    Terminating a Father's Parental Rights?
    Hello, I know this statement does not fall under this title, however, I will like to know as a widowed of an adult w/
    Mild cognitive impaired have rights as anyone else, as a citizen of the U.S.? For Instance, my rights were terminated because of, hearsay and false accusssations and so, forth, discrimination.At, this point I have taken care of my son since birth along with my husband(dec). now, however, the point I'm trying to make is what can I do or he do to get my parental rights back? Examining the circumstances which I have learned from other people, lawyers, legal advocacy members, etc, in which all I have been getting is the runarounds, indicating to me that, I am not his guardain, so right there at that point, ground zero. Rightfully, I had gone to court to appeal the petion for him, at the hearing the judge heard my side of the story as, well, as my daughter story, when asked by the judge the questioned;son who do you wanted to live with?. the reply was ;I want to stay with my mother, Null and void, judge never gave him a answer. Even, though a lot things he can do for himself. His (all) physical therapist, physical medicine doctors describe him as, able bodied/high functioning. As, an terrible false pretense me(parent)against his parent, as, well as my son(other) we, have been a victim of circumstances, which details lies and none show cause. Never was charged for any reason, nor my other son.(charged). Adp have came to my home several times, while. I was in the hospital for approximately, one month, wasn't able to go to the first the hearing, because of, hospital, instead my oldest daughter had gone in place for the preliminary hearing. She had indicated to me that ; it had took approximately 4 hours to prepared an hearing for my son and ADP,SocialWorkers and other's involved.(their). Anyway, my reply was that, It shouldn't taken that long, plantiffs were supposed to be ready for this hearing, not getting ready, be ready. The results of the hearing of my son (I was told by my daughter)to remove him from my home and appointed a guardian for my son.As, of now my son has gotten bigger, he supposed to get ongoing therapy for legs and speech, in which he was to get this type of service as, needed, I believe at one time or another; he may he had gotten it,but,of, the distance (20) miles from where I live. It's kind of rough to see my son on everyday basis, even, though, he just started to visited me on a regularly basis. Between those times ,of, not visiting him, we have talked on the telephone, pratically everyday we, had talked on the telephone since day (1). Despite my son supposed not want to go, he has been neglected of not getting physical therapy nor speech to help him stay active and produce high self-estem.Lastly, my son doctors are so, amazed of the disapprove of his well-being of physical therapy, weight gain and etc, his physical medince doctor do not know, whether, he'll have to cast for his legs again, because, of, not receiving the treatment he should be getting. As, a concerned parent, I try tohelp him out much as, I can, even though , I am restless on how many ways, can I make these people pay for my son of being neglected of treatment. It is so tiresome I have never in my life gone through this before, Even, though, I have two other children, which are grown Adults.

    Your son is a minor... he doesn't decide where he goes... the court does... in fact it already has. The ONLY way to have ANY modification made is for the Court to do it, and you will have to petition the court for it, or more like your lawyer will.

    You can say they were hearsay... but the court obviously found merit with them, and they found your claims without merit. That speaks volumes.

    You can play the woe is me and its all lies thing all you want... they didn't buy it before... and they aren't going to listen to it again either unless you can present definitive proof. And since they already ruled... now YOU have to provide the burden of proof.

    First... hire a lawyer... you need someone that's coherent in their thoughts... because sorry to say... this post is awful hard to read as one run-on paragraph. And trust me I tried and tried to read it.

    Your story is very confusing, but you have your full rights, and you had your right in court. You did not win. What you call is not true and not real, was accepted as evidence in court.

    I've read and re read your post and it is unclear. You posted a lot of information except what is really pertinent.

    First, ANY question on law needs to include your general locale as laws vary by area.

    Second, How old is your son? You indicate your son has some sort of disability, but its unclear what.

    Third, why were your rights terminated? Who petitioned to have them terminated? Who is caring for your son now?
