It seems like a lot of people just want to vent and share and express and unload all this trauma, and I get it, we all do that. Everybody wants to share and talk, but some of these CPS workers probably came from households like that and wanted to help, but soon learned and realized the scope and enormity of the situation was much more than any listening to the trauma-dumping could help.
They have bosses and their bosses are eventually the courts, and the limited funding and the corruption and etc etc. I guarantee there are many cases where they helped, or many cases where they tried and were taken advantage of by bad people. And Retired52 said it best "And it's the poor kids that have to suffer." The kids are the victims here, true, and all the comments seem to come from the victims.
It's fucking sad, especially when you deal with these traumatized kids. I know kids in middle and high schools from situations and homes like these that do drugs, fight or don't respect authority, and 2 (1 middle schooler and 1 high schooler that call themselves "trans.") The boy took hormones and turned himself into a girl and does make-up to look like a chola, and the little middle school girl shaved her head and acts like a tough boy.
Their facades are strong, but when you get them in vulnerable moments, they're hurt and lost and scared and traumatized beyond comprehension- sexual, physical, emotional trauma, the obvious neglect. It sucks to say, but some people should just not have kids.
What do you do when they do though? I knew a girl strung out on drugs once that got pregnant. Luckily she had a miscarriage because that baby would've been traumatized. One time I saw a drug deal go down in an alley where a little girl was standing by a guy's legs and the mom was nearby just watching and waiting.

That's sad and heartbreaking @thecrazygoodmomlife . So much trauma. But who's fault is it!? How could those trauma's have been avoided? Someone above told me they felt CPS failed because they left them with their parents. You're saying they failed because they took you from your parents. What's the solution to these types of situations and parents!? How can people have children and expect there to be a safety net where another family or department will have to house, clothes, and feed them to their standard!? It's all just so sad. We're blessed in this country you know, in other countries, there's 0 funding for this kind of stuff, regardless of how good or bad the public thinks it is. I know some kids that grew up in situations like these that had to grow up a lot quicker and fend for themselves, even the traumatized ones. They started painting or landscaping jobs where eventually they learned how to work for themselves and make a pretty darn decent living- no help, no parents, no CPS, no courts, just the will to work and survive, and even thrive. I'm with you though. What do you think is the solution? Is there even one?
