You never think it’ll happen to you—until the knock comes.
Not from a stranger, but from a system that claims to “protect,” yet doesn’t ask questions before taking action.
Families across Alabama—and across this country—are being torn apart not because they are unfit, but because they are unheard.
Because someone made a false report.
Because legal discipline was mistaken for abuse.
Because addiction recovery, poverty, or even being misunderstood was seen as reason enough to remove a child.
This is the truth that Families Vs. DHR was created to expose.
This is the voice for the families who were never given a chance to speak.
Why This Matters
- Because DHR doesn’t always investigate.
They act. Quickly. And not always with facts. - Because parents don’t always know their rights.
And the less you know, the more power they take. - Because children are suffering in silence.
Removed from homes they cried to stay in, placed in systems they don’t understand.
You’re Not Alone.
This platform is for the mother who was silenced in court.
For the father who couldn’t find where his child was placed.
For the grandparent suddenly raising babies in confusion.
For every parent who said, “I wish I had known.”
We’re Here to Tell the Truth.
Not the state-approved version. Not the polished narrative.
But the raw, real, often painful truth about what’s happening behind the doors of DHR offices and courtrooms across this state.
And we’re going to talk about it—every week, through:
- Testimony Tuesday: Real voices, real stories.
- Know Your Rights: Practical guidance for parents.
- Fight Back Friday: Strategies, encouragement, and empowerment.
- Message to the System Monday: The words they don’t want to hear.
We don’t condone abuse. But we also won’t stand by while families are destroyed in the name of “protection.”
It’s time to hold this system accountable.

Could happen to you.
