You don't know me, this is my first time posting on this platform.
I came across your posts about CPS quite by accident. I was looking at pictures of cats! But I've had my nightmare with these people and I hate to scare you but they won. I ended up losing my daughter to her father who was at the time a drunk with several recent DUI's against him, was a 2X convicted felon, AND who's been shot by the police for aiming a gun at them. He'd also been in and out of mental wards. One who doesn't know about these people would have to be thinking, "geez, how bad were you that he was the better option?" That's got nothing to do with it, as a matter of fact CPS was grasping for anything they could get and ordered psych evaluations on both of us. The psychologist testified that I was the better parent and should have my medically fragile daughter returned to me. This has nothing to do with what's best for the child. It's got everything to do with them doing exactly what they want to do with little regard for the child and 0 accountability. In short, they do what they want how they want when they want.
I'm not going into my ordeal it's really irrelevant to your situation and was 13 years ago. I will say that it happened because I managed to piss the social worker off.
Anyways the reason I wrote to you was to tell you to get a police scanner app. You'll know when they're coming. That is if they think there will be trouble OR if they're coming to take your kids. Broadcastify works great and works on PC and it has a mobile app. Here in Ohio they go to people's houses at 11:00 P. M. it's ridiculous but I hear the calls come across all the time. Most are well after 9.
Here's another thing, I wouldn't give them anything without a court order. Not a urine screen no pill counts - NOTHING. Unless you or your husband has a drug charge or you admitted to a drug problem there's no reason for it. I'm going to tell you something else and I'm sorry to scare you but they LOVE to (it's a favorite tactic of theirs) to create a situation where you have to choose between your children and your husband. They will determine that he's "unfit" and you will have to get rid of your children's father. At that point you are unable to provide appropriately for those children and often they end up taking them anyways. I'm not trying to scare you, but I've seen them do this a million times.
Be careful my dear, I'm so sorry.
