My step great grand son was killed while he was in foster care.  His foster parents blamed a 4 year old for his death.  The people who defended this man have to be guiltier than he is because he was responsible for watching and protecting the children.  Where was the foster parent when the 4 year old foster child was killing  Dillion?  The foster parent was responsible in anybody’s eyes!! The child protection services were also responsible.  Instead they continue to blame the innocent just like they do when children are taken out of perfectly safe homes.

Yes they do have some abusive practices and they cover up and let those foster parents go free when they harm children including taking their lives!!

I hope that someday Defending Families Corporation can intervene for the children and for the innocent families so they can be protected from Child Protection Services.

This people that call themselves taking care of children really don’t care in whose hands they put our children into.

Sincerely, M.G. F.

One day when my girls were 5 and 7 years old, when I picked them up from school they started asking me strange questions. My 7 year old, started asking what is weed, what is cocaine, and what are drugs? She had no experience with illicit drugs. I asked her why she was asking these questions. Where was this coming from? She told me she and her 56 year old sister were embarrassed at school that day when some people came to school pulled her and her sister out of class and to the counselor’s office. She told me they asked questions like whether lots of men came through our house and whether men stayed the night. My daughter asked me what molest meant. Based on what she said, I suspected Child Protection Services had visited my girls at their school without first notifying me. I called CPS to make a complaint. They admitted they had an open case and that they had interviewed the girls. I found out they had received a report from my son’s step-mom alleging I had no food in the house and that my son had missed school because he did not have clean clothes to wear. I know this is what the report said because later I was able to get a copy of it. My son had missed school because he had scarlet fever. Each day he missed I went to the school and picked up his work. I showed the Child Protection worker my full refrigerator and shelves as well as the closets full of clean clothes and explained to him why my son had missed school. I asked why the worker asked my children about drugs and sex if there was no allegation about that. They worker told me these were “standard questions.” That bothered me a lot. My children’s innocent minds were corrupted by X rated questions even though the questions were not related to the complaint. I complained that they had exposed my children to stuff they did not know. I told them that one day my girls will be exposed to such but not while they are so young. Child Protection had no right to corrupt their young minds. I told them they could not come in my house or approach my children without a court order. Soon, the open case was closed.
