oh and please do not get me started on DSS..What a waste of a new building. DSS worker actually went and picked mom up from jail and came to court to say what a good mother she was. DUH!!

People never look at the reality of things, restraining orders are just paper with a judges signature saying "stay away." It doesn't protect victims at all from immediate danger. As soon as the person with the restraining order against them decides to break the order they do their damage with a physical attack or worse murder. We need law enforcement and the judicial system to take restraining orders seriously and add prison time for people how don't want to comply. Someone disregarding an court order is worst than a drug dealer or drunk driver, in regards to the fact they are served the papers and they decide to purposely break the order anyway. No bail should be available until a hearing so the court can determine if they are an immediate danger to their victims safety and be aware of the repercussions of the disregard of an court order. A minimum of 5 years should be a sentence for these folks.

So sad. Why did the grandfather ever leave her alone with the poor child if she was that bad? It'd be interesting to know why she lost custody of her other children. Could be something beyond her control and maybe losing this girl just pushed her over the edge. At least the little girl no longer has to suffer.

It is such a shame that the courts (judge) couldn't see something like this was possible. No amount of "why's" can change anything now.......but HOPEFULLY it will put a sign in front of judges having to make visitation decisions in the future to "put the child first". I know they always want the "mother" to have custody or freedom of visitation. I had a friend who spent thousands of dollars fighting Social Services in order to adopt 2 children who had been placed in her care as a Foster Mother after being taken away from their mother. She finally won the case. The children had both been terribly abused, but SS thought they should be with their natural mother. SICK THINKING!!!!

If a woman doesn't have custody of her kids from a previous marriage, you don't want to marry her.

I know a man who has visitation rights to his two children every other weekend, but he has to have his mother or father with them for the whole weekend. This is in Florida.

I have posted on this subject many times. Our Court system is BROKEN! The judges DO NOT have the best interest of our children as their main objective. Its all about "fairness" and who gives the best "show" in court.

No one has said that the woman is mentally ill, the woman is simply a violent person never mind the gender.

When her day in court arrives, her state appointed attorney will claim her to have mental problems and will have her appesr in court dressed like a primp old school teacher hoping to get leniency from the court and she will since our court system is below par.

Is so sad that North Carolins wwill not approve grand parents rights, I am a grand mother that has not been able to see her only granddaughter since she was 2 years old. My son was killed in 2002 his daughter was 15 months old, he was our only child. But the state of North of Carolina dose not they my husband and I should be able to see our only grandchild. That a shame because her granddaddy is dying with cancer and will never know what she look's like.

She "tried" to commit suicide? She didn't "try" hard enough.
