Welcome back and thanks for joining us again for this very important discussion about what CPS can make you do in order to get your children back. It can feel very frustrating to have your family’s togetherness subject to the whims of another person. To know that even if you do everything they ask you to, it may still not be good enough, and you might still have to fight to get your children back.
We understand. Over the decades we’ve helped countless parents work through a system that’s stacked against them, just so they can get their own kids back from the state. In many cases, we’re talking about kids that should never have been taken away from their parents to begin with. But just so that you know what to expect when CPS starts putting requirements on you, here is the rest of the list:
Help For Children With Developmental Delays:
Children with developmental delays or learning disabilities are often at a higher risk of being abused. This is because parents who don’t understand the challenges they’re facing, or simply can’t handle the added stress of dealing with a developmentally delayed child. By providing supports for parents with developmentally delayed children, CPS attempts to ensure that the children are safe and their parents are able to cope with their needs.
Domestic Violence Interventions:
In cases where there is domestic violence in the home, or the risk of domestic violence, CPS will often require that the person accused of putting their family at risk participate in intervention services. This may involve them attending classes for anger management, going to therapy to address their violent tendencies, or simply being removed from the home. Even if the spouse or partner are the victims and not the children, this can still be the case.
Mental Health Assistance:
People with mental health concerns sometimes struggle to provide their children with stable care. In cases where one or both parents are suffering from depression, anxiety, dissociative disorder, and many other mental health conditions, children can become neglected, or simply be too much for the parent to handle. Counseling, medications, and behavioral therapies can help parents to better cope with the challenges of parenting while managing a mental illness.
Job Training/Job Search Assistance:
Lack of work means no income, and no income means no food, no stable housing, inadequate clothing for the season, and many other needs that go unmet. Helping a parent look for and find work can make a big difference in their ability to properly care for their families. It can also help to reduce the extreme stress of financial difficulty, which sometimes contributes to harmful or risky situations.
Not all help is actually helpful!
Parenting is hard, and we could all use a little help along the way. For parents who struggle with substance abuse, anger issues, or even crippling anxiety, the classes CPS offers can make a huge difference. However CPS rarely stops at trying to help you. Once they’ve inserted themselves into your family’s life, they’re extremely hard to get rid of. And the more you try to get rid of them, the more they hang on for dear life!
Here at The Kronzek Firm, we understand that while some of these classes and counseling sessions might be very helpful, CPS prying into your private life is not!
