Is there a CPS worker around that can answer a few questions? **UPDATE meeting with CPS today**
Okay, Friday night we had my step kids over for their visitation they are with us from Friday at 6pm til Sunday at 6pm. The cops came and knocked on our door claiming that they were looking for an Asian man. Which later we found out did not exsist. Anyways they asked to come into our home and check for this Asian man we allowed them to at which time they left and called CPS. CPS came in and decided to remove the kids (we live in a hotel currently and the courts know this but hadn't had a chance to wash clothes in a couple of days so our room had clothes stacked up in it). While they were waiting on the Grandparents to come pick the children up the Social worker took it upon herself to answer my home telephone and tell my mother whom she had no idea whom was on the phone detailed information about what was going on. I looked over and realized that there was her husband sitting in the car waiting for her to remove the kids, also we requested that the Grandparents whom we do not get along with and do not speak to we have a 3rd part pick up and drop off the kids not to enter our home. She proceeded to let them into our home. She threatened to put a protective order on my husband and charge him with negelect. We have had problems out of this County since we moved here. I wish we would of moved out a long time ago. Anyways. I'm sure rights were broken through this and I would just like to know your actual way of doing things because Im sure that things were done wrong. Oh and the children were fine they were clean and asleep and nothing was wrong with them at all. They had on clean clothes, they had just got out of the bath and they were asleep in the bed. They made us leave our room saying we were a danger when nothing had happened at all to the kids. AND we know for a fact all of this stemmed from the Great Grandparents. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am sorry Mama...giving you a bump. I am not really sure what you can do. I would contact a lawyer if you can about the situation.
I know if it's a small town, sometimes, shady stuff can go on. All about ...who you know? My Dad had me removed from my mother's care when they got a divorced based on lies and who he knew....I ended up being bounced around for over a month. So I know all to well that sometimes things are not what they seem.
Good luck on your situation and hope someone has some helpful advice for you.
Hmm I dont think they should of done that, my friend goes back & forth from shelters to hotels with her 3 kids. (If i had my own place i'd let her stay with me, but i dont) Anyway her hotel is always a mess and she has a social worker come to her hotel often, they never took her kids away.
WOW! I'm not a CPS worker, but have delt with them on 2 occasions. My phone has rang in the middle of them talking to me, and the didn't even bat an eye until I answered and politely told them to STFU. I was incredibly rude to them (I knew who called and was pissed they even wasted their time- now know/understand that they have to), the 2nd time I delt with them my house was a mess, and my mom stopped by at the same time the lady was at my home and asked her what she was doing there and the CPS worker straight up told my mom it was none of her business and if I wanted her to know I would tell her, that by LAW she couldn't say anything to anyone besides me. It sounds incredibly shaddy, but I don't know how they do things in your state, and unfortunately in smaller towns sometimes ppl with friends in high places get their way over the actual law. It sucks, but I don;t know what you can do besides talk to a lawyer. Where;s the BM in all of this? Hope some one can help you.
