I am sorry you have had such a terriable experience dealing with CPS. We have been dealing with them for over 20 years. Yes there is much injustice sometimes kids are removed and should not be and kids are returned that should never be returned. But with every child I have adopted, 15 so far, there were at times relatives that could have had custody but did not want custody. Other times relatives were disquailifed because of past arrests for drugs etc. As to drug screens. Yes there are false readings. But that is only part of what the court considers during a TPR trial. Some of my kids were in care for 7 and 8 years, should we expect them to wait until they are 18? Some of my other kids had been in care repeatly, going home and returning into care because a parent got arrested for buying or selling drugs. When this happens over and over again what can the courts do but at least find a family for these kids so they can grow up safely. We have worked with a flawed system for years because we wanted a family. I understand where you are coming from but not every parent works as hard as you to regain custody. Sadly some seem to care more about drugs than their kids.
