CPS Questions

[morticia]

On a website that i frequent every day, i have started a new live group that has mini forums and allows people to join and post. well, ive started one on the subject of CPS and being falsley accused and charged by them and people just trying to get back at you for personal reasons. I have a few friends that would love to share thier experiences and stories but are afraid that what they may say in the forums could be held against them or used against them in court or by CPS workers. some of these friends have active CPS cases against tehm now and are afraid of being persecuted for what they may post. Is that possible? Is is legal?

I dont see how its illegal but I would not mention any caseworkers by name.

By the way, I am familiar with CPS and I volunteer with social services and work alongside with CPS. We just do not go around making peoples lives miserable for no reason. There has to be a substantiated claim of abuse for us to take any action and we must make a reasonable attempt at family re-unification. Many reports that called into us are totally false. It tough all the time to make the right decision but if there is absolutely nophysical proof of abuse, often we cannot take any action.
