Why Could Your Child be Taken??

Today I want to talk about the reasons CYS may take your child.

Divorce-an angry spouse accuses you of harming or neglecting the child or abusing drugs or alcohol.

Angry Neighbor-Because of noise or where you park your car they may call in and make false reports about what they have seen you do to or with your child.

Truancy-Big issue in PA many kids are being taken and put in foster care because of not attending school.

Illness-I have heard too many cases of late where a single mother fell ill and the child was taken and put into foster care instead of a relatives care.  Or as we just experienced the Pellitiers who lost their daughter to the care of the state because her parents didn't agree with her medical care.

You could also walk into a dr office or emergency with aperfectly innocent fall of your childs or illness and CYS is there to snag your child before you have a chance to even guess what is going on.
