Dear Group Members,
I have written to so many people and I keep getting turned away,
turned down and noses turned. I feel I am having to defend myself,
when I have not done anything wrong, My ex called CPS/DHS almost
every day accusing me of abuse, the kids act out here and now they
are there, nothing. I am worried about their education, My 14 yr old,
does not pass the 8th grade here, but he is in the ninth grade there.
My 8 yr old was promoted to the 3rd grade but there they demote him
to the 2nd grade.
I have contacted Legal aid, and they will not take on post divorce
cases. I am so alone and so very sad, I am angry and confused, I love
my children with all my heart.

I wrote the school, but here is what was said:

Dear Hazel,

I'm sure that you feel as if you are in an isolated position and
unable to get accurate information. Since you do not have custodial
rights there is not much information I can share with you, but I can
state that this decision was not made hastily, it was well supported
by quite a bit of data and documentation and that it was agreed upon
by all of the parties involved, including the father. I wish I could
share more with you, but rest assured your son is receiving a quality
education at a great elementary school.

Dan Lere
Superintendent

I know you do not know me, I am Emitt Smith's mother Hazel Lynn
Smith. I do not have custodial custody of Emitt at this time, but I
am his mother. I have had custody of Emitt for the last eight years,
he his a very smart young man, we read every day of his life for 30
minutes to an hour to help him and his sister. We worked math facts
and such for 15 minutes per night. He is to smart, and will become
bored and I am afraid once boredom hits he will be a class clown. I
am far from wishing this upon him, but I have seen his brother John
Dennis Smith go through the same. So, I am appealing the fact that
your school has demoted him, from 3rd grade to 2nd grade. I have his
test scores, his report card and any other information that will be
needed. I have spoke with Mrs. Sullivan at Decker Prairie his last
school attended. He has attended schools in district 11. Patrick
Henry and Lincoln. Please let me know the information that is needed,
so that this can be resolved. He is being made fun of in class,
because he started in 3rd grade and the kids are calling him dumb and
stupid. I know this because Emitt spoke with me about all this on the
phone crying and very upset, August 20th, 2008 the day your school
demoted him. If you have concerns, I can go through Mrs. Sullivan at
Decker Prairie. I can also go through the Superintendent or the Mrs.
Reed the president of the Board of Education for District 70 if
necessary, what ever it takes to resolve this issue.

I wrote this to all the attorneys and such..............

The original divorce was here in Texas Montgomery County, custody
case was continued in Colorado, because I used to live there, but now
since Oct 19th 2007, I reside in Texas which is where all my children
were residing until this last hearing in May 2008. I have a 6 yr old
who still resides with me, I have an 18 yr old who just left for boot
camp, I have a 14 and 8 yr old are the children that just left June
3rd 2008, to live with dad, by order of judge. I had permission fm
the courts to move, on October 17th 2007. He owed eight thousand in
child support went to court, several times, he lost his license, so
he is po'ed and now he is rewarded with children. Go figure!!! I have
a permanent protection order in Colorado against him, but have not
had any issues here so they will not provide one here in Texas fm
what I have found out on the phone. The children in question are in
Colorado with father somewhere near Rye, I have no address for them,
I am unable to send clothes or gifts. I just recently got the phone
number to talk to them the 19th of August. I had not talked to them
since July 29th, 2008. The father is trying to alienate me from the
children all together. I am concerned with the education my children
are receiving due to the fact that Emitt my 8 yr old was promoted
here in Texas to the 3rd grade, and John Dennis my 14 yr old was not
promoted to the ninth grade, now after 10 days in school Emitt is
demoted to 2nd and John is promoted to 9th? I receive food stamps and
Medicaid. The legal services in Colorado will not help, it is after
the fact of the divorce. Post divorce. I have been told by many
attorneys to call them. I aslo hav been told by one attorny to get an
attorney here in Texas: his email is to follow,

I sincerely regret this situation you are in. Unless I am mistaken,
it appears that you are in Texas and the children, when not with you,
are in Colorado. If you are to get any relief from this situation,
you are going to have to fight this in the Colorado courts, even
though you have no confidence in that system. Unfortunately, the
ability of people to find free or low cost legal help for post decree
custody and support matters is severely limited—there simply are not
many organizations or attorneys who can or will take on these cases.
If someone has money, there are lawyers who can be hired, but not
many free ones. I suggest you contact Texas Legal Services and see if
you can interest someone there enough to get them to make a personal
referral to Colorado Legal Services. Alternatively, you could contact
Colorado Legal Services directly. They can be contacted at 303 837
1313. However, if you could get a "champion" in Texas, they may be
able to cut through some red tape here in Colorado with our Legal
Services. I wish you the best with this.

So that is when I started to write Texas Attorney's. I thank you for
your time, I apologize for taken it.

Subject: RE: Your request for legal assistance
It would be nice if someone would help me, but I have been writing to
people and found out that there is no one to help me in Colorado.
I have had problems with my ex husband for many years now. He is very
abusive, physically, emotionally and verbally. He owed child support,
so Colorado took his drivers license, then they took him to court, so
he was pretty mad and convinced and conned my 14 year old that I was
abusive, and he would get him cars, trucks, and other boy toys, so my
son and his dad told the court that I was abusive. Which, I have
never been abusive to any of my children. If we had gone back to the
same court with Magistrate Sullivan he would not have custody of my 2
boys. She knows how he is and manipulative he is with the court
system. He tried to be manipulative with DHS and they caught on to
him too. His attorney took it into another court Judge Kane's and he
just went for him all the way, he did not hear me at all, he just
ignored me, I told the judge about the abuse I have been through and
what he has put my children through, he still did not hear me. So he
gave my abusive ex husband custody of my precious boys and now I have
to pay him child support. He owed over eight thousand dollars. If you
want justice in judge Kane's court you are dreaming because the
justice system is missing in his court. He does not look at the
evidence or listen to you. He made his judgment on the statement of a
CASA worker which never saw me with my children. She made here
decision only based on what she saw with my ex and the children. She
made her decision on false accusations, she did not investigate, she
did took my other children's statement but she did not apply it to
her report, she did not call anyone of the numbers she asked for that
have seen me with my children. Now they want me a single mother to
pay them three hundred dollars for giving my children to my ex and
not doing their job properly, I don't think so. I will not pay them
even if I had the money. She did not charge my ex. How is it that a
man that does not pay child support can have custody of my children?
How is that he says he cant afford to pay child support that he can
afford cars, trucks, new property, able to move his house to a new
location in the mountains to keep me from my children, and to afford
an attorney? My ex will not let me talk to my children as it was
stated in the courts, he has moved to a place I do not even know
where they live. He always knew where I lived and always had his
visitation rights, every other weekend, and half of all holidays, he
even had them when my son had races to go to. He is telling my
children that I have abandoned them and I do not love them. He tells
them that I am a drunk and a lazy ho. Well I do not drink and I do
not have anyone. I am defiantly not lazy. The court gave me all of
six weeks for visitation, four weeks in the summer, one week for
winter break, and one week for spring break. I think he should have
never received custody of my children, I believe he should have been
arrested for back child support, not rewarded for not paying. I think
the judge should have done more than sit in his chair with his thumb
up his butt. I think the CASA woman should have done more
investigating than she did. DHS knew I was not abusive, that is why
they gave my children back to me when he ran off with them. DHS did
their job by truly investigating me and my ex. They also spoke with
my children and sent them to counselors. They also sent me to a
counselor which knows I am not abusive but the judge did not want to
hear all of this, he had his mind made up before I even spoke. My ex
husband is a very charming con artist and a cheat, he lies, steals
(check his record he was arrest for agg. armed robbery at Walmart).
He says he cannot work, that he is handicap. I know this not to be
true I have pictures of him working. I know I have written a lot but
I need for you to know the history and what has happened. I would
like my children back home with the family they have always known. I
raised my children for the last eighteen years. If you need proof
here are the court cases; 21-257253-001D, Child Support 04JV443,
04DR2955, Last hearing for child support and custody 06C11, CO212007C
016351, Permanent Protective Order 06JV119 DHS court orders. I need
an attorney to get this back into court, get my boys back home to
where they have been raised. I love them so much and I miss them.
Please help me get my boys back, my six year old daughter really
misses her brothers, she has a hard time sleeping and she cries for
them a lot.

Is there any one on this earth that will help me go back to court?
Related to country: United States

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

I would like to know if there is someone out in this world who would like to help me bring my family back together. If they would like to help me go back to court? I am not helpless but do not have the knowledge to even know how to start. I know i just want my boys back, Please.

Here is a letter I have written; please read it!

I have a case that started out as child support and turned into a custody dispute. My ex started this back in 2005 by calling CPS and telling them that I was abusive and suicidal, this is actually him, the abuser, suicidal. I had just had a hysterectomy and was down and unable to pick up my little ones because of surgery, I had asked him to help me with all the children he refused. Then it started, he quit his job, he hired an attorney and tried to get a restraining order against me after he took my children, CPS got involved and saw what was happening for the truth, they help me get an attorney and they gave me my children back, I received a permanent protective order and child support took his drivers license, but he kept fighting by going to another court with another judge whom ordered CASA to come to my house, she showed up for a very short time and decided that I was not to have my boys that I was abusive to them only and I get all of 6 weeks per year to see them. My oldest son is 18 and spoke with this lady and told her his side of the story and she did not put it in her report, she also spoke with my 6 year old but that was not in her report either, she did not even contact any of the neighbors around. I have letters and witness' in Texas and in Colorado to prove I am not abusive to any of my children. I am a mother with 4 children 18, 14, 8, and 6 that I have raised until this judge and CASA lady decided I was abusive and my house was not appropriate to raise my 2 boys but it was okay for the other children and I have not been abusive to them, only the 2 boys. This is not right. I love all my children equally for who they are and what they want to be in life, I do not even use the words stupid or dumb in my house, does this sound like an abusive person? I am always encouraging my children to go to college. I am always there for them when they need me at school even if I lose my job. I don't care about the job as much as I care about my children. I have always loved them even when they make wrong choices. My 14 year old told this lady that I beat on him, because his daddy promised him the world and all the toys a boy could dream of, and my 14 told my 8 that he would beat him up and hurt me if he told anyone any different. I had taken my sons phone away and grounded him for misbehavior in school, and he was very mad at me for doing this and his father took advantage of this at the time, when my son came home he did tell me he was sorry and tried to call the lady and retract what he said and she told him it was to late for that, before he left he told the CPS lady he did not want to go and the what his dad had told him, but not one person wants to help me get them back, I do not care about the child support I just want my family back together. I am willing to do what ever it takes to do to have my family together, anything. I am asking you to help me please. There is more to this story but I do not want to take up all your time, so I just touched the surface. I live in Texas but the cases are in Colorado except the original divorce. The court case numbers are:

21-257253-001D, Child Support
04JV443,
04DR2955, Last hearing for child support and custody
06C11,
CO212007C 016351, Permanent Protective Order
06JV119 DHS court orders

Please call or email me for any questions or to do anything, I will do anything. ( jump on one foot, touch my nose, drink water and file papers) not funny I know but I will do anything to have our family together again.

Little Family...Big Heart Need to be together!!!
Related to country: United States

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

To Whom It May Concern:
I have been writing to as many people as possible to deal with this matter, I am a single mother of four wonderful children. My 2 boys that are 14 and 7 have not been paid child support in so long about 7500.00; I took the case to court, but what turned out to be a simple child support case turned into a custody case. I have a complaint about the process of the child support division, they did suspend his license, but that just made him mad, so he made statements as to I beat on my children, then the CASA volunteer got involved where she spent time with him and the kids but did not spend anytime with me and my children she did not even contact any of the people that live around us, she did speak with my 18 year old son but to her case, his words to her, were not pertinent to the case because they were nice things about the home and family life. She only took negative things to make me look bad to the judge. The child support agency still did not arrest him to send him to jail, instead we went to court and the Judge gave him custody. If this had been me, they would have written the riot act on me and buried me under the jail house. I am devastated because I do not have the money for attorneys; my ex- husband seemed to have a lot of money because he was able to afford an attorney. He has land, cars, and trucks and claims that he is not able to work, what a load of manure. He is trying to get Social Security and claim his back is hurt and he cannot do anything. He and I bought a race car for my 14 year old son to see if he liked racing and he did so my ex gets the sponsors to sponsor my son and the races cost about 200.00 and whatever is left over he keeps for himself. I have pictures of him working. I know this sounds like all I want is revenge but it is not I assure you, I want JUSTICE for me and my children that I have raised with no help from him. I keep my children clothed, fed, educated, and I love them all with my heart not my pocket book. They are separating four children from a family life; the littler ones are my biggest concern because they just do not understand how come a man can be so vindictive because he does not want to pay child support. My younger children are 6 and 7; the older ones are 14 and 18. Since our divorce in 1999 he has been behind in child support many times, so that is when he puts on his charm and tells me he loves me and to please take him back and when I did he would tell the child support division we were together so the back child support would go away. I have been told by many that he had used me and I finally had enough and stood my ground and told him no I will not take him back just so he did not have to pay child support, hoping they child support agencies would do there job, which they did not. I have to pay him child support now and he has my boys, I am very devastated. How can anyone just not help, how can they give an abusive person which has a permanent protective order against him take my children from me because I am not a millionaire, or let him get away with his abusive charm, because I stood up, I have lost my children which I love more than life itself, I bend over backwards to keep them happy and healthy. I have always done everything DHS has told me too, whenever my ex called them out, DHS never saw abuse by me and that why they gave me my children. So because I wanted the back child support for my children, I have lost them. Can you a least try to help me? How many letters and phone calls do I have to make? My children belong with this family, which is all I have left in the world, is my wonderful children. Who do I have to contact to get help? I have tried Senators, Attorneys, Newspapers, News crews and anyone else that will listen. I will continue to do this until my family is together again. I will not let go of them, they belong together. He took the orders from the DHS hearing and ignored them, he went to another case number and filed, he and his attorney have been playing the system.
Thank you kindly for your time,
