If they know where you are, yes. You can always request a placement hearing for temporary custody of the children. It depends how far the case has gone, how far along the mother is in her case plan and how aggressive you were to get the children into your home upon finding out about the matter. If you snooze, you may loose. You can speak to the State about the facts and how the mother is doing in her case plan (plan to fix the problem, drug treatment, parenting classes, battery intervention training and the like). You may still have a chance. GOOD LUCK
In matters of Children being removed from the home, SRS stands for Social and Rehabilitational Services. It is a Federally run organization in each state that takes care of TANF, Food Stamps, Medicaid, and Child Protective Services. They do several things that involve the well being of children.
This practice will have the child immediately removed from the next room, courtesy of child protective services.
What would seemingly require a very basic answer is actually a very controversial question. Some say that child protective services remove children from their homes, often against their will, split families apart, and pry into business that is not their own. They even have 'quotas' that they should try and meet regarding how many children they should take away. Others say that CPS do a necessary job to try and rescue children from abusive or dangerous situations, that they may give them a chance at doing something successful in the future. Both are true. It really depends on the people that work for Child Protective Services. Nevertheless, if a child can be safely kept with their family, they will undoubtedly be psychologically healthier in the long term than a child who is removed from that family.
If you have been removed from your parents by Child Protective Services, and placed into foster care, then you are a ward of the state. Also, if the child is removed from the parent's custody and placed in juvenile detention, then the child is a ward of the state.You can also be a ward of the state in some situations due to mental health issues, but since you put this under children and the law, I'm assuming you are asking about how a child is a ward of the state.
If you are not happy with this, then tell the parent you are not happy with this and ask them to come and collect their children. If there is no response to this request , contact you local social services department (or the police) and tell them the children have been abandoned by their parents and that you no longer want to take responsibility for them. You will have to be very firm regarding a date on which they must be removed from your house/keeping.
Not much, sadly. Child Protective Services (CPS) May Not be the Best or Worst call. If the authorities are notified of child abuse, Child Protective Services can do an investigation. If evidence is produced, the children will be removed from home and sent into the "system" then the children will soon be with a foster parent/s. The children will not necessarily stay together (foster parent/s maybe other family members of the children or complete strangers) depending on if any other family members have gone to court to fight for the children. However, CPS doesn't necessarily care about the well being of the children, they just have a job to do. So, Either way, this may or may NOT be a safer way out for the children.Love, Faith, Prayer and you!
The answer is not in the number of children that have been removed by social services; but rather how well you are taking care of any child in your care. If social services determines that you still have not mastered the basics of child care, then they will continue to remove children from your care.
