Hi my name is Farina Thompson, my grandchildren has been in the Oklahoma Foster Care System for nearly 6 six years. 5 years and 8 months to be exact- (3.2.2006). It's not right how this organization has dragged this case out. It doesn't make any sense to me what so ever.
I have 5 precious little grandsons, which they have done quite a bit of growing since being taken from their mother some time ago.
The State of Oklahoma has denied me continually my love-ones. This has been a terrible nightmare. Just awful and painful.
Judge Richard W Kirby, he's the Associate District Judge and Tara Bone of DHS, she is the supervisor has just made a complete mess of things.
I want everyone to know that on 2.8.2011-- I wasn't present in court. Not because i didn't want to be, but due to reasons that court was changed and i wasn't notified.
Believe it or not! DHS! Requested of the Judge to exclude me from further proceedings in regards to my grandsons case.
Guess What? The Associate District Judge He granted DHS the request. They kicked me out of the court room.
I'm there fighting for my grandchildren! How can that be in the best interest of the children? Not? It's just completely wrong! Where is the justice here in this world? My grandchildren are still in that foster care system, floating around and dangling in there. That's terrible! My grand babies aren't allowed to call me or hear my voice. Not allowed to write me letters. Nothing at all!
Children in foster care shouldn't be used as a monetary gain for that Title IV government funding. It's just - that the system is broken and doesn't care about the children and the families that they damage, and destroy. While in the process they alienate and isolate the children as they have me and my 5 grandsons.
I would love to see and hug my grand kids. Hear their voices. It's been since 2.16.2010. I haven't seen them since. I love my grandsons so much. We are separated and in pain. The folks of Position and in Authority has abused their privilege to serve their community. This is wrong how Oklahoma are treating me and my grandchildren! My family has suffered tremendously because of this. How they have kept my grandsons in the foster care system and allow them to be continuously floating in the system going from placement to placement and group home to group home all the while not allowing my grandsons to have any contact with me.
How Cruel Is That? What Do You All Think About That? What's Wrong With This Picture?
Oklahoma DHS should be and need to be restructured from the ground up!
I am asking everyone to please keep me and my 5 precious grandsons in your prayers. Please! As we are going through a most difficult times in our lives.
Thank You for taking the time out of your busy day to read my posts. I appreciate it!!!
A Grieving Grandmother
