When I was younger I had good feelings about my dad and mom. We love them more now. When I was in foster care people said bad and mean things to me and my brother. I have learned that the case worker Cheryl Hyink would tells my parents we didn't like them or feel safe around them.
My Dad and Mom never did anything bad to us kids. Why would the case worker Cheryl Hyink lie so bad.
Sometimes dads and moms leave kids because they can't fight the mean people like cheryl anymore.
I know my dad fought a long time for us. The Judge gave us back ,cried and apologized to my dad and mom. How can Cheryl Hyink tell stories for so long. My mom says "she doesn't like men or mommies".
We have been home for awhile now. Why was Colorado so mean. My dad says "it's not everybody, its just STUPID is everywhere. We just met stupid for awhile"
Miss Cheryl
Why did you lie to the judge? And why did you try to keep us in foster care? Why did you tell the judge we did not like Dad?Why did you lie so, he wont see us again? I lost my sister and my parents weren't doing so well. You did not help us, just made more problems. I will keeping praying for you and the other mean people
