Although many social services agencies claim to reach out to families in crisis, they often exploit families in crisis. In one case, a New York family fell victim to a carjacking at knifepoint. Police apprehended the perpetrator, but not before he had injured some of the children. When social services arrived on the scene, instead of offering aid to the family in crisis, they took the children into state custody.
In a Tennessee kidnapping incident, social services added insult to injury by taking away a child who had just been reunited with his mother. Maria Gurrola was stabbed and her four-day-old son was kidnapped from her arms. Later, the perpetrator was apprehended and the boy was retuned to his mother, but not for long. The little boy only had a few moments with his mother before he was forced from his mothers arms a second time, this time by social services.
