I am primary care giver for my daughter. My oldest (8yrs)daughter is being bitten on by her mother. It has been confirmed that her mother is biting her based on testimony from my daughter and her mother. The bruises on my daughter have lasted for periods lasting more than 32 days and cause her enough pain to make a report to her teacher. Visitation is not the main concern, my rights and my child’s are being put aside. DCS has been involved and has defined the actions taken by mother as abuse. Pictures, doctor reports, teachers written testimony have all been provided to the court and yet no provisions have been put in place to provide protection or a safe environment for my daughter simply based on the mother saying "we were just playing". We are now at the point where my daugther and I are being called the cause of this biting.
My youngest dauther was there as a witness and told the mediator that "they were not playing" and in reply the mediatior told her "yes they were".
This is abuse that is being passified and continues. this system has tied my hands and i have no way to protect my daughter.
I am a single black male and my children have been with me from day one. i feel like this is discrimination and a violation of my rights as a father and a violation of my daughters rights.
PLEASE HELP ME IN ANY WAY YOU CAN!
