Kids Put in Foster Home

Kids put in foster home today by DCFS today. They say bc of snakes being venomous.

No way Georgia! I thought as long as your snakes were in escape proof cages, in their own room and labeled as venomous you wouldn't have any issues. That sucks big time. What are you going to do?

Yes way. Master locked custom cages with polycarb glass.

**EL Ziggy** · 07-18-14, 08:22 PM

Man I'm so sorry to hear that. Best wishes brother. How did they find out?

Georgia · 07-18-14, 08:28 PM

A "friend" called them. Im in my legal right to own what i have.

Georgia · 07-18-14, 08:31 PM

Its absolutely unreal how these people are

SnoopySnake · 07-18-14, 08:35 PM

Wow, that's ridiculous.. I'm sorry to hear that and can't imagine how you must feel

What are you planning on doing about it?

Some "friend". Who needs enemies with friends like that?

Im looking to press charges and sue the **** out of them.

Georgia · 07-18-14, 08:58 PM

The audacity of these ppl when it comes to reptiles is amazing

Damn... Let's put this 'friend' in one of those cages and tell him to try to escape!!!

**** man, that's horrible.

As an alternative, have you thought about someone homing your snakes, while you fight it. Then, fight to have your snakes in the house with your kids? May show some initiative with the courts, and judges love people that try to solve there own problems.

Then later you can go after child services for defamation of character, etc..

Yeah thats something im looking into. Its just a food idea to find the RIGHT person thats trustworthy.

Maybe instead of plotting to sue the **** out of then you should get your kids back

Jim Smith · 07-19-14, 09:17 AM

I strongly suggest that you remove the snakes and get your children back into your home now. You do not want to start a fight with DCFS as they do not play by the same rules. You will not win and the children will certainly be negatively affected. Whether it's fair or not, always keep your family first. You can always sort things out later about keeping hots with children in the house, but right now your priority must be for your children. Good luck and please keep us posted.
