Why can cps use your past against you and not the other parent?
I lost 3 kids the father's lied and came against me in court they got custody of them they lost the kids back to foster care for abuse while in foster care and got them back lost them again and now I have false allegations on me and there using my past in order to stop me from getting my kids one of my kids father stabbed a guy while having my daughter and the state didn't even know where she was the other whipped welts on my 2kids lost them got one back and the case closed the other went to foster care cuz she was afraid to go back this is so unfair and i still have my rights
Hard to give you a really good answer to your concerns. Most of what likely happens is they view your past as a determinate of how you will do in the future. A good lawyer can help by being an advocate for how things have changed and to point out how their decisions have hurt the kids. The true test is what is in the best interest of the children.
Most lawyers will give you a free consultation if you ask for one. We do this all the time, but remember that our time is valuable and you should stay with the people who help you the most. All responses are just general legal advice & they do not establish an Attorney-Client Relationship, & may not apply to your particular situation.
