      <description><![CDATA[mercedes fuertes, Philadelphia, United States of America<p>Hello! my name is Mercedes and I&#039;m a mother of seven beautiful children for the past two years I&#039;ve been fighting the Department of Human Services to return my children back to me. The agency that I&#039;m under words worth have been committing Crime After Crime I don&#039;t see my children these people forcefully made my children write letters saying they don&#039;t want to see me or each other they even institutionalize my children and they  sedating them without my consent I let the courts know that my children are being abused by the resource parents. And the lawyer that I have that&#039;s court appointed knows all of this he failed to tell the judge. They have no proof of me being mentally unstable or unfit I&#039;m not a drug addict I&#039;m not a prostitute I&#039;m not an alcoholic they have no proof of me abusing my children because I don&#039;t abuse my children. But yet they managed to take all 7 of my children from my care. Something has to give I need help..</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ms Denise Wheeler, Longbeach, California, United States of America<p>My target comment is WHY. My very same situation seems one, in which, others experience.  My granddaughter was detained by social workers who blatantly mishandled her case.  Gave her back without filing papers to have her legally returned home.  Then detained her once again.  Social workers continually mishandle cases with disregard for family reunification.  They claim to want  reunification of families.  While in all reality they set families up for failure, as well as, false hope of reuniting child with family.  Documented over and over how quickly child is adopted out to strangers, which is encouraged by social workers.  This is an blatant act of indifference, disregard for child&#039;s human right, to be with their own family.  I continue on targeting the lack of ethics, as well as, social injustice social workers openly displays.  Know one questions their wide spread use in mishandling of cases, misuse of power.  Adoption of any child who has family, willing and able to care for and raise them is a corrupt, incompetent act initiated and carried out by social workers and their department.  Social workers mishandling of cases make way for system clinch, more so system failure.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Sandra Pereira, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States of America<p>My children were wrongfully put into DHS custody based on a list of false/slanderous allegations composed by my APM/CUA caseworker and her superviser as a direct result of a complaint I made about my caseworker in regards to my case being kept open due to financial instability and a feeling of personal bias and descrimination from the caseworker over my relationship with my boyfriend. The worker and supervisor hosted an unauthorized meeting on November 12, 2013 between themselves, my boyfriend, and I, where we were told that we were *GOING* to lose our children. The supervisor also told me in very plain terms, with much attitude, that I&#039;ve got a lot of mouth and that may work for me in some situations but not in this situation and not with her. Then went on to inform me that my mouth (meaning my complaints) got me into this situation and would now cost me my children. This meeting took place 10 days before my children were taken from me on November 22, 2013 at a very one-sided hearing in which I did not get an opportunity to speak or present any evidence on my behalf.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ms Lorraine Zeno, philadelphia, pa, United States of America<p>Everyday that goes by increases the number of times  my rights as well as my son&#039;s rights have been violated by DHS. That number only increases by the attempts to cover their deliberate and unlawful actions as stated in the Constitution as well as the handbook they claim to follow. Seizing my child without conducting any investigation as well as violating their own court procedures as stated in their handbook continues to negatively impact my family. A picture of perfect health, love and no evident danger fom his mother, a single parent,  and in 3 months given total 4 hours visitation and even less communication is a crime in itself. Where are my rights and when is this going to end?  There are more devastating problems caused by DHS/CPS deliberate ignorance and non compliance with the law.</p>]]></description>

In 2003 we were given back to our mother, all of us except for our sister Camella. She was given up for adoption by CPS behind our mothers back.<br />
And now they are trying to do the same to me here in california with my son that I have recently given birth July 15, 2013..... this black market for children needs to end.... enough is enough..... children are not property that can be sold off.... children are people too</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ms Cherezz Ware, Chicago, cook, United States of America<p>Dcfs targeted my entire family when I was a child and took each one of us one by one, and I was the last to go.... though I do know that my parents were abusive, I know for a fact that my aunts were not, I used to stay with them when my own mom ran off and not once did they ever let me or their own children meet harm, and though we lived on welfare we were well taken care of because we took care of each other in the gang infested project high rises we were forced to live in. When my cousins were taken I knew it was for no reason, as the oldest I had common sense. I knew we were targeted because of our race, and where we lived. Though we had no choice, we did not become products of our environment. I am a mother now of a child of my own. I have vowed to meet death myself before I let my child meet harm or Dcfs. Something must be done! If this is how state and federal government force people on welfare or in poverty to live, then they are hypocrites themselves. We do the best we can with the resources u provide us,which is many. I pray God this petition passes and stands</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mrs Vanessa Pruitt, Hastings, Nebraska, United States of America<p>I am tired of seeing children taken from families instead of services being offered. Forcing families to open voluntary case plans and/or lose their children does not help families. Helping families to gain housing, rehab, temporary income, jobs, etc does.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mrs. Pamela Aldridge, Salem, VA<p>My sister and brother-in-law who have very respectable positions in their community have filed to adopt my Granddaughter. This would be the best thing for my Granddaughter. It would be a VA to FL adoption. For the past yr my sister has done everything VA requested and had a Great home study, back ground, etc. Roanoke City Social Services have told us all yr they are glad Cassie will be going to a family member. Out of the blue my sister received a letter of denial that stated she and her husband could not meet the special needs of Cassie. They are more than capable and have been very excited to be able to provide a home for Cassie. Over the yrs Lawyer fees have been a tremendous drain on me and I no longer have the ability to financially fight for my firstborn Grandchild.Cassie&#039;s 3 brothers remain with her mother and step-father. Besides Cassie I have her three brothers and 2 other granddaughters as well as 6 step-grandchildren that I am very close to. They are all at home where they should be. What can I do to stop Roanoke, VA Social Services from adoptinh Cassie to an unknown family?</p>]]></description>

I work 36 hrs a week in Aurora as a special ed aide, have not received any help at all from DCFS. WHY?????</p>]]></description>

My case was shuffled through multible judges, case workers &amp; organiztions, as well as delayed by the court system for years. After attemping to replace my court apponited attorney, she had my children permently placed. I had to wait 1 yr before I could have it reopened. 2007-present, why?</p>]]></description>

They should be helping families in need not creating more dire situations for families.  I cannot believe how DCFS is taking over the raising of our children.  I am a parent, and sometimes I doubt myself if the discipline I am giving my children is the correct one.  Give us back our Rights!!!!</p>]]></description>

He has some medical issues: failure to thrive, global developmental delays and  difficulty gaining and maintaining his weight. He was placed in foster care,first with a foster parent in Los Angeles, then he was placed with my sister, who was supposedly going to help us have us have him returned to our custody. Instead she turned against us and worked along with DCFS! Even after completing our case plan, our parental rights were terminated.</p>]]></description>
