The most important thing for every one to remember is that people need to stop giving up their rights.
If they take them away from you it is a crime, even if they intimidate you to make you sign. If you sign a paper saying that it is all right for them to take them away from you, YOU legalize the crime and You Give Up Your Rights. (Signing a Case plan or sign giving up the right to an attorney, are common ones).
 
The State, no matter what State you live in, MUST Show Cause in a formal hearing. In Vermont this is called a Merits Hearing. This hearing is mandated by State and Federal laws to take place within a few weeks after the removal of the children. The States must show merit (evidence) to their cause for removal of the children. In Vermont people are having to fight to get this hearing. Those who don't know about this hearing rarely get one, and those that do, don't get told that they can present witnesses and are not told the meaning or importance of this hearing. It is at this time the parent /s get the chance to plead their case, and call their witnesses. If you win this hearing and prove your case the children go home. Of course this is won by how well your lawyer or YOU work for you and present your case. The judge that is presiding over the case will then hear the evidence and your defense (answer to the charges) and it will be your chance to get all your evidence court documented. Only after this hearing can the judge order you to cooperate and fallow a case plan. Then if you have not been rehabilitated and case completed by X amount of time the State can TPR you. (Terminate Parental Rights)
