i was wondering if any of you out there that have kids.have you ever been threatened by someone that they would take your child?this makes me so mad to hear someone say someone should call the state and take that child.i over heard a lady say this about her own daughter and grandbaby.i dont know the situation and maybe the state in her case should step in but i cant stand when people complain about other peoples children.unless there is neglect or abuse people need to stay out of others lives.i would have to kill someone if they said they would take my child away.they better have a damn good reason to threaten me.

I'm with you all the way! It makes me so angry when the state steps in, too many times they are over stepping their bounds, and they throw the child into an enviroment where they ARE hurt, and sometimes even KILLED!!! Yes there are some cases where it is better the child be removed from the home. Sad thing is though, these are the cases that are over looked, and the cases that need to be left alone are persued and children and parents are hurt. The system is screwed up real bad, and it really angers me. You see so many children in the news, hurt or killed by foster parents, and find out the parents did nothing wrong. You also hear about the severe parental abuse that the state ignored! The state needs to backoff, and let God handle what goes on behind a mans closed doors. That may sound wrong to many, but it is my opinion that there would be a lot less children hurt and killed, if the state stopped taking kids from parents who love them and are doing no wrong. God will deal with everyone who hurts a child, or any human for that matter. We really need to stop playing God all the time, and let God be Himself for a change!

Yes is kinda sad that people say those things knowing how important is a child for a mother in some cases.. i still disagree that they can take your kid if you even spank them for doing something wrong, come one one thing can be spanking them and other raping them or something, thats why there are some many raped kids because police pay more attention to those mom that spank the kid than the ones that rape them..

I would feel the same if someone had tried to take my children. Unfortunately all children are not as luck as yours and they don't have good mom's and dads. People should mind their own business, but when it comes to a child in need I think people should take the right steps to protect the children. Not out of spite but only if there is a real need.

My former mother in law allegedly told my ex husband, that she had strongly considered calling Children's Aid on us back when our second son was born. According to my ex, she claimed that our home was too dirty of an environment, and that she was worried for the health and safety of the boys. I never did confront my former mother in law on that accusation, and after all of the lies I have since found out that my ex told, I have reason to believe that it never happened.

yes, I know exactly how bad it is. My ex's father called child services and told them that my new husband and I were abusing my son. They investigated and found it to be an absolute LIE!!! I'm still scared that they will try to pick my son up from school and run off with him. My ex has threatened that before.

Yea actually my ex threatened to kidnap our son when I was preg with our daughter and he also threatened again to take our son just after our daughter was born....Have I ever been threatened to have child services called on me though? No..never..and anyone who'd dare to try, good luck with that since they'd have NO CASE...and if I were ever to find out who the person was I'd hunt them down and beat the everloving crap out of them for even thinking about messing with me and my kids let alone actually acting on it

Yes I do know that if someone reports you into the child services they will take your care away if you've done anything to harm them in any way...

When I had my firstborn, the father was a good for nothing bum, and his mother was vile, she babied her boy terrible and he could do no wrong, even though he was violent and was always in and out of prison. One of the times he was in prison I gained the strength to leave him. I tried to stay on good terms with them for my sons sake, but twice she tried to get my son put into care!! Yes twice, and the best part was she would ask to have some time with her grandson and then she would be on the phone to social services telling them I had dumped him with her and didnt want him. The first time she did it, she had loads of excuses and was crying and saying sorry, I gave her the benefit of the doubt. Well not long after this I decided to move away from the area to be closer to my mum and dad, she asked could she spend some time with my son before I went, as I was moving quite far away,so I said ok. Next thing I know my Dad phones me and asked where my son was, I said hes staying with his other nanny for the last time before I move to you and mum. My dad said that someone had phoned him and told him that she was planning to put him in care that very day she had been telling everyone that I had dumped him on her again and she couldnt cope with a newborn baby. I literally ran all the way round to her house I was livid I wanted to kill her. She tried to get out of it saying someone was stirring, but I knew in my heart she was lying, I couldnt understand how someone could try to do that to a tiny defenceless child their own flesh and blood, I moved as planned and they have never been in touch since, my son is now 16 years old.

It would not pay anyone to say they were going to take my children. Or threaten that they are going to, My children are my life. There would be No reason for anyone to want to take them. I am a good mom. And my children live a good life.

Taking away the children... threatening them..? Only senseless, criminal minded people would actually voice out their sick intentions. Yeah, but of course, if neglect, abuse and ignorance arise from the parents side, than it's best that the authorities step in for the sake of the child.
