Too many people misunderstand the purpose of child protective services. Far from being a kind and benevolent agency, it has become a heartless, family-destroying behemoth relying on federal funding streams given when children are taken from their families, when parental rights are terminated, and when adoptions take place.

Because the funding incentives are on the side of family destruction, too many parents are finding themselves targets of false or trivial accusations of child abuse or neglect. The definition of what constitutes child abuse or neglect has expanded significantly since this system came into being - now almost any family problem can be misconstrued in a way that can cause family destruction through the juvenile legal system.

Because the majority of Americans still think of CPS as being benevolent they've missed the reality of how cruel, traumatizing and destructive it has become not only to parents, but to the children themselves. Often children are abused worse in foster homes than they ever were in their natural family homes. Many children have been raped or killed by foster caretakers.

In the spirit of justice and with a sincere heart desiring the truth to be known for the well-being of the American people, we request that you invite families who have been abused by child protective service agencies to come forward and speak out as guests on your shows.
