In the first part of this series we talked about how high conflict parents may falsely accuse you of child abuse. How terrifying it can be to be wrongfully accused and how it changes your case. But what happens when the call CPS? How can you "flip" that into a good thing?

In the first section we talked about how to turn a false allegation into a good thing, but how can you do that with CPS? I mean there are all kinds of scary stories about CPS taking children from parents, there is a stigma attached to being investigated, and this can be good how?

Let's look at charges of Child Abuse with CPS.

Again as in our first example the ex decides that you are getting far more custody, visitation, attention, than you deserve so they decide a visit by CPS will surely get them a leg up on you. You will be busy explaining why CPS would come to your house or investigate you. The last thing you will be doing is getting custody, or so they think.

Out of the blue you get a call from a stranger, a CPS worker that wants to interview you, and your heart drops. You're first instinct is to be defensive. Don't be, they are doing their job and following up on information to protect your child. Let them know how glad you are that they are around to do this important work. Next, this is CRITICAL, let them know that you are in a bitter custody dispute. You understood these things happen but you didn't think they would happen to you. Things have been going well for you and you suspect your has become desperate and either called themselves or put a friend or family member up to it. This is the smoking gun they are looking for. It gives them reason to understand the motivation for the call and clear you.

CPS will interview both parents, the child, any other people involved. If the child doesn't report anything to them (that's the critical element), but all your ex's friends and family talk about the horrible person you are, CPS will conclude that this is a setup. They will know that this was a wild goose chase, the kind they see regularly.

Congratulations, CPS has just closed the case because the charges against you are unfounded. You have been "certified" (not really but you might as well be) by CPS and cleared. This is where the "flip" comes in. You now get to use this against the ex forever. Because you were falsely accused of child abuse and cleared by CPS, you get to boast about it. Your ex has done you a big favor. You may also have the right (like in California) to gain full custody because of false allegations. Even if you don't get full custody, you can use the fact they wrongly accused you to undermine their credibility each time you go back to court.
