Why are @familyprotection working so hard to collect stories about the Child Protection Service?
This video I have made highlights the severe problems with an organisation known as Child Protection Service(CPS). It includes edits from a 4 hour deposition with the head of a CPS division as well as proven facts and statistics. The information in this movie is very disturbing and highlights the problems that are leading to the daily tragedies of children being removed from their families and home with no due process or any legitimate reasons. Families are being put through great atrocities and injustice, and even if these mistakes are undone, it is often too late as the trauma that children have experienced through being separated from their biological families doesn't just go away.
Please watch this short 4 minute video and see for yourself what is actually going on. The CPS system is unfit for purpose and we need to spread this awareness and bring great change as soon as possible. If you have doubted the stories or accusations being made every day at @familyprotection, please take the time to watch this video so you can be informed.
Please read other stories in the @familyprotection account. Child removal happens every day and everywhere to normal functional families. It could happen to YOU!
My video is at DLive
The town that I live in is TERRIBLE for the number of CPS abuses.
My friends have had encounters with them, and much of it I saw with my own eyes as I tried to help them with their cases.
These events are NOT RARE.
2 months ago I wrote this post that linked to all the personal true stories of CPS or Foster Care injustices by Steemit bloggers that had been posted in the previous 6 months.

There are SO MANY stories already recorded permanently right here on the blockchain.
Thank-you @eco-alex for submitting this post with the #familyprotection tag. It has been UPVOTED by @familyprotection and RESTEEMED TO OUR Community Supporters.
-- "Child Protection Agencies" are taking children away from their loving families. --
......... THESE FAMILIES NEED PROTECTING ........
How can I join this #familyprotection community and what are all the things I need to do to be able to join this community ?. thanks a lot of information.
wow! nice and great post I like this type of post. familyprotection you says realy well.
Well done on doing this video @eco-alex, At the end of the day, families have been torn apart by CPS in Europe and America and else where for no good reasons. These are the families that need support and help in getting their children back, we should not be silent when this happens, just as we should not be silent if we see any type of abuse happening. You are putting your energy into this cause which is fantastic, if everyone else decided to put their energy into other causes that help people then the world would be great. We should be able to highlight the injustices happening with out other people who are not directly involved taking offence. We have voices and we should be using them, this is what community is all about, helping one another and so many have come to @familyprotection looking for that help and support and that is why this video is important.
Lovely comment.. thanks for these WISE WORDS!!! If we all embodied these traits.. what an amazing world it would be for us all!!!
Child protection is the protection of children from violence, exploitation, abuse and neglect. Article 19 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child provides for the protection of children in and out of the home.
Child protection systems are a set of usually government-run services designed to protect children and young people who are underage and to encourage family stability. UNICEF defines[1] a ‘child protection system’ as:
the set of laws, policies, regulations and services needed across all social sectors – especially social welfare, education, health, security and justice – to support prevention and response to protection-related risks. These systems are part of social protection, and extend beyond it. At the level of prevention, their aim includes supporting and strengthening families to reduce social exclusion, and to lower the risk of separation, violence and exploitation. Responsibilities are often spread across government agencies, with services delivered by local authorities, non-State providers, and community groups, making coordination between sectors and levels, including routine referral systems, a necessary component of effective child protection systems.
— United Nations Economic and Social Council (2008), UNICEF Child Protection Strategy, E/ICEF/2008/5/Rev.1, par. 12-13.
Isnt theory wonderful!
Thanks to everyone who has commented, this discussion needs to happen so that we can all understand what is really happening and what changes are needed!
To any doubters or people who question what @familyprotection is about, I have written a post to pick up on the comments and discussion we have been having on this post..

CPS answers to no one. You are guilty until proven innocent and family court is a kangeroo court where you have no rights. The whole system is rotten I always upvote the family protection posts here
I had a neighbor that didn't like me. Tried to use cps as a weapon. My daughter threw a temper tantrum because it was time for bed and 20 minutes later had a cop show up for a well check, and then 2 days later had a cps van show up. Thankfully, since my best friend had just dealt with cps, I knew I didn't have to let them in without a warrant. Never saw them again. Oh, and the neighbor, who tried again to get me into trouble, was given a notice for harassment. I told the cop that I had the right to know who was making the accusations but, if he would kindly inform the nosey Nancy I could press charges with any further false alarms, I would respect the neighbors privacy. No complaints since. Don't put up with anyone's b.s.

Thanks for sharing this! One of the major reasons i made this video is to show people their rights so innocent people can avoid the great drama of going through and battling overzelous CPS agents!
Well I salute you for doing so. Too many get their children ripped away. It's not right.

Growing up poor we were always stressed about CPS ... they've had a terrible reputation for doing this kind of stuff for decades. It's sad how gross these systems have really become.
yes nick.. it is time for reform of CPS and major changes are needed. Families need support not harassment.. Today people are criminalised just for being poor.. and the only reason people are poor is because the whole system is slanted to ensure that happens and continues .. ugh!
CPS needs transformation, alteration, modification as they want to say, Today people are criminalized just for being poor and that is the saddest thing in the world
CPS is a racket. They are not about protecting children they are about collecting money.
