| | tERMINATION OF PARENTAL RIGHTS What is the name of your state? TX
4 YEARS AGO OUR SON WAS TAKEN BY THE STATE BECAUSE CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES RECIEVED A PHONE CALLED STATEING WE WERE PHYSICALLY AND MEDICALLY ABUSING OUR SON......
THEY GAAVE US A CHANCE TO GET HIM BACK BUT ONLY BY ATTENDING PARENTING CLASSES AND OBTAINING A HOME FOR 6 MONTHS WHICH WE DID AND THEY AGREED TO GIVING US A SECOND CHANCE BUT ON COURT DAY THEY CHANGED THEIR STORIES AND THE JUDGE TERMINATED OUR PARENTAL RIGHTS......
WE ONLY GOT TO VISIT OUR SON FOR 1 HOUR A MONTH DURING ALL OF THIS MESS AND TO THIS DAY HE IS STILL "LOST IN THE SYSTEM" IN A FOSTER HOM AND WE WANT OT GET HIM BACK BECAUSE EVERYTIME HE GOT SICK WE HAD HIOM EITHER A THE EMERGENCY ROOM OR AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE ....

Since its been 4 years since your child was taken, its almost guaranteed that your parental rights have been terminated.
However, you can get a consult with a local attorney to confirm the situation. |
