I've been fighting for almost 2 years now against the state of ky to bring my 3 girls home. I am not a druggie nor did I abuse my children. Their father was abusive and I was DETERMINED to keep the family together. When everything between us fell apart after 10 years due to the violence, Social Services didn't believe I had finally left and went to the school and took my 2 oldest. I had a family member take them in but was still lost without my husband for almost a year. This family member who had the kids got ill and couldn't care for them anymore (supposedly) and for some reason took the girls to their daddy instead of giving me some time to get on my feet. He lost custody in the state of KY due to neglect and that he had gotten addicted to drugs and couldn't leave them alone.

What do I do? I've done everything they want but they still want to terminate my rights saying I don't have what the girls need. I'm their mother! I know them better than anyone ever will! What do I do? >?!

You cannot fight CPS without an attorney, it's just not possible, especially with all the circumstances involved in your story.

My advice, get one.

I went through pretty much the same thing and never got mine back until they were 18.
The workers lied up and down against me in ways you would never believe.
They allowed me to have supervised visits and I reassured my kids that I did want them.
The workers used the supervised visits to make up more lies about me
She ignores them and is on the computer while we are there. (In the meantime, what really happened was they discussed other confidential family cases with each other instead of doing the family therapy sessions they were suppose to be doing.
Often I didn't even get my visits because the workers 'had an emergency' (yeah right!).
She throws a bag of Dorito chips at them and calls it dinner.
Etc...

Even when I complied to going to all the classes they went into court and said I didn't go.
When I proved I did they hurried up and said, ''Well, you didn't get anything out of it!''
And then quickly changed the subject instead of asking me what I got out of it.
Hate to sound like N0hope but do hope it works out better for you than it did for me.

The free lawyers they give you are a bad joke because they work in favor of the system and against you.
