One of her first cases was an about-to-be homeless woman who called in a CPS report on herself because she didn't know what else to do. Linda and her six children met the author in an undesirable part of Phoenix at Motel 6 where they were staying. They were on their last paid night at the motel.\"Can you please do something?\" Linda pleaded. Nothing with CPS was ever easy; not the work, not the people, not the policies, not the outcomes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this memoir, the author shares her most memorable and haunting cases - many of which stemmed from families abusing alcohol and\/or drugs, living in poverty, and coping with mental illness. While we must keep CPS workers accountable when something goes wrong, she argues that we need to make it harder for drug-addicted parents to continue having children and gaming the system. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoin the author as she reveals the challenging, frustrating, and sometimes rewarding career of being a case manager dedicated to helping families in Child Forgotten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 25, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42727642726463,"sku":"9781956480696","price":34.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/43e42998ad61952a4139624b6fde4563.webp?v=1765115605","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/child-forgotten-hardcover","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
