"Watch out if you children get placed with robin or brian gasper, they are foster parent but constant drug use in there home and they mistreat there kids, all a set up. Also robin and brian will take money from the foster kids for gas to bring them places when they get 1000 per kid. How people like that can be foster parents is beyond me"
"Horrible location my son lives with his mother our DCF worker Sandy refuses to believe anything my son says just puts the blame all on my son saying he needs meds. My son only has behavior issues at home with his mother. He's constantly late for school (over 25 times) and they don't see a problem with that yet when I drive him to school (3 towns away) he's on time. If dinner is served at home it's not until 11:00PM but is home from work at 7:00PM I've had their neighbors tell me they feed him dinner and I have ordered food for him. I must be wrong too because nothing has changed ,I feel as if they don't care what anyone has to say and what they believe is what they believe no mater how much evidence you have showing otherwise. Sandy hasn't met with me, we had an appointment to meet at my house but she had an emergency call come in, she asked me if I could come to her office during my work hours I asked if we could meet somewhere close to my work instead but was declined because "the first visit should be at your house" last time I checked I don't live at the DCF office in Taunton. She couldn't explain why it was ok to meet at her office but not a public place closer to my work."
"Food for thought: Massachusetts has 10,881 children in foster care alone how many of those children stolen under false pretences for profit? $4,000 per child with special needs adopted out its discusting how many children are stolen with lies and placed in foster care so our corrupt government can make a profit everyone but the families makes a profit off the children who then suffer in abusive foster homes just so the government can make money sickens me dont believe me look it up!!!"
"These are very scary people. Most have not excelled in any academic way. No one goes to college to end up working for a twisted agency like D.C.Y.F. This is where the least competent people feel accepted and can find work. Expectations are low and they are accountable to no one. They are rouge workers who get off on tearing families apart. Pathetic workers with tremendous power."
"MY Story - the TRUTH. Attorney General - Maura Healey- "PLEASE LISTEN" DO NOT TRUST THE LAWYER'S ASSIGNED by DCF/COURT - they're the same. EVERY LAWYER I TALKED TO said: YOU"LL never WIN - Child taken ="LOST" - IT MEANS= "DEAD = TERRORISTS " 1) The LAWYER's ASKED us to lie to the JUDGE - a) to protect the our other child, not to be lost in the system. b) we won't win, even we proof, what they did was wrong c) JUDGES = DCF, YOU CANNOT WIN. 2) one child who complaint, DCF took both that way we don't fight in COURT, 3) I HAVE "PROOF"= WRONGLY ACCUSED & my child TAKEN AWAY, from me..... Because, they said we neglected her, SHE was NEVER NEGLECTED. PROOF: Ms. MJ, Attached you’ll find the Incoming Phone Log you requested.
