they have been removed and given back to her SEVERAL times. she now has 2 grandchildren...by her 16 and 15 year old daughters. they were knocked up by two grown-a** men (one 26, the other 22) and nobody did anything about it here. they even listed these grown men on the birth certificates, name/age/everything and nothing was done.

we had one of the girls as a foster child for 3 years. we begged to keep her but her mom wanted the check for her (and actually told the social worker that!) and they gave her back. we tried everything, nothing worked...
