Im in the same situation like everyone cant pay the light bill. Im wondering why the heck we have to pay for the light bill it should be free. I think water, food, light, housing it should all be free. Just like in the middle east. Its funny how we have to pay for things God gave us the ability to do and create. He didnt create money.. He created man and woman to care for the animals and the earth. Look what we have become. In San Antonio Tx we are ruled by one electric company City Public Service, this is the most greedy hateful company that I have dealt with. Every year the elderly die here from the cold winters and extreme heat. They just keep charging up those bills. They dont care to help people because they are the only electric company in san antonio texas. All Im asking is for God to please have someone else open another company here in San Antonio a little competition should knock them off their throne. I think every city should have at least two different light companies. Well ok I just had to voice my opinion. I WONT ASK for help cause their is no one out there who really cares. Gotta deal with it on my own.

I turned 26 on Friday. I have not had any parents until I found my father in prison last year. Through the grace of God I have made it this far. I was a victim of sexual and physical abuse from my family, mostly my mother. My father was absent and a drug user. Until I was 15, I did not know what was done to me wrong. It took CPS four cases of assault and an arrest of my mother to place me with my father's mother, who then would tell me she could not afford me at 16. Texas law is 17 to live without a guardian and from 16 until 17, I was basically homeless. I could not finish high school. One day I got on my knees to pray, and I was able to leave an apartment full of drug addicts. I stopped doing drugs when I walked into my community college to sign up for classes. I earned my associates.
I now want to be a teacher. I have been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression and anxiety. I am going on my third day without sleep. I moved from an unsafe neighborhood 2 months ago. I lived there until I was all most killed one night. I have tried to find the property owner, but found a blueprint of the apartments. I lived there from September 2008 until March 2011. I washed my clothes in my sink, I was too scared to be out past dark.
I now live in a place that is not paid for. The owners showed up after a 3 month delay in rent to collect money. One charity refused me because they do not pay first months rent. I called again to be hung up on. I have called Catholic Charities, Interfaith Ministries, the Salvation Army, and community outreach programs. I do not have a child, I am not married. I am a single women never married or with child trying to make it. I work as a substituting the past two years I have been layed off. I do not have valid registration sticker on my car. I walk. I have already received a warning for it. My doctor supplied me with medication for two months and I am going through a victim's rehabilitation abuse program. My time has ran out.My father is out of prison but worse off. My mother is still on drugs. Please help me. my email is magdelenasky05@yahoo.com and number is 832-425-7988. i stay in houston, texas.I should not be alive but by God's Grace I am. I am old enough to remember these horrible memories that CPS or the law failed to recognize. My half sister was abused too before me. She ran and now she has paranoid schizophrenia, seizures, bi-polar mania. My mother was arrested twice for each of us. How did CPS fail to recognize this woman not to be a fit parent? We lived with drug dealers. Not only did my mother trick the system once but did it again by not only molesting, abusing, and exploiting me, she gets to live consequence free. I have flashbacks of her with guns, knifes, ropes, lighters. help me.
We had been advised years ago that many immunizations contain the "cell line" of aborted babies-so due to religious reasons we LEGALLY opted out of these injections (we signed the waivers as required by law), following ALL Calif laws-we also home schooled all our kids to protect them against forced injections .The Principal-of our legally registered home school- said we are in “FULL compliance with Calif State Law.” -Detective Newman-and The ESW Delmay Mendoza, flat out told me/us that our religious beliefs were "--stupid--" and asked repeatedly if our school was "--even real--"?
They both indicated, seeming to parrot one another, that I was a "--bad dad--" for "--not immunizing them--" Showing her our school documents and our signed waivers did not help our position in the least in their eyes. Perhaps it made it worse-they acted like we were defying their will.
Still she did like our documents well enough to keep them along with medical records, school books and my legally prescribed medications, etc. Perhaps she was running short? Maybe she just enjoyed the Velveteen Rabbit or the Little Engine That Could? Good books, my kids like them. At least shes now well read.
We, their Mother and myself, advised them -both Det Newman & Delmay Mendoza the ESS worker)-that we were aware of Calif Health & Safety Codes 120325 (2006) Legislative Intent; "In enacting Chapter 1--it is the intent of the Legislature to provide-Exemptions from immunizations for medical reasons or because of personal beliefs."
Somehow this seemed upsetting to them-their aggression increased.
We asked "The Emergency Social Worker" to clarify her reason (s) for imprisoning our children-almost 72 hours later. She reiterated her "due to no milk in the fridge" reason and added strongly that "--that's enough-" We informed her AGAIN that we believed this was a violation of California Penal Code § 11 I 67(e). As she provided no reason when she arrived nor one when she left--she ONLY provided one once we went down to the Social services office. She seemed irritated and dismissive when we sighted the Penal code. She turned red when we additional informed her that THIS did NOT meet the standard of 'imminent danger ' under California Law-- from there she stated angrily that she could "--not talk to us and write at the same time." and dismissed herself.
It was the 1st statement she made that I believed-if only she had admitted to liking the 'Velveteen Rabbit'- perhaps things could have been different. “The Little Engine That Could” wasn't bad either perhaps she preferred “Thomas The Train”. Walmart did have it on sale-my mistake.
Sighting the laws only seemed to further incite them and did NOT end their questions regarding our medical nor our religious decisions. Detective Newman was already dismayed that I/we had challenge his claim of having "--a warrant--" (the social worker was NOT there yet) and the detective called 4 police cars for back up after my request to see his warrant--I am disabled and spend 60% of my time in a wheelchair-obviously a huge threat to the general public and perhaps police men at large-needing 4 other policemen appears to be about right.
Though I'm certain they still felt out numbered and I understand why.
Still, it mattered not that we complied with all laws and were NOT neglectful but judicious in our research in reaching all of our decisions. It didn't matter that these were our sincerely held religious beliefs or we did everything we could to act in the best interest of our beautiful, beautiful children-they pressed on.
The Law was one thing violating THEIR beliefs is a whole other story—or perhaps that horse of another color your hear so much about.
The PS is they revealed their REAL motives for abducting our children by putting them into a school of THEIR choice and are FORCE INJECTING THEM-the rest is a simple smoke screen to cover their crime.
Yes crime, either there is a Constitution or there is not. Either there is religious freedom or there is not. They either acted within the law—or they are criminals acting under the color of law. A civil rights violation.
You decide which.
They indicated to us if their Mom and me would divorce each other-to destroy our family-they would "consider" giving the kids back to her.
The father gone?--For what purpose? I was the one who named our kids to give them meaning
Aeylias-base on the prophets Eli & Elijah--and Amalay--meaning the enlightened one and the way of truth and beauty as well as GOD--to take their father away? WHY?
Yes destroy our family-we LOVE each other and are happy with one another--divorce each other why? There is NO justification for this. Simply a whim they wish to impose upon us.
And now they INJECT our kids against our will AND against their will-again why?
They are not only poisoning their bodies and going against our families religious freedoms but also planting ideas in their heads that we "don't want them back." and "don't love us (them)". BEYOND Heartbreaking. Personally we believe, AFTER several conversations with our children, that their education has taken several BIG steps backwards--and both my son & daughter have unexplained injuries of a reasonably large variety. ALL DOCUMENTED. Need pictures-we got pictures—ahh Got Milk? Well not so much-- just ask Delmay, apparently she is the REAL dairy queen.
How are they better off with strangers than with us or their Aunt and God Mother that has known them since the womb?
They also have been CONSISTENTLY sick since they left our care and their health, mental, physical & emotional are clearly in decline.
It is so HARD to BELIEVE WE WILL GET OUR KIDS BACK-they believe they can "raise them better".
The coming of George Orwell. 27 years late.
If they pursued an honest, but perhaps an incorrect point of view, we could see it (though of course disagree) but what would be the need to make allegations and create events that are wholly untrue and worse non-existent? I.e. alleging we "--had a fridge full of moldy food." or (a few weeks later) "--father is dependent on & an abuser of prescription medication." I have no criminal record and no history of being a drug abuser nor suffering from a drug addiction. I OFFERED three times to take a drug test THEY declined ALL 3 times. Even the ESW documented in her report "--that father is a law abiding citizen--"
Further, I do not, nor have I ever, owned a moldy food collection-sometimes I eat cheese or yogurt but that's as far as it goes-honest.
Some have dubbed this as the "The California Milk Case"
Yet I did not know there was a California Milk law—They attacked you for meat they are attacking me for milk-at least they both begin with “M” right?
We asked the ESW how this met the standard of " imminent danger"? Neither she, nor her supervisor, nor the mediator was able to answer such a simple & direct question. Though they had plenty of questions about why we "hated" school--or were "against vaccines" and what was EVERY detail of our "---religious beliefs." They spent VERY little time on my "--drug addiction--" and my "--moldy food--" hobby and my INTENSE disdain for milk. And perhaps for good reason. They have now moved on to the game I play with my daughter and my son of 'seeing' shapes in the clouds--can you guess where they are now going with this?
Madness-not mine-theirs. Aren't they embarrassed? I am insane and talk to invisible God creatures in the sky. Right. Perhaps IF I drank more milk I might have been cured.
Everyday they change their story-add new allegations and manufacture claims. Of course they realized long ago their "no milk--" claim would sour and they DESPERATELY needed something else to take its place.
Perhaps cottage cheese? Swiss? Gouda? Gouda sounds good-kind of exotic.
Don't they know our kids have minds and hearts and souls of their own? Amalay (F7) & Aeylais (M8) years old, love babies and animals. --They clearly have no wish to hurt them-- even they are vegetarians--which is wholly in line with THEIR religious beliefs. They even refuse to buy products that promote animal testing and even HIDE such products while in a store as they believe this will "--help to protect--" a scared life.
The truth did not matter to Detective Newman nor Demay Mendoza-our beliefs were "--stupid--" and our school was "--not real--" Perhaps they need a psychological evaluation and not me?
Yet we know the REALITY of all of this; they removed our children - due to religious reasons-BUT they couldn't say it now could they? That would be illegal.
JUST as if they were racist-they could not afford to say we did what we did because we do not like _______ people now could they?
BTW My daughter is lactose intolerant so having milk would be counter intuitive to any thinking person.
I wonder if they California Milk Law has a lactose intolerance exclusion?
I'll ask Delamy next time I see her.
I mean they never considered simple facts like we called the Police and CPS once in 2006 due to her family allowing sexual abuse to occur in a child care center they were running. They allowed a grown man, that was NOT employed their to hang out with 3, 4 and 5 year old kids? Yeah why would you allow that? Of course he fled and nothing was done. Even thought they Failed to protect their family remained intact-guess they were immunized and enrolled into the right schools.
Our children were AGAIN abused by separate family members and we packed up and left-that's what you do you protect your kids right? And instead the Police and CPS attack us? Wow what a wonderful message-be careful if you call CPS it might just flip on you. It seems that CPS is EVRY bit as DANGEROUS as a predator. Losing your kids forever—think about it—THAT”S Power.
I personally will NEVER call CPS again.
Naturally Demlay Mendoza & Detective Newman thought it would be best for the children if THEY were RETURNED TO THE HOUSE THE WERE abused at!!! I mean this is brilliance in action.
Bring them back where they were sexually assault and had his arm broke.
Makes sense doesn't it?
Perhaps genius. Perhaps that is the best summation I could give.
I miss the “Velveteen Rabbit” and “The Little Engine That Could.”

Hello,
My name is Justin Boswell. I have a wife of three years and we have just had a baby boy about 11 months ago. We are locked in a CPS battle right now for my son. Today they told us that we have to drive to each meeting which is once a week and then also to Seguin once a week as well for our lawyer meetings. We have no transportation. I have a valid Texas Drivers License but no car because my wife and I are both on a set income from the government. CPS is telling us that if we do not attend these meeting no matter what the cause may be then we will loose our son. I am also a full time college student at ITT Technical Institute here in San Antonio. I have to get a car so that we can do as CPS asks and get our child back. I have no help from the outside friends nor family. Can you help us?
I am ever so grateful for the postings to my plea for help. I have finally qualified for disability, but, became worse in the process. I can only type for short periods of time and have to use a wheelchair now. I had both my children for a time period but lost both in the divorce from my husband. My son and I were scraping by with money and medical management for my condition but it was not enough and he finally had to quit gymnastics as he is in custody of his grandparents which are fortunately around the corner. His whole childhood was gymnastics and he is suffering from identity issues as well as emotional. I have only supervised visits with the children due to CPS in texas and there are no accomodations for people that are disabled to see their children. I have reported this violation to the ACLU and I hope for a response. I have suffered many, many setbacks and I am fighting the rest of the way. I have some information for people that are in my boat. If you are a veteran with 10 or more years of service and you have served actively and become disabled with dependants you may qualify for VA disability. ALSO if you are being abused by a caretaker or money stolen you can have advocates to help deal with the police(Adult Protective Services). Join any church that offers help to you. It is the only way to live a good and fair life. God will be good. I guarantee it. Bless you. If any one knows how I can restore my son and daughters athletic life let me know. In texas his gym is an hour away. He was fortunate enough to be on a team with the fellow Mens Olympic Gymnastic Team and practice regularly with them. He will never forget it. Also in Texas if a parent is disabled a child can get their Hardship License at 14. And fortunatetly for him, The Mens Olympic Coach has an open invitation for him to come back as soon as he can. He really loved Raj as a sort of mentor, he told him he has talent. He will never forget that either. He is disturbed emotionally right now but I believe children are resilient. Take care and I will check in as often as possible
Technically agoraphobia is the fear of open spaces. However to people who have agoraphobia the fear is more of unfamiliar places or simply leaving their homes. It is like a constant panic attack at times. It is a very real fear and a very real mental illness, and not easily overcome, but with help it can be. Time, treatment, medication, counseling, proper diet - all these things contribute to the stabilization of people suffering from agoraphobia.
Thanks for the post but no one so far can help. I tried to get a check up for a woman's well exam and dental but I am disabled due to my smi agoraphobia and 33 yrs old so I do not qualify because it is not a physical diability. I am still homebound and on ssd.ssi. I need a place close by 85022-85032 so my Mom and brother can help when my kids need to go to the dr's I don't know where I fit in so to speak I feel so alone and afraid please help if you can thanks God bless
