Goodmorning!

This article strikes home. My Grandson who is now 13 and a diapalegic from Cerebral Palsey and has the most reflugent personality has had his Mom fighting the school system in CA for years over drugging him which is totally bizzar.

She, so far has won the battle, but has been threatened with CPS interference and removing the boy from home. The Doctor she takes him to at the Shriner's Hospital in Sac. has been helping her fight it off, and so far they are winning.

He reflugently carries on with his warm loving demeanor. He is a B student and loves his special ed. school.

You grandson sound like a jewel. I truly cannot understand where the liberals think that doping our children can possibly be good for them?

It's like they have they disease dejour and most ensure that all children have said disease.

Tell your daughter to keep up the good fight, it just like CA to intrude to such an invasive level in the raising of children.

That's super, wing. So many people are afraid of CPS, and rightly so.

It is an unfortunate world we live in that CPS is neccessary - but as far as I'm concerned they have gotten WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too big for their britches.

3 years ago, when my daughter was 1, someone from CPS called her godfather, not knowing the relationship, just thinking he was my boss.

She expressed concern for the lack of parenting abilities of my husband and I because of where we had been with our child the previous saturday. I came to find out she also called the owner of the establishment about my bringing my child there.

The place is a restaurant, but also a popular watering hole that gets great entertainment onthe weekends. I could see the CPS person's problem if we were there with the baby at 10 at night. But we were with a large group of folks (including other children) at 4 in the afternoon.

Long story short - none of us were cowed by her, nor was my attorney, and while she still is at CPS, she's not in a position of authority.

Good for your grandson's Mom for standing up for herself and him, and God bless them and the Doc at the Shriner's.
