Child Protective Services, CPS, has devastated and destroyed hundreds of thousands of families in America during the last thirty years leaving a trail of broken hearts, broken dreams, and shattered childhoods.
Rather than helping families, government agents have used unconstitutional laws in Juvenile Court to rip children away from their loving parents, break asunder God-given, natural, parent-child bonds, and adopt the children of the grieving out to others who profit financially with large monthly adoption subsidy payments.
Child Protective Services must be stopped! The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed. We must work tirelessly to inform the public of this very dangerous travesty of justice. We must keep faith knowing that if there is a God, there is an answer and a way to end this heartache.
Child Protective Services Agents - please come to your senses! Family destruction on false or trivial grounds is wrong, reprehensible, and inhumane.
Fosterers - be aware that for the money you get you are holding much-loved children away from their grieving families while the parents are forced to perform a service plan that is anything but a service to them. I call this hostage holding for the government. This is not kindness - to help misguided government agents destroy family relationships and break loving bonds.
CPS workers and fosterers - I ask that you now give up these unworthy professions and find something more dignified to do with your lives. Let the children of the innocent return to their homes where they are truly valued, adored, and loved by the parents God gave them.
Family rights are God-given rights. And they should not be ignored or postponed. Every moment these loving parents and children spend separated from one another is a torment beyond what anyone should ever have to bear.
It is unworthy of human dignity to allow this terrorism and torture of families to go on without saying something, speaking out, and trying to make a change.
Site mission: To provide information and support for families attacked by Child Protective Services and child welfare agents, especially those families facing false or trivial accusations of child abuse or neglect; and for researchers working to protect natural family rights.
Massachusetts: Attorney Gregory Hession's email to two systemite drones

This is a response to your letters you sent me, which I have pasted both below.
I see that you, Tamara, work for DSS, or some state agency, (per your web address below of state.ma.us), so we will probably never agree on much. I agree that not every child taken by DSS is taken wrongly, but most are. DSS uses power, force, and violence to accomplish its ends, and on balance, does far, far, far more harm than good.
Not one family that I have ever worked with, nor one family represented by any attorney that I know, has ever been helped by DSS. They have, however, been oppressed, tyrannized, abused, had their children killed or sexually molested, have been fired from jobs, slandered, financially ruined, emotionally stressed, and a lot of other things, but never helped.
DSS gets huge financial incentives to take children, and more huge incentives to adopt them out, and none to help them stay in families.
It is easy for you to say what you say, because your favorite agency is the one with the power over these parents, the one using the court as a weapon, the one threatening anyone who dares not to do what you say, the one ordering people around, the one getting people fired, the one trespassing on their property, the one snitching on your neighbors, the one prying screaming frightened children out of their mother's arms. Nice work if you can get it, huh?
DSS uses the arguments of tyrants, and embraces the creed of slaves: necessity. It's for the children that we usurp everyone's freedom and undermine the constitution, subvert due process, suborn perjury, and haul thousands of families to court on false allegations. Most children don't want to be done to this way. The families who covet the stolen children, and want to adopt them, surely do.
Until your favorite agency begins to respect the fundamental protected rights of children and families, it is an outlaw, and a particularly despicable one at that, and deserves to be treated with the respect due any outlaw.

Attorney Hession-
I heard about your web site against DSS from a friend and upon reviewing the information you posted, I am very disturbed by you allegations that DSS is only out to take people's children away. In no way did you present ways in which DSS could possible improve practices nor did you compile any positive solutions to the valid abuse and neglect cases opened yearly. I am assuming that you have represented families who have been involved with DSS and I think before you make unfound claims against an agency that works to protect children, you should explore whether your motivation is soley due to the cases you are paid to represent (such as clients who run away with their children). You present a scenario that DSS enjoys plucking children from their warm, loving homes, when that is not the reality. Most of the cases where children are removed, it is my understanding that children are placed with extended family members. There are many positive aspects of DSS that many people I know have benefited from and when DSS intervenes in their lives have positively changed their futures. I think that you should base advice you give the public through your web site information based on facts so that families can make realistic, educated decisions. Thank you for your time! T. Perini

Attorney Gregory A. Hession:
After viewing your website WWW.Massoutrage.com, I have found that you do not offer a solution to families who are involved the Department of Social Services. Do you prefer that children who are being neglected or abuse staying in that abusing enviorment. This website looks more like an marketing tool for you to profit from families who are involved with DSS. If you feel this strong about this matter why are you not going to congress. Before you cast the first stone why don't you really find out how DSS actually works because all of the links that are posted on your website as to how they oporate are false and unfounded. You are putting false hopes to parents who are involved with DSS therefore putting some children at risk who are being abuse or neglected by the same parents. It is my understanding that a DSS involved parent (who is also your client) was charged with kidnaping because he/she took the children and ran because of the advise you gave them as to not cooporate with DSS. It is my view as a resident of MA that your website and views are causing more harm than good.
