MassOutrage | Why Can the State Kidnap Your Child?

ɱᎯȘȘ ΘƲτરᎯĢε!!!! Welcome to my world! The founders never DREAMED that a state agency would one day come into homes and kidnap children. I never imagined such CORRUPTION existed! WHY CAN'T ANYONE STOP DCF? DCF committed perjury in such a heinous way about ME in order to remove my grandson from my home so they could profit $$$ by placing him in a shelter and continue fueling their egos by abusing their power!  I'm still in total disbelief!!!! Parents are powerless over a 'system' that was put in place to PROTECT CHILDREN from abusive homes, yet they are the ones inflicting TRAUMA AND ABUSE by STEALING children who are in stable, loving homes! #JusticeForBraeden 

This article may pertain to Massachusetts but is happening across the United States...  World!  I have talked to parents who have had their children being taken wrongfully away in England and Switzerland.  I moved to Florida to find some peace after retiring from Verizon Communications and was the only sole provider to raise both my children without the help of anyone else.

Why Can the State Kidnap Your Child?

DCF is completely in control. Even judges can't rein them in.

The founders never DREAMED that a state agency would one day come into homes and kidnap children.

I. Why Can't Anyone Stop DCF?

If everyone knows that the Massachusetts Dept. of Children and Families (DCF)is out of control, why can't they be reined in and told to behave? This is one of the dirtiest and least known secrets of how the DCF is able to destroy so many families, and the source of their power: DCF is in control, not the courts. It must be nice to answer to no one, knowing you cannot be punished, cannot be sued, cannot be accountable for the trauma you perpetrate, both on purpose and by mistake.

Ever since the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court decided two cases back in 1995, Care and Protection of Isaac, 419 Mass. 602 (1995) and Care and Protection of Jeremy, 419 Mass. 616 (1995), the DCF has had almost complete control of all children in its custody. A judge will only interfere if DCF is committing what is ridiculously called an "abuse of discretion."

When does DCF abuse its "discretion" enough for a court to step in and stop them?

Generally, never. The Courts have become rubber stamps for DCF. Death, torture, broken bones, bruises, wounds, medical neglect, and other 'minor' problems caused by DCF do not seem to bother courts very much. However, if the parents pray, spank, or yell at the child, then they will authorize the DCF to take your children and give them to a family who cannot be told not to abuse them. Foster parents and DCF approved programs and institutions can usually abuse children at will, often with no consequences whatsoever. As long as it's their guy doing the abusing, nothing will happen.

Not only will a court refuse to stop DCF caretakers from abusing children, it will usually not mind if DCF is falsifying records, committing perjury, taking children on false pretenses, illegally stretching out a case for years, or demanding that a wife commit perjury by getting a false restraining order against the husband.

In other words, DCF is accountable to no one, and no one can stop them, unless the state legislature or a higher court steps in and changes the state of the law.

Well, can't I sue them?

As with all things in the strange world of "child protection", the DCF has been given a gift of protection from lawsuits, called "qualified immunity". That is a fancy name for being lawsuit-proof in most cases. Right now, until someone succeeds in getting a court to change the situation, DCF agents are immune from suits for all "discretionary" decisions. Our federal civil rights laws state that ANY PERSON who deprives someone of a right is liable. Our courts say, "horsefeathers", those nice DCF abusers are above the law, as are GALs, DCF lawyers, court investigators, and the judge, too. In other words, anyone from the government can abuse your kids and get away with it.

"Discretion" is when they decide to do just about anything they want: to kidnap your child from you, to keep your child, to adopt your child out, to hurt your child, to emotionally manipulate your child, to stop your child from hugging you at visits, or just about anything else. Only when they violate a "clearly established" constitutional right can they be sued. That is almost never.

It is ridiculous, but the courts have continually protected foolish and biased social workers from any liability for wrongdoing. We are going to try to change this.

What are "clearly established" constitutional rights?

Technically, they are rights specifically listed as being protected in the Massachusetts or federal constitutions, such as the right to free speech, or the right to bear arms.

Parental rights are not specifically listed in the either the state or federal constitutions. No one 200 years ago ever dreamed that government would interfere in families, so they didn't protect parental rights in the constitutions, state or federal. It would have been unthinkable to have a state agency to break into homes and kidnap children.

However, parental rights are now called "reserved powers", which means that any power not specifically given to the government by the constitution belongs to the people under the Ninth Amendment to the Constitution (Bet you never heard that one!) All powers, including parental rights, which are not mentioned in the Constitution, are kept by the people under the 9th and 10th Amendments.

Because most courts now operate more by a political agenda than by the law, they will often only protect 'enumerated', or listed rights, except for ones THEY would like to add, like gay marriage. However, the constitution is not supposed to work that way. All rights are yours by natural divine law. The constitution does not create rights, but only binds down the government from interfering with them. The Massachusetts and Federal constitutions list several rights as examples in the Bill of Rights, and then basically say that if we forgot any others, they are protected, too.

However, most judges now believe that the government creates and grants rights, rather than preserves existing rights that are bestowed by our creator, and which cannot be taken away. Thus, they will ignore your parental rights if it suits them.

Judges often merely explain rights away if they do not favor them politically, as they have done with gun rights, for example. They treat the rights protected under the constitution like an accordion - they expand certain ones that are in political favor, and contract others that are not politically correct.

Do parents have ANY rights?

Not really. The problem is that our founders never dreamed that anyone would ever think of intruding into families, so they did not write specific protections into our state and federal constitutions. They assumed family government would exist peacefully alongside state and church government. Now, when the rights of parents to raise children are being challenged, there is little protection available from courts against the savage predators in the DSS.

A parents' right to direct the upbringing of their children was never questioned until recently. Now, the state sees itself as the parent, and they let you have temporary custody of your own child, unless and until you do something the state doesn't like - then the child goes back to its true parent - the state. There is even a Latin lawyer term for this: Parens Patriae, which means, "father of his country". The Real Life Dictionary of the Law defines parens patriae as: "the doctrine that the government is the ultimate guardian of all people under a disability, especially children, whose care is only entrusted to their parents."

Are you getting this? The state now owns your children, and entrusts you with them, until you do something politically incorrect, like home school them, spank them, pray with them, or otherwise try to keep them out of the hands of those who want to make them into obedient world citizens.

You have told me all that I CAN'T do. Is there anything I CAN do?

Yes, but there are no easy answers. Read on.

II. THE GRIZZLY BEAR

(Adapted from material written by Attorney Mike Humiston at NationalOutrage.org)

A grizzly is a dangerous creature. They are arbitrary, vicious, and they are not afraid of you. Sound familiar? If you encounter one in the wild, you must be very careful...

Should I throw sticks and rocks and scream at him?

Only if you want him to kill you.

Then I should turn and run, real fast...

Only if you can run very, very fast.

Then what should I do?

Stand firm, don't show any signs of fear or anger, then carefully, quietly, back away.

The grizzly is the child protection system...

But I thought somebody else's government was the Great Bear...

Indeed. Always be polite when dealing with caseworkers and the police. Always, always!

Why?

Because the police carry guns, for crying out loud! And because you are dealing with terrorists, and they have your children. If you argue with the caseworker or the judge, you will only antagonize them. Nothing you say is going to change their minds or make them quit twisting your words. So don't try. Don't give them words to twist. There's no use throwing sticks and stones at the grizzly.

What about running away?

If you can do so legally, then do so. If the state has legal custody of your children, it is illegal to take them and leave. If you're going to break the law, then as with the grizzly, you better be able to run pretty far pretty fast. There are people sitting in prison at this moment for "kidnapping" their own children.

Are you telling me to give up?

Absolutely not! We're telling you to be smart. Know your rights and control the flow of information, but do it with a smile on your face and with total graciousness. "I'm sure this service plan is okay, but I'd just like to have my attorney go over it before I sign it. I believe you when you tell me they're just routine, so I'm sure you don't mind if he just has a look before I sign." Remember, the guy who tells you don't need an attorney is the guy who has something to hide. Just because their forms are "routine" does not make them right.

III. WHAT A PARENT CAN DO TO FIGHT FALSE ALLEGATIONS OF ABUSE.

Unfortunately, you cannot do as much as you would really like to do to fight DCF yourself, except to AVOID doing the wrong things. You can learn about many of those wrong things, and about DCF dirty tricks, on this MassOutrage web site, and the linked sites. However, even if you learned it all, that is only the beginning.

Knowing the things you can learn here, simply doesn't give you the whole scope of the process. Courts and lawyers have made it so complicated (probably to keep a lot of their buddies employed) that very few people even inside the system completely understand the process and all its legal requirements.

In sum, fighting DCF is so hard, so technical, and there are so many pitfalls, that you are better off to work with a good lawyer rather than try it yourself. There is just so much to fighting one of these cases, that it is about like doing brain surgery on yourself to try it alone.

So... .

Get a good lawyer.

The single biggest ingredient in fighting the DCF menace is to get a good lawyer. What is a good lawyer? Here is the list of qualities I would look for:

Hates the DCF;

Committed to parental rights over government power;

Knows the DCF law, regulations and policies;

Will stand up to DCF social workers and judges, not collaborate with them;

Is YOUR lawyer only, and is not being paid by the state;

Will work with, not against, your spouse's lawyer to get your kids back, if appropriate;

Respects you;

Respects the Constitution and other founding documents;

Does not think lawyers are God, and will work WITH you, not talk down to you;

You trust him and he trusts you. You are both going to take a blindfolded walk down the plank in the dark, so you better trust each other.

Work with your lawyer.

The most important thing you can do to get your children back, in addition to avoiding falling into any of the DCF dirty tricks, is work with your lawyer to help him or her get your kids back. How?

You can help review the DCF record, which is very tedious, to look for any evidence you can use against DCF. You can make a chronology, or a time line of all the major events so far, so that the lawyer can get a clear overview of your case. You can pay the poor guy, so he can endure the endless days and nights of attention to your case. You can be patient with the delays, knowing that it is not your lawyer, but DCF and the Court, who have caused them.

You can do everything he tells you in the way of counseling or drug testing or parenting classes, so that he can go back to DCF and report that you have been a good little boy or girl. You can clean up your act, if it isn't: Straighten up your house, your heart, and your life.

You can attend every visitation that your child's kidnappers allow, without fail, even though they will cancel the visits any time they feel like it for any selfish reason. (Irony - they often cancel to care for their own child). You can smile (though gritted teeth) at your child's captors, and work with them. Never, never show your anger, even though the social worker may deserve to fry in the lowest part of Hell.

Listen to your lawyer. Trust your lawyer. If you can't, get a new one. Even if you have a state appointed lawyer, due to lack of finances, fire him if he does not work for you. If he is laughing it up with DCF, fire him. Many lawyers who do this work actually like DCF because they get a lot of work from it. Me - I'd be very happy to be put out of the DCF business tomorrow, if they were abolished.

IV. ANY MORE ADVICE?

What about the Government School? Can they get my children there?

They sure can. In fact, it is the preferred method. No pesky parents. Only sympathetic statists who embrace big brother and believe that the government has the best interest of the child at heart, as opposed to the parents. Government school, you say? Is that a PUBLIC school? Yes, and it is financed by, supported by, and run by the same government who wants to steal your children.

If they have any suspicions about your home whatsoever, the DCF agents will come to your child's government school, all smiles, and take your children aside. They will use suggestive and coercive techniques, and get "disclosures" about what goes on in your home: things like spanking or other discipline, prayer in the home (that is now 'abuse'), yelling or arguments between parents (that is now 'domestic violence'). Since this is done alone, no one will be able to fight the DCF agent's lying version of the "abuse" that they will coerce out of the child.

If I can't trust the government school, who can I trust?

No one but your own private lawyer, as stated above. The government has a snitch network of so-called "Mandated Reporters" everywhere a child is likely to be. Nurses, doctors, school counselors, police, dentists, therapists, teachers, day care workers, and many others MUST report anything they think is suspicious, or risk a big fine.

They have manipulated these former helping professionals into becoming snoops for the "Central Party Committee". These people used to be able to help folks in trouble. Now, if you go to them, they will often turn you into the DCF. The authorities have beat them into submission, and most of them now have the attitude of: When in doubt, report.

At this point in our history, only your lawyer can keep your secrets, by law. Everyone else is a snitch. Tell them to no one else.

What should I do, then?

GET YOUR CHILDREN OUT of the government school, and do it now. That is the major pipeline through which the DCF steals children from families. If you are taking government aid of any sort, get rid of it if you can.

If you decide to compromise your family by keeping your children in danger there, then at least teach them that if some DCF agent comes to talk to them, that they demand to have their parents present before answering any questions.

Teach your children the sanctity of the family. The schools are teaching your children to rat on you. Teach your children the other side, the danger to which they expose your whole family by reporting you to the authorities. Teach your children that dozens of children have committed suicide while in foster care. Hundreds have died. Thousands have been tortured and abused.

Teach them that they have the right to remain silent, and if they choose not to remain silent, each and every word they say will be used against their mommy and daddy. Love them, love them, love them.

Teach your children this: "Kids, this is our family attorney, Mr. Smith. He is our family's only attorney. He is the only attorney that we talk to. If somebody else comes to you and says he is your own attorney (e.g. the DCF agent, or guardian ad litem) anything you say to him will be used against our family."

One of the best things you can do is buy and read Suzanne Shell's book, Profane Justice. It can be ordered for $25.00 by writing to: Sage Wisdom Press, P.O. Box 75863, Colorado Springs, CO 80970. Forewarned is forearmed.

What about real child abuse?

Real child abusers should go to prison. And the traditional due process protections of criminal law are more than enough to separate the true abusers from the falsely accused. Just because O.J. was acquitted of murder does not mean we should dispose of all due process. Likewise, just because some abusers will get away does not mean we should take away all children.
