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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vicki Solochek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1736722549\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781736722541\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Authors' Tranquility Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.41d","brand":"Vicki Solochek","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48217537577215,"sku":"9781736722541","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c984ef9a-0343-4171-9f36-dfe9e0db6750.jpg?v=1771997860","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/child-forgotten-vicki-solochek-9781736722541","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
