Our grandchildren were taken away from our son and daughter-in-law by CPS because of domestic violence and drug abuse 9 months ago. There are three boys, one who is in foster care (the youngest) and two who live with their mother's mother. Their father (our son) is living with his birth mother in a 2 bedroom apt, and their mother has been through rehab and now is in a sober living home. Our son has no job and his mother (whom he lives with) is on medical leave, soon to lose her job. We have been told that the court will soon be giving the youngest son back to his father. We feel that they are premature in trying to reunite them because our son shows know signs of being able to be responsible enough in the raising his son. Our son has had a history of drug abuse and anger problems that date back 5 years. Just because he has completed a series of (less than ten) urine tests in a 3 month period, and completed some parenting and anger management classes; in our opinion does not make him ready to care for our grandson. How can we stop this from happening, and what options do we have as grandparents? There is alot more to this story, but this is the latest in what has led us to seek information as to what we can do!
