Has cause or manner of death been released yet?
I really think that third child belongs to the boyfriend and another woman. :twocents:
If she had previously lost custody of a child we would have heard that by now.
She handed them all over. He picked CherishIf her Mother had not gotten in a van with a STRANGER because she wanted a "dress" she would not have had to PROTECT her. She basically handed that poor baby over....
Im gonna put my hard hat on here before anyone bashes me but.
I dont think right now those kiddies are in danger and i dont think before the funeral its in there best interest to be taken away from mom.. they must be so messed up already
Authorities will know that right now they have a million and one ppl watching out for those little ones
True.
Makes me wonder how she gets to legally live in the US.
But why should authorities have to rely on everyone else to look after them? Shouldn't their MOTHER be doing that? Isn't that one of the purposes of CPS? To take children out of situations, where the parent(s) aren't capable of looking after them?
The obit listed names sisters, the first sisters last name is also different than the other 2. And where is that child?
Also list the BF as the step father. I didn't think a "boy friend" was a step father. It thought you had to be married to be the step father/mother?
I haven't read every little article today but the obituary has me scratching my head even more if that's possible in this case..
As unprofessional as it may be IMO FB may be the fathers only way of making his side/words heard..No one in the courts has listened to him for years and apparently with donations flowing in no one is listening to him now..IMO
I'm just thinking if I supported a child (maybe the mother, bf and two other children) and I had TRIED for years to be heard and this happened to my child. Yeah i would be screaming from the rooftops at this point...
The name changing is to say the least strange IMO. However no stranger than this RP making EVERYTHING about HER instead of her Murdered Daughter...
So now there is another child somewhere in the mix of all of this?
All this donating just makes me sick to think that you can be this careless and benefit from it and all in the name of this child..It makes me sick with all these cases frankly..
It's a matter of what's best for the kids. Right now the millions of extra eyes goes a long way to ensure the mother won't do something else stupid. The kids lost a sibling in one of the most horrible ways possible. They need a bit of time to grieve and adjust to THAT. If it is not absolutely necessary to take them out of the home at this moment, then it's better to let them adjust to this one trauma (to a degree) and then move on to the next step. And in my humble opinion, the next step is remove the children and have both parents evaluated; then go from there.
It's not a matter of the authorities "relying on everyone else." It is what is ultimately best for the kids.
im going to address what's required by law to have in your home:
first is what you don't have to have:
ac
heat
a fridge
a stove
a working toilet
a shower
electricity
what you must have
a bucket with 1 gallon of water in it *this is used for a toilet
a cooler used to store perishable food items
mattresses for those staying there
a separate bedroom for boys and girls at a certain age.
drinking water.
blankets
a roof
remember there are religions and off shoot lifestyles that live off of land and do not have the amenities we consider 'a must have'. outhouses, wood burning stoves, ice chests and things of this nature are very common in some (notice the word some) amish backgrounds. cps cannot remove your children if your home is clean, there is no black mold and or drugs. and if there is.. you have ample chance to fix that situation.
this won't be popular opinion but: i'm not too sure how I feel about the fathers' atty posting on FB about the case. I find it highly unprofessional and personally, I'd fire him. I'm grateful for the posts though, gives an insight to it all .. but it's not helping anything.
I was not refuting that fact, and that was not at all my point.Cherish has an actual father.....
BBM: heat is not required in the winter?
And that she then put it up on Facebook.
Whatever the situation, Facebook is not the place for a lawyer to fight battles.
The lawyer could have contacted the funeral home and discussed his concerns with them.
Who would arrest anybody for attending a funeral? If they are causing a disturbance then yes but not for just attending a service open to the public.
There are going to be a lot of families and class mates of Cherish attending. I do hope that everybody can remain civil for their sake as well.
Perhaps DFACS should also review their protocol for temporary removal of possible endangered children at the same time.
Okay, okay, I can hear all of you, I'll shut up now.
Except to complain that I wasn't able to use the tape over mouth smiley after that last sentence. I think I've been grounded from using smileys. Sigh.
