Dealing with family court having to do with CPS
2 years ago I became involved with CPS shortly having a pregnancy of a child that died. The child died from a birth defect that is so uncommon and causes so many differwent effects that it does not even have it's own name. CPS came involved shortly after due to my boyfriend, now husband, was given a DUI with child endangerment. He did not get pulled over. I was actually the one that was driving and had not drank anything. I slide on wet pavement into someone's yard. CPS told me that if I went to court with him and explained to the judge that I was the one driving that they would take my kids and since then they've been on me about every little thing. I don't do drugs, hit my kids, I was living at my parents, paying rent and providing food not just for my kids and I but also for my parents. Since then I have moved out and into 2 different homes because they told me to. They had also said that if I gave guardianship to someone that they would have to leave us alone, and that we would have the right to stop it at anytime, even my own attorney told me that. We had made a plan to stop guardianship within 3 monthes. When 3 monthes came up we couldn't stop it because they had already taken jurisdiction. To make a long story short they are ruining our lives and causing my kids emotional harm. I would like to know how I can prove that to the court. I am currently waiting for my trial with the court and feel like I don't know how to defend against what they are saying because all they are saying is purely hear-say. It has been brought up into court by the judge several times that he does not want to hear he said/ she said. Is there anything that I can do to help my situation? My attorney refuses to let me say anything with the idea that I may say the wrong things. CPS is saying that they have offered services which they did not and the services that they told me to do, parenting classes, I had to personally pay for. I was seeing my own therapist at 1 point but then they assigned me a different 1 and she was not helpful and only tried to gather information and take wjhat I said out of context and represented everything wrongly. I had anxiety when she was seeing me but she never diagnosed me with it and never did any treatment. I am having my OB as a witness since he was the 1st person to daignose me since it was due to the pregnancy and the way the pregnancy was changing my chemicals. I no longer have anxiety and am missing a lot of my memory. I would like any helpful information or something, anything to help.
Thank you very much.
