My Friends children were abused again. CPS was called on Thursday and they haven't showed up? ?
He called them at 10pm and was told they would be out sometime Friday and they never showed up. 3 of the children have imprints of a hairbrush on different parts of their body. The oldest, between her shoulder blades, the other 2 on their arms and the 3 year old has a bruise on his shin an says that mommy kicked him. Her apartment is digusting and smells of rot and p**p. Why isn't the system working????? I thought CPS was supposed to help children not ignore them. It pisses me off that no one is doing anything to help these children. Their mother also refuses to get them into counseling, which they need and refuses to give their father the insurance cards to take them there himself. DSS told him he cannot get the cards and won't even tell him who their social worker is. He's at his wits end and can't get anywhere. His lawyer is giving him the run around also and everyone tells him that something drastic has to happen for basically anything to happen. It's not fair. Any advice? Any legal advice, ANYTHING Please!! I'm helpless as to what I can even do.
