RE: Breaking The Illusions And Seeing the Bigger Picture For Dummies(Abridged-Last Part).
Yes, it is common in Canada. The above happened in the town where I live. In just my small town alone I have had 2 really good friends go through CPS problems. Anna (above) had just gotten her daughter back from 3 years in Foster Care right before I moved here and met her and she became one of my best friends. And then another really good friend, whose daughter was best friends with my little girl, went through a horrible investigation with them while I was living here. And then there was the young teen mom that I let move in with me here while I went to court with her and tried to help her get her baby back from foster care. That's 3 people I know really well in one small corrupt town!
Most people don't realize just how bad it is in Canada, and how much we need to know our rights, and what to do if they show up at our doors to protect our families.
Several of the stories shared by people here on Steemit are right here in Canada. This list includes my friend Anna's story, and other Canadians who told their stories here are

and further stories from me:
Yes, I actually learn more through Steemit, I never heard this kind of stories (happening in Canada), and i guess news dont really pick up this kind of stories too so i definitely learning more thru Steemit
Its really disheartening to read/realizing that such situations are in Canada as well 😐
Thank you for the links and accounts. I will read more often.
The media almost always refuses to write stories on behalf of parents in these cases. It seems like almost everyone assumes that if you are under investigation and/or lose your children to foster care, that is must mean you deserve it that you are a bad parent.
I did not know any better until I met Anna about 10 years ago.
