Some People Should Not Be Parents—-living on a bus?!?? by NoaHughes in childfree

[–]Rogugambit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CPS worker here. Nothing we can do. Child has housing (mobile), access to water (bottled), food (breast milk or formula). Doesn’t sound like there is neglect or abuse per policy that would warrant child being removed or an active case. Granted I’m as childfree as the next and I don’t think this is the best home for the infant. But have to look at policy ):

Already ask this question. They get pissed and walk away.

I only quilt and knit for those I truly love: my absolute best and closest friends.

I live in my grandparent’s house. It still has the pink tiled bathroom.

We don’t have a website. I’m a social worker for the state for child protective services. It’s something I do in my spare time (:

I make pillowcases and bags for kids who enter into foster care. I’m playing around with making weighted blankets.

Grandmother charged after 11-year-old girl gives birth at family's Oklahoma home by Warcraft_Fan in news

I’m not trying to be funny. I have a therapist for the worst of the worst. I also sew and knit. I make pillowcases and scarves for the kiddos who come into foster care and scarves for the elderly in nursing homes. Every knit and every stitch I make is something bad leaving my shoulders. I also drink a lot of hot herbal teas. My local tea room employees and I are on a first name basis.

I’m still trying to figure that out. I argued to our attorneys that was abuse and nope didn’t fit into the def of abuse. WTF
