negligent system with no follow up or message/call to parent, then sue the bejeebers off them for your child's and your stress, then get the h-e-double hockey sticks out of the state. Go blue and be free to be a concerned parent.

With such migraines she is considered disabled if she misses a lot of time out. To which, it's a discrimination against a disabled child. Schools don't look too good with that logo attached.:madgrin::wave:

[Tesla_WTC_Solution]

My brother has horrific persistent daily headaches from bike stunt accidents.
he had to get a personal education plan or whatever it's called in his state, to allow for time at home.

ANother poster mentioned gluten etc.
that's a good start!

remember that MSG is sneaking back into lots of foods -- especially chips and pasta sauces, pizza and fast food, etc.
Glutamate Perturbations are the basis of much autism woe.

I guess some of the kids have trouble eliminating waste (urea and feces precursors) and anything you can add to her diet that helps with that is good.
Try a "Pro-Gest" supplement and Niacin if you can. see if she feels more "with it" and less exhausted.

it's effing miserable of the school to do this to you.
but keep in mind the post-9/11 environment is far more insane than many dysfunctional homes.
at least in the home some times are peaceful.
for USA there is no peace..

edit: Good Job on the lawyer. I wish I had saved some money and hired one -- I might still try to do that soon depending on what I hear re: my son's case.

maybe the current arrangement isn't the end of the world.
aside from relocating him physically the worst thing they've done to me is piss tests and embarrassing court appearances.

it could be worse -- my son truly is disabled/behind the curve and needs a lot of extra help -- however he really needs more social life and outdoor activity.

*wishing you the best*

please pray for my brother and son

[Journeyon]

Ketturah, may you and your daughter be supported by the truth. May your love of your daughter shine through so all can see the error of this system. May this painful experience unfold into one of blessing and wisdom for all involved so changes can be made.

In peace,
Journeyon

[Ahnung-quay]

Lifebringer made a good point. Once a physician order is in place, the school and CPS must include it in an IEP Individualized Program Plan. If a home tutor is suggested, the school must provide it under law. They have to provide anything that is necessary for your child to suceed. Get her pediatrician and a nerologist if possible.
