|
Uh oh......what has happened?
|
|
|
|
This can't be good. But share with us anyway. Vent if you need to.
|
|
|
|
Depends???

my fiance's daughter's mother was found guilty of child abuse by DHS and they are going to do an evaluation and replace his daughter with her mother the one who burnt her with a ciggerete
|
|
|
|
Ok, hang on.
Your future step daughter was removed from her mother's house, because of abuse....I got that bit, then what is being replaced by who? |
|
|
|
DHS is doing an evaulation and put his daughter back with her mother
|
|
|
|
ok.. so she was found guilty but will still have custody...
is that right? |
|
|
|
I think there are laws or lawyers that can stop that if the child is in real danger! Check you local laws!
|
|
|
|
Any right to appeal???
Does his daughter have her own representatio? And is the father of the child in a position to go for full custody? How old is the child? |
|
|
|
the daughter is four years old and we are trying to get full custody but might be changing lawyers
|
|
|
|
Was it intentional abuse or an accedent? And by no means should the child be in her custody during an evaluation, if nessary!
|
|

Unfortunately, this is not uncommon. Trouble is, we live in such a litigious society, it warps everything. If DHS doesn't cover their a** in a VERY significant way, Mommy could sue them. The moral of my story is, if you're thinking about suing somebody, save a kid and don't do it.

a ciggerette burn on top of her right wrist. and bite marks from her younger brother and unexplained bruses
|
|
|
|
we don't want to sue we want his daughter to be out of harms way and to be in a safe clean loving environment
|
|
|
|
Sorry, if I thought for one second my children were in an abusive situation I would not stand idle! I would have to be restrained. But I would have to know it was intentional abuse for a fact.
|
|
|
|
you should get a lawyer and not a court appointed one either..
|
|
|
|
it matched a ciggerette burn like they intended to burn her and the doctor said the same thing
|
|
|
|
it is a distrist attourny that he has right now
|
|
|
|
and like u said.. she was found guilty right??
find some other things that make her an unfit mother and go for guardianship.. or possibly talk the mother into guardianship too many stories now a days about mothers killing their kids.. dont need another one, for sure! |
