Entry #3: Family And Children Services: Protecting Children and Eliminating the Fit Parents

Family and Children Services or FCS for short, have a job to protect children and analyze the parents to see of they are fit and they can go to court to get their children back. Unfortunately that is not what FCS does, they cause both the child or children and the parents being analyzed stress. Not dis-stress or eustress, bad stress, what FCS does to these people is use the court as a playing board. They make all of the allegations about the people trying to show FCS that they are fit, and are willing to cooperate with them and follow their rules, but what FCS does is continue to make up these false statements about the parents being analyzed. To the people following their rules, they want them to stop with the false accusations and false stories they bring to the judge. We all understand they are trying to protect children from harms way, but they are creating more harm than saving them from it. They just create more problems rather than cooperating with everyone who works with their rules. The kind of stress FCS puts on people that are working cooperatively with them is not a healthy stress, it can cause significant damage to the person’s health. They see that the parent is cooperating with them and doing all the tasks to help earn their child back, but they will not allow that because they do not want people that are fit parents, they look to the people whom see fit, but are not fit at all. An example of this would be parents that smoke and do illegal drugs, but they hide it all when FCS comes around. It is like they have a double life; the first life is doing drugs and distributing them throughout our community, making it toxic and not livable in. The second life is being “clean” and proving to FCS that they are “fit parents” when in reality they are not fit at all. FCS should do more background checks, even criminal checks to see if the parents are legitimate fit to have and raise a child they should also make sure that the parents are in school trying to get their high school diploma so they can have some flow of money coming into the home where the child might be living. In reality, FCS will not do this, all they look at is if the parents being analyzed to make sure they are doing their best to follow FCS rules so they can at least have a chance to win their children, but will make false allegations and also deny they made the allegations. We understand they are not trying to be fare, but causing stress that can have a harmful effect on the child and the parents being analyzed to see if they are fit. This stress does have an effect to their wellness and health, as a college student taking a wellness course, the kind of stress they are putting on the parents and the children is not healthy, it does have an impact on both the parents health and wellness. FCS should be more respectful and have more clear rules that help both benefit the parents being analyzed to see if they are fit to get their children from them and also for FCS to make sure, they make truthful allegations and how the parents are progressing and meeting their criteria, rather than just seeing untruthful allegations about the parents.
