How to Handle Custody of My Niece and Nephews So They Don’t Go Into the System
I’m writing to you with a question in regards to my sister’s three children that have become a ward of the state. Recently my sister has made some bad choices & due to her streak of bad luck that has followed, DCFS has now become involved, having an open case on them. The social worker claims that the children have not been removed from mother, & that her rights have not been taken, but it is now court ordered that they must reside with mom at my home – ”maternal aunt”? I have a question about if a girlfriend should be showering with children. I know it may not be a big deal, but there are other factors involved. My husband and I recently got divorced and have moved on. He has dated a woman for about 9 months now. She has been taking showers with my 3 year old when she is at her dad’s house for visitation. I don’t think it is appropriate for her to be taking showers with our daughter or our 1 year old. A child is in Morris Co. NJ DYFS care, no father listed on birth certificate. A man was told he was the father of this child but the mother wanted to wait for paternity testing until she regained custody. Three months later, she has not regained custody. The alleged father calls DYFS, gives them all the information they asked for and is still waiting for the paternity test to be scheduled. I was incarcerated in 2005 and my children were placed in foster care and adopted. How can I find out where they are and get them back? I have temporary custody of my teenage siblings. I smoke pot but not with them. Can I refuse a drug test, if one is requested? One of my in-law’s was accused of molesting my child and we do not want them to have contact with my child again. How can we ensure this? My mom spends most of her time drinking at bars. As an adult, am I able to gain custody of my younger sister? I live in Texas. CPS recently placed my nephew in my mothers custody. His mother signed away her rights and now my nephew is ward of the state. My nephew’s brother as lived with my mom since he was born. He is now 8 years old. If CPS made her sign her rights away what happens to the siblings??? She also has another son that lives with her aunt, they have had him since he was born and he is now 10. Does she still have rights to her other two boys? My niece is 15 years old and nine months pregnant. Her mother for the past three years has consistently kicked my niece out after arguments, not caring where she stayed, and my family has tried to help by taking her in. Yet, this last time, she stayed with her boyfriend for three months and then got pregnant while living there. When our family found out about this we called Child Protective Services as my niece had been living with these people since conception through her sixth month of pregnancy. We have been in contact with the Case Worker investigating the case but we are afraid that because of her age and her mother’s consent to let her continue living with her boyfriend (though she is underage and that is illegal) there is nothing we can do. Is there any legal measure we can take to ensure that CPS will follow through with the neglect and abandonment of my niece by her mother? What recommendations do you have for someone whose spouse was arrested during her 6th month of pregnancy, stayed 2 days in jail due to her BAC of .247 (determined by her visit from jail to the local hospital) and later charged with 3rd degree assault followed by probation. ubsequently the mother went on a trip to visit relatives promising to return in one week. One and one-half years later she has now filed for divorce. She was asked repeatedly to come back home to no avail, and even denied visitation until recently when the court ordered visitation times. The child is behind in speech, development and not potty trained and just recently learned to start wiping herself. Is this parental kidnapping, child abuse, child neglect, ???? And if so, should charges be filed in the state in which I reside or in the state the mother lives in? What the the minimum and maximum sentence for child abuse? There was a physical abuse of a girl that I know and I was wondering what the penalties for a child abuse can be. I live in Louisiana, my grandchildren live in Florida. They are visiting for the Christmas Holiday and have told me some things that have concerned me. The children have spoken to Child Protection but the step mother always seems to clear the air so to speak. What can be done about this? They are to scared to say any more to any one due to the trouble they get in when they do. After Divorcing, the 3 children, ages 4, 6 and 10 were taken away from the biological mother from Child Protective Services. The father has paid child support through wage garnishment. The biological mother is getting the child support check, but she does not have custody of the children. Is this legal and what can we do about it? My husband and I are trying to adopt an 18 month old girl from my husband’s cousin who is Bipolar. CPS has taken the child away and placed her in foster care. She is a mother that isn’t taking the proper steps to get her child back. We want to know what we are getting into. She’s told me that he has threatened her before, but has never admitted to him actually hitting her. He also has a history of drug abuse and violent behavior. Though I am an outsider to the whole situation, I know she’s trapped and wants out. The oldest son I will call him Greg, just turned 18. Ot his 18th birthday his biological mother threw a party at her home for him. The adults were all drinking liquor and smoking pot. Greg admitted that he was drinking with his biological mom and that she gave drinks to the 14 year old son as well. We have been told by childrens services that it is not illegal for a parent to give alcohol to their child. He (Greg) said that he would be willing to tell all to a judge if we end up in court over this. My fiance was convicted of a sexual assault about 11 years ago. He was 18 and slept with a 14 year old girl. He received a statutory rape charge and served 2 years. Will that charge hinder us from gaining custody or becoming foster parents? Our daughter lives with my ex in Florida. I moved to Canada, and I have her with me in the summer. I want to regain custody of her, as the conditions in Florida are neglectful. What can I do? If an incident occurred at the babysitter’s house with my daughter could they take her children from her? A single mother who in an act of desparation burned old love letters is now facing arson charges and afraid that she will go to jail and her children will go to CPS (child protective services). When child protective services (CPS) gets involved with your family, they wield an immense amount of power in determining what will happen with your children.

I don’t think it is appropriate for her to be taking showers with our daughter or our 1 year old. A child is in Morris Co. NJ DYFS care, no father listed on birth certificate. A man was told he was the father of this child but the mother wanted to wait for paternity testing until she regained custody. Three months later, she has not regained custody. The alleged father calls DYFS, gives them all the information they asked for and is still waiting for the paternity test to be scheduled. I was incarcerated in 2005 and my children were placed in foster care and adopted. How can I find out where they are and get them back? I have temporary custody of my teenage siblings. I smoke pot but not with them. Can I refuse a drug test, if one is requested? One of my in-law’s was accused of molesting my child and we do not want them to have contact with my child again. How can we ensure this? My mom spends most of her time drinking at bars. As an adult, am I able to gain custody of my younger sister? I live in Texas. CPS recently placed my nephew in my mothers custody. His mother signed away her rights and now my nephew is ward of the state. My nephew’s brother as lived with my mom since he was born. He is now 8 years old. If CPS made her sign her rights away what happens to the siblings??? She also has another son that lives with her aunt, they have had him since he was born and he is now 10. Does she still have rights to her other two boys? My niece is 15 years old and nine months pregnant. Her mother for the past three years has consistently kicked my niece out after arguments, not caring where she stayed, and my family has tried to help by taking her in. Yet, this last time, she stayed with her boyfriend for three months and then got pregnant while living there. When our family found out about this we called Child Protective Services as my niece had been living with these people since conception through her sixth month of pregnancy. We have been in contact with the Case Worker investigating the case but we are afraid that because of her age and her mother’s consent to let her continue living with her boyfriend (though she is underage and that is illegal) there is nothing we can do. Is there any legal measure we can take to ensure that CPS will follow through with the neglect and abandonment of my niece by her mother? What recommendations do you have for someone whose spouse was arrested during her 6th month of pregnancy, stayed 2 days in jail due to her BAC of .247 (determined by her visit from jail to the local hospital) and later charged with 3rd degree assault followed by probation. ubsequently the mother went on a trip to visit relatives promising to return in one week. One and one-half years later she has now filed for divorce. She was asked repeatedly to come back home to no avail, and even denied visitation until recently when the court ordered visitation times. The child is behind in speech, development and not potty trained and just recently learned to start wiping herself. Is this parental kidnapping, child abuse, child neglect, ???? And if so, should charges be filed in the state in which I reside or in the state the mother lives in? What the the minimum and maximum sentence for child abuse? There was a physical abuse of a girl that I know and I was wondering what the penalties for a child abuse can be. I live in Louisiana, my grandchildren live in Florida. They are visiting for the Christmas Holiday and have told me some things that have concerned me. The children have spoken to Child Protection but the step mother always seems to clear the air so to speak. What can be done about this? They are to scared to say any more to any one due to the trouble they get in when they do. After Divorcing, the 3 children, ages 4, 6 and 10 were taken away from the biological mother from Child Protective Services. The father has paid child support through wage garnishment. The biological mother is getting the child support check, but she does not have custody of the children. Is this legal and what can we do about it? My husband and I are trying to adopt an 18 month old girl from my husband’s cousin who is Bipolar. CPS has taken the child away and placed her in foster care. She is a mother that isn’t taking the proper steps to get her child back. We want to know what we are getting into. She’s told me that he has threatened her before, but has never admitted to him actually hitting her. He also has a history of drug abuse and violent behavior. Though I am an outsider to the whole situation, I know she’s trapped and wants out. The oldest son I will call him Greg, just turned 18. Ot his 18th birthday his biological mother threw a party at her home for him. The adults were all drinking liquor and smoking pot. Greg admitted that he was drinking with his biological mom and that she gave drinks to the 14 year old son as well. We have been told by childrens services that it is not illegal for a parent to give alcohol to their child. He (Greg) said that he would be willing to tell all to a judge if we end up in court over this. My fiance was convicted of a sexual assault about 11 years ago. He was 18 and slept with a 14 year old girl. He received a statutory rape charge and served 2 years. Will that charge hinder us from gaining custody or becoming foster parents? Our daughter lives with my ex in Florida. I moved to Canada, and I have her with me in the summer. I want to regain custody of her, as the conditions in Florida are neglectful. What can I do? If an incident occurred at the babysitter’s house with my daughter could they take her children from her? A single mother who in an act of desparation burned old love letters is now facing arson charges and afraid that she will go to jail and her children will go to CPS (child protective services). When child protective services (CPS) gets involved with your family, they wield an immense amount of power in determining what will happen with your children.

I was incarcerated in 2005 and my children were placed in foster care and adopted. How can I find out where they are and get them back? I have temporary custody of my teenage siblings. I smoke pot but not with them. Can I refuse a drug test, if one is requested? One of my in-law’s was accused of molesting my child and we do not want them to have contact with my child again. How can we ensure this? My mom spends most of her time drinking at bars. As an adult, am I able to gain custody of my younger sister? I live in Texas. CPS recently placed my nephew in my mothers custody. His mother signed away her rights and now my nephew is ward of the state. My nephew’s brother as lived with my mom since he was born. He is now 8 years old. If CPS made her sign her rights away what happens to the siblings??? She also has another son that lives with her aunt, they have had him since he was born and he is now 10. Does she still have rights to her other two boys? My niece is 15 years old and nine months pregnant. Her mother for the past three years has consistently kicked my niece out after arguments, not caring where she stayed, and my family has tried to help by taking her in. Yet, this last time, she stayed with her boyfriend for three months and then got pregnant while living there. When our family found out about this we called Child Protective Services as my niece had been living with these people since conception through her sixth month of pregnancy. We have been in contact with the Case Worker investigating the case but we are afraid that because of her age and her mother’s consent to let her continue living with her boyfriend (though she is underage and that is illegal) there is nothing we can do. Is there any legal measure we can take to ensure that CPS will follow through with the neglect and abandonment of my niece by her mother? What recommendations do you have for someone whose spouse was arrested during her 6th month of pregnancy, stayed 2 days in jail due to her BAC of .247 (determined by her visit from jail to the local hospital) and later charged with 3rd degree assault followed by probation. ubsequently the mother went on a trip to visit relatives promising to return in one week. One and one-half years later she has now filed for divorce. She was asked repeatedly to come back home to no avail, and even denied visitation until recently when the court ordered visitation times. The child is behind in speech, development and not potty trained and just recently learned to start wiping herself. Is this parental kidnapping, child abuse, child neglect, ???? And if so, should charges be filed in the state in which I reside or in the state the mother lives in? What the the minimum and maximum sentence for child abuse? There was a physical abuse of a girl that I know and I was wondering what the penalties for a child abuse can be. I live in Louisiana, my grandchildren live in Florida. They are visiting for the Christmas Holiday and have told me some things that have concerned me. The children have spoken to Child Protection but the step mother always seems to clear the air so to speak. What can be done about this? They are to scared to say any more to any one due to the trouble they get in when they do. After Divorcing, the 3 children, ages 4, 6 and 10 were taken away from the biological mother from Child Protective Services. The father has paid child support through wage garnishment. The biological mother is getting the child support check, but she does not have custody of the children. Is this legal and what can we do about it? My husband and I are trying to adopt an 18 month old girl from my husband’s cousin who is Bipolar. CPS has taken the child away and placed her in foster care. She is a mother that isn’t taking the proper steps to get her child back. We want to know what we are getting into. She’s told me that he has threatened her before, but has never admitted to him actually hitting her. He also has a history of drug abuse and violent behavior. Though I am an outsider to the whole situation, I know she’s trapped and wants out. The oldest son I will call him Greg, just turned 18. Ot his 18th birthday his biological mother threw a party at her home for him. The adults were all drinking liquor and smoking pot. Greg admitted that he was drinking with his biological mom and that she gave drinks to the 14 year old son as well. We have been told by childrens services that it is not illegal for a parent to give alcohol to their child. He (Greg) said that he would be willing to tell all to a judge if we end up in court over this. My fiance was convicted of a sexual assault about 11 years ago. He was 18 and slept with a 14 year old girl. He received a statutory rape charge and served 2 years. Will that charge hinder us from gaining custody or becoming foster parents? Our daughter lives with my ex in Florida. I moved to Canada, and I have her with me in the summer. I want to regain custody of her, as the conditions in Florida are neglectful. What can I do? If an incident occurred at the babysitter’s house with my daughter could they take her children from her? A single mother who in an act of desparation burned old love letters is now facing arson charges and afraid that she will go to jail and her children will go to CPS (child protective services). When child protective services (CPS) gets involved with your family, they wield an immense amount of power in determining what will happen with your children.

I’m writing to you with a question in regards to my sister’s three children that have become a ward of the state. Recently my sister has made some bad choices & due to her streak of bad luck that has followed, DCFS has now become involved, having an open case on them. The social worker claims that the children have not been removed from mother, & that her rights have not been taken, but it is now court ordered that they must reside with mom at my home – ”maternal aunt”? I have a question about if a girlfriend should be showering with children. I know it may not be a big deal, but there are other factors involved. My husband and I recently got divorced and have moved on. He has dated a woman for about 9 months now. She has been taking showers with my 3 year old when she is at her dad’s house for visitation. I don’t think it is appropriate for her to be taking showers with our daughter or our 1 year old. A child is in Morris Co. NJ DYFS care, no father listed on birth certificate.

CPS recently placed my nephew in my mothers custody. His mother signed away her rights and now my nephew is ward of the state. My nephew’s brother as lived with my mom since he was born. He is now 8 years old. If CPS made her sign her rights away what happens to the siblings??? She also has another son that lives with her aunt, they have had him since he was born and he is now 10. Does she still have rights to her other two boys? My niece is 15 years old and nine months pregnant. Her mother for the past three years has consistently kicked my niece out after arguments, not caring where she stayed, and my family has tried to help by taking her in. Yet, this last time, she stayed with her boyfriend for three months and then got pregnant while living there. When our family found out about this we called Child Protective Services as my niece had been living with these people since conception through her sixth month of pregnancy. We have been in contact with the Case Worker investigating the case but we are afraid that because of her age and her mother’s consent to let her continue living with her boyfriend (though she is underage and that is illegal) there is nothing we can do. Is there any legal measure we can take to ensure that CPS will follow through with the neglect and abandonment of my niece by her mother? What recommendations do you have for someone whose spouse was arrested during her 6th month of pregnancy, stayed 2 days in jail due to her BAC of .247 (determined by her visit from jail to the local hospital) and later charged with 3rd degree assault followed by probation. ubsequently the mother went on a trip to visit relatives promising to return in one week. One and one-half years later she has now filed for divorce. She was asked repeatedly to come back home to no avail, and even denied visitation until recently when the court ordered visitation times. The child is behind in speech, development and not potty trained and just recently learned to start wiping herself. Is this parental kidnapping, child abuse, child neglect, ???? And if so, should charges be filed in the state in which I reside or in the state the mother lives in? What the the minimum and maximum sentence for child abuse? There was a physical abuse of a girl that I know and I was wondering what the penalties for a child abuse can be. I live in Louisiana, my grandchildren live in Florida. They are visiting for the Christmas Holiday and have told me some things that have concerned me. The children have spoken to Child Protection but the step mother always seems to clear the air so to speak. What can be done about this? They are to scared to say any more to any one due to the trouble they get in when they do. After Divorcing, the 3 children, ages 4, 6 and 10 were taken away from the biological mother from Child Protective Services. The father has paid child support through wage garnishment. The biological mother is getting the child support check, but she does not have custody of the children. Is this legal and what can we do about it? My husband and I are trying to adopt an 18 month old girl from my husband’s cousin who is Bipolar. CPS has taken the child away and placed her in foster care. She is a mother that isn’t taking the proper steps to get her child back. We want to know what we are getting into. She’s told me that he has threatened her before, but has never admitted to him actually hitting her. He also has a history of drug abuse and violent behavior. Though I am an outsider to the whole situation, I know she’s trapped and wants out. The oldest son I will call him Greg, just turned 18. Ot his 18th birthday his biological mother threw a party at her home for him. The adults were all drinking liquor and smoking pot. Greg admitted that he was drinking with his biological mom and that she gave drinks to the 14 year old son as well. We have been told by childrens services that it is not illegal for a parent to give alcohol to their child. He (Greg) said that he would be willing to tell all to a judge if we end up in court over this. My fiance was convicted of a sexual assault about 11 years ago. He was 18 and slept with a 14 year old girl. He received a statutory rape charge and served 2 years. Will that charge hinder us from gaining custody or becoming foster parents? Our daughter lives with my ex in Florida. I moved to Canada, and I have her with me in the summer. I want to regain custody of her, as the conditions in Florida are neglectful. What can I do? If an incident occurred at the babysitter’s house with my daughter could they take her children from her? A single mother who in an act of desparation burned old love letters is now facing arson charges and afraid that she will go to jail and her children will go to CPS (child protective services). When child protective services (CPS) gets involved with your family, they wield an immense amount of power in determining what will happen with your children.

I’m writing to you with a question in regards to my sister’s three children that have become a ward of the state. Recently my sister has made some bad choices & due to her streak of bad luck that has followed, DCFS has now become involved, having an open case on them. The social worker claims that the children have not been removed from mother, & that her rights have not been taken, but it is now court ordered that they must reside with mom at my home – ”maternal aunt”? I have a question about if a girlfriend should be showering with children. I know it may not be a big deal, but there are other factors involved. My husband and I recently got divorced and have moved on. He has dated a woman for about 9 months now. She has been taking showers with my 3 year old when she is at her dad’s house for visitation. I don’t think it is appropriate for her to be taking showers with our daughter or our 1 year old. A child is in Morris Co. NJ DYFS care, no father listed on birth certificate. A man was told he was the father of this child but the mother wanted to wait for paternity testing until she regained custody. Three months later, she has not regained custody. The alleged father calls DYFS, gives them all the information they asked for and is still waiting for the paternity test to be scheduled. I was incarcerated in 2005 and my children were placed in foster care and adopted. How can I find out where they are and get them back? I have temporary custody of my teenage siblings. I smoke pot but not with them. Can I refuse a drug test, if one is requested? One of my in-law’s was accused of molesting my child and we do not want them to have contact with my child again. How can we ensure this? My mom spends most of her time drinking at bars. As an adult, am I able to gain custody of my younger sister? I live in Texas.

Her mother for the past three years has consistently kicked my niece out after arguments, not caring where she stayed, and my family has tried to help by taking her in. Yet, this last time, she stayed with her boyfriend for three months and then got pregnant while living there. When our family found out about this we called Child Protective Services as my niece had been living with these people since conception through her sixth month of pregnancy. We have been in contact with the Case Worker investigating the case but we are afraid that because of her age and her mother’s consent to let her continue living with her boyfriend (though she is underage and that is illegal) there is nothing we can do. Is there any legal measure we can take to ensure that CPS will follow through with the neglect and abandonment of my niece by her mother? What recommendations do you have for someone whose spouse was arrested during her 6th month of pregnancy, stayed 2 days in jail due to her BAC of .247 (determined by her visit from jail to the local hospital) and later charged with 3rd degree assault followed by probation. ubsequently the mother went on a trip to visit relatives promising to return in one week. One and one-half years later she has now filed for divorce. She was asked repeatedly to come back home to no avail, and even denied visitation until recently when the court ordered visitation times. The child is behind in speech, development and not potty trained and just recently learned to start wiping herself. Is this parental kidnapping, child abuse, child neglect, ???? And if so, should charges be filed in the state in which I reside or in the state the mother lives in? What the the minimum and maximum sentence for child abuse? There was a physical abuse of a girl that I know and I was wondering what the penalties for a child abuse can be. I live in Louisiana, my grandchildren live in Florida. They are visiting for the Christmas Holiday and have told me some things that have concerned me. The children have spoken to Child Protection but the step mother always seems to clear the air so to speak. What can be done about this? They are to scared to say any more to any one due to the trouble they get in when they do. After Divorcing, the 3 children, ages 4, 6 and 10 were taken away from the biological mother from Child Protective Services. The father has paid child support through wage garnishment. The biological mother is getting the child support check, but she does not have custody of the children. Is this legal and what can we do about it? My husband and I are trying to adopt an 18 month old girl from my husband’s cousin who is Bipolar. CPS has taken the child away and placed her in foster care. She is a mother that isn’t taking the proper steps to get her child back. We want to know what we are getting into. She’s told me that he has threatened her before, but has never admitted to him actually hitting her. He also has a history of drug abuse and violent behavior. Though I am an outsider to the whole situation, I know she’s trapped and wants out. The oldest son I will call him Greg, just turned 18. Ot his 18th birthday his biological mother threw a party at her home for him. The adults were all drinking liquor and smoking pot. Greg admitted that he was drinking with his biological mom and that she gave drinks to the 14 year old son as well. We have been told by childrens services that it is not illegal for a parent to give alcohol to their child. He (Greg) said that he would be willing to tell all to a judge if we end up in court over this. My fiance was convicted of a sexual assault about 11 years ago. He was 18 and slept with a 14 year old girl. He received a statutory rape charge and served 2 years. Will that charge hinder us from gaining custody or becoming foster parents? Our daughter lives with my ex in Florida. I moved to Canada, and I have her with me in the summer. I want to regain custody of her, as the conditions in Florida are neglectful. What can I do? If an incident occurred at the babysitter’s house with my daughter could they take her children from her? A single mother who in an act of desparation burned old love letters is now facing arson charges and afraid that she will go to jail and her children will go to CPS (child protective services). When child protective services (CPS) gets involved with your family, they wield an immense amount of power in determining what will happen with your children.
