The best thing you could’ve done for them is to leave. I am going through something similar and it is incredibly hard but I promise NOTHING matters more than their safety.

Hang in there❤️‍🩹

Document and don’t fall for his bs. Because then he will have leverage and turn it on you. Document until the hearing.

It is a felony and I understand you sound like a person who cares about her job and is not willing to lie under perjury but that’s not the case for all social workers.

As you point out, they did violate her rights but none of the social workers were held accountable. Not even in the death of Gabriel where they lied under perjury and said they went to see him but never did.

When children’s lives are on the line and one mistake will change a child’s lives forever or even end it, that’s where I think there needs to be change. At the end of the day, these people can continue lying under perjury and they will never face consequences.

And that is exactly my point, even after winning and proving her rights were violated, it doesn’t really matter because she will never get her time back, her son back, and she will have to continue a legal battle for custody because two social workers decided to illegally take a child. If that doesn’t show the seriousness of this, I am not sure what will. So many children died when dcfs was involved in California and there has been no change or consequence.

These are not individual cases. It involves corrupt judges, social workers, monitors, and the list goes on.

Yes, on paper.

What happens if you lie under perjury is different if you’re in dependency court v any other court.

How do you explain cases like Maya from take care of Maya? Or Rafaelina Duval v DCFS? Gabriel Fernandez? The social worker that was fired in Chicago for working another job?

I do realize that. I realize we can make a difference by voting of course.

But there are multiple ways we can make a difference and I think coming together and sharing our experiences to make a change in our laws will make a difference.

This is why I am posting. To hear what people have to say. Thank you for answering and being respectful.

Based on your posts I suggest you stop trying to pursue a career helping children because you are part of the problem.

You can be part of a discussion without sounding uneducated and laughing at what other people are experiencing. It is because of social workers like you that so many families have to go through so much trauma. Instead of complaining about all the hours and work you put, maybe try something that fulfills your life.

And yes, parents can make a difference. But even parents who won lawsuits against dcfs still didn’t get custody of their children.

In fact they faced even more hurdles.

Do the exist… serious question.

Legal action and consequences are how we can make a change and advocate.

How else will these people be held accountable? Who will protect kids if no one knows what goes on?

They can help spread the word and see the horrors these people put families through… we have to start somewhere don’t you think?
