Samira had to say bye to her aunties and uncles...she's currently curled under a blanket bawling her eyes out. She doesn't want to be touched or held, and keeps occasionally running to the door, banging her little fists on it, crying for them 😢😭 I will never understand why we don't get custody of them. We've tried but keep getting denied. My 7 year old brother gets beat to where he has bruises and is constantly degraded, called a faghot, called stupid, etc. My 6 and 7 year old sisters get their hair yanked to where the roots are weak and the one has little bald spots starting, get brushes smacked against their heads, get smacked across the face, get put in time out with peed on clothes (the one gets nervous accidents and they use that as a punishment...time out for an hour, sitting on her butt in peed in clothes...she's had constant UTIs), etc. My 12 year old sister is degraded, has stuff thrown at her, has been pushed down the stairs, etc, and has even told the judge and her personal counselor that she's thinking about committing suicide if she has to go back. She's been sexually assaulted under my dad's gfs care and is not to be around offenders but is constantly left alone with our grandfather, who is a registered sex offender against a 9 year old. Each time they come for a visit they have bruises and cuts and use the same excuse of "I fell off a chair"...I've lost faith in the system for failing to help my siblings. We called CPS last time and they called my dad, told him what was said, AND then set up a home visit time (they're not supposed to do that) where they never searched the home, looked over the kids, or spoke with the kids. It's bullcrap...they suffer, we can only watch since no one will help, and my daughters heart breaks over and over again because she misses them...
