Fighting CPS 1/14/2013 11:05:10 AM
The purpose of this blog is to provide updates on some of the cases I reported in my book (Fighting CPS: Guilty Until Proven Innocent of Child Protective Services Charges ISBN 9-780-9800061-6-2) that had not been resolved when the book went to press, and to report other cases where CPS is not working up to par. I’d also like to hear about cases in which Child Protective Services did the right thing so those cases can serve as examples of what should be done. Occasionally, I will report helpful tips and web sites with advice on fighting CPS. To comment on this blog, or to tell your story, email Deborah Frontiera at frontiera.fightingcps.deborah.gmail.com
The next post will be on Jan. 21, 2013
Odds and Ends Sent to Me:
Happy New Year to all my readers and thank you for recent comments to my web site.
This is a trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sag37aAf1WU&feature=youtube for a documentary soon to be released. If the link does not work, copy/paste the address into your browser. If was sent to me by a reader of my web site and is shocking, excellent, eye-opener to anyone who has never had any “real” experience with “the system.”

This magazine has excellent resources and links for families and others. There are links to numerous articles and sites within their web site. It is very worth checking out.
From Rights to Reality
A plan for parent advocacy and family-centered child welfare reform
From Rights to Reality is designed to unite parents and parent advocacy around a common set of goals. It identifies 15 rights for parents affected by the child welfare system. Most parents do not yet have these rights in child welfare proceedings. From Rights to Reality represents a commitment to working in our communities and nationwide to make these rights a reality.
More and more information seems to be available these days—almost an explosion against Child Protective Services in many states across the United States. Hopefully, pressure will come to all state agencies to change unjust policies and keep children where they belong—with their families in almost all cases.
And finally for this post:
C. W. R. had the following to say in an email message to my web site:
“When the modern day Nazis first kidnapped my child, she was only three years old. She was pinched on her left cheek by her daycare provider. I took pictures and went to the police station. My sister, who was a CPS worker in another county, told me to report this to CPS in Sacramento, CA. Big mistake. After going to ‘therapy’ sessions, visitations that were sometimes canceled at the last minute, I could no longer work. I sold my car for attorney’s fees, and I lost my house in foreclosure. I was mentally drained and I grieved for my child, not knowing where she was. Finally, after my third lawyer, I got my baby back. She acted like an animal, hiding under furniture and crawling on the floor. I was heartbroken, yet relieved she was back. I lived in fear of their [CPS] return, so I moved to El Dorado Co. in California. When my daughter reached puberty, she went wild. She was 14 and ran away from home constantly. CPS grabbed her again and asked if she wanted to go into a foster home. My daughter, even though I had warned her about the gestapo, shrugged her shoulders. They took this as a yes. ‘Mother unable to stop her child from running away. Mother depressed.’ Those were in the reports. I was actually temporarily separated from my husband and they took advantage of me and the fact that I had fibromyalgia. I was very sick. They took my child and I became much worse. I wasn’t allowed to see her and they made her a ward of the court at 15. She is now almost 18, and they have lured her into Assembly Bill 12 so she can transition for her ‘best wellbeing’ from foster care into adulthood. I am still not allowed to see her, but I do anyway thanks to cell phones and emails. But this is the hard part: CPS has brainwashed my child. She DOES NOT WANT TO COME HOME; she wants to take advantage of everything CPS can offer for her future. I am sick. I cry all the time; she is my only child. She will be [now past] 18 on New Year’s Eve, and she is ready to start a new life. . . . She wears clothes that hide her figure, and she has a hardness to her that she had to develop to protect herself. I have three years worth of stories to tell you. I’m glad you wrote this book. It is all true. Modern Day Nazis must be STOPPED.”
C.R.W., you are in my prayers.
