CSB has taken my son he is almost 17 Claimed Neglect he is 237 pds 6 foot.
My son is very upset and wants to come home. These people say unless I give them full access to my home and my life he can't come home. Do I have to ? I don't want these people in my business I have never been charged with anything. I had past problems in Texas and got my children back through a jury trial. Ohio just says they don't have jury trials and I should not have gotten my children from Texas. I have never been in trouble for anything do not drink no drugs. They just consently harrass me. My son is threating to run away from placement. He is saying he wants to go home. I don't know what to do.
Working with these type of people always makes it worse they just find something wrong with everything. Legally can I put a stop to their harassment? Akron Ohio

There are a lot of questions surrounding this situation. What is the reason they are giving for taking the child? Is there more than one child? Neglect can constitute many things including medical, educational, physical. What was reason Texas took child? Not being in trouble with the law isn't the issue here. They are focusing on the child. Ultimately, they are going to be in your business until the child is over 18 or you have no rights to child or they are satisfied that everything is OK. As long as you have any child under 18 they will be active if they feel there is a reason. My heart goes out to you as I know how difficult having child welfare involved in your life can be... Unfortunately, you have no choice but to play ball. Of course, getting an attorney is definitely recommended.

If you want your son back then you need to do whatever they ask you to do! While I admit that it can feel like they have their noses up your a$$ every time you turn around, the best way to show them that you are a good mom and don't neglect your child(ren) is to allow them into the home if they want it, go to counselling if they ask it, even kiss their butts if they ask it. THAT is how you show that you have the best interest of your child at heart!

I wouldn't like it, but I can tell you this... if it was my child who was removed, I wouldn't think twice about inviting them into my home 24/7 if that was what it would take to have my son at home. They have to be careful... a child's life is at stake! I'd far rather that, than they NOT watch out for him.

If you allow them open access and they find things 'wrong' then you work at making them better. Your main priority should be to get that boy home. I understand that this is stressful for you, but oh, my God, just think how this entire situation is affecting him!

I hope this helps.

Hugs, Didi

Hello pami:

Laying down for them and kissing their butt is one way to handle this situation. It isn't how I would handle it, though.

I hate bureacrats. I'll NEVER kiss their butt. I'll hire a lawyer who will make them kiss MY butt. That's the way it was designed. They work for you and me, and I'll be the one to remind them of that fact.

Hire a lawyer, and go kick a$$.
