Langlade County Social Services Complaint
I am wondering how many others have had serious problems with Langlade County Social Services?
There are too many people there justifying their jobs by starting baseless “investigations” that lead nowhere. I know, I was one of many “victims” of this practice, and yet, even though they were informed that a foreign woman deserted her kids here, while they were still under 18, and left town with one of her many boyfriends.
We know this as fact, as we are related to this individual, and while it was reported many months ago, nothing has been done.
What is wrong with this town and the people? Lets get it together, and clean this show up !
Anyone else having problems, SPEAK UP !

I usually don’t comment on these blogs, but I wanted to share something. I totally agree with the dislike of people that abuse the system. I was married into a family likes this for a short time. Although it felt like forever. Neither of the parents worked, they both collect disability and SSI for their 3 youngest children. They are constantly at the doctor for all kinds of silly things. I feel if your going to be a hypochondriac, not just about yourself but for your whole family, you should do it on your own dime. Half the time they would go to the doctor get tons of prescriptions and not even use them. Instead like someone mentioned before, they sell them. With all the SSI and disability they have an estimated $2500 a month budget (Not to mention the food stamps) to work with. And somehow they were always running to everyone for money when they couldn’t make ends meet. They even had social services at their home every week, for a year to make sure their house was clean. Like a child’s parent making sure they are cleaning their room. These type of people I don’t agree with. Now I’m not trying to sound all “Holier than thou” because, when I recently divorced and found myself on my own with my two children, I did start getting food stamps and the medical assistance. But at that time I also decided I was done with minimum wage. While I work (only about 32 hours a week though) I also go to school full-time and take care of my children. I thank God everyday for my sister every day, who helps me out with the kids while I’m working or at class. I’m glad I work, because then I don’t feel so guilty for accepting this hand up (which is what I consider it in MY case), And especially for all the other tax payers who make this program possible. Because with it, even if my kids can’t have new toys or new clothes (also agree with the rummage sale shopping is great). Anyway, because of these God sent programs I know my girls aren’t going to bed hungry and that if an emergency should arise, I won’t have to add that medical bill to my plate.
Well-written. Thanks. As someone who has dealt with an addiction myself, I really appreciate this web site.
Statistically speaking, if you didn’t deal with social services so much, you wouldn’t have as big a reason for complaint. People only remember their bad experiences with government agencies. Nobody makes blog posts about “Good Experiences with Social Services.”
@AlmostInAgreement: Your comment has nothing to do with the topic and is merely a rant about your in-laws. Nice to see that Antigo is so well represented on the internet….
I myself have dealt w\ social services along with there gov. programs; for a few differnt very impornt reason. I had asked them for help the very first time way back in 2002″. I had 2 boys @ the time, I was working full time 40 or more hrs. a wk. There father my boyfriend did lived w\ me. He had a hard time wanting to work or ” hold” down a job so he stayed @ home. he couldn’t even watch the boys right, or safly. He would literally sleep all day , so i called s.s. for asstiance. Years later after soe bad choice o moving out of state & back again due to my familys opion. we ended up homeless, we had to give up our 3 sons. {“By the way I am no longer with the first boy, now i’m w\ a hard working man.}l After working very hard & starting completely over with nothing @ ALL. we now have our 1 yr.old son & we also went after my soon to be husbands oldest son who was almost 8 when he came to live w\ us in April after his mother went to jail. One thing I ment to mention was when my sister had to move out of town & we had to leave we ended up in a hotel rm. I called Liz Hinds to let her know & during this time we had been looking for our own place after moving out of the Antigo Hotel right before our son was born. Any-ways Liz was involved due to us being home-less 2 yrs prior to this point. We were very worried after having to be in the hotel, we honestly thought Lizs boss would say we had to put our son in a foster home till we had a permint olace to live. Well god really sent us a gurdian angel to lead us to our new home. Liz along w\ another person found a couple “landlords” that were buying a house for rental property. Our wonderful lanlord already agreed to let us move in before we even knew it. we have finally got us a home w\ the guidance of social-worker who never thought ill of us or assumed we would fail, wven though so MANY OTHERS DID. Yet now as we fight to keep my “step” son w\ us even though his mother doesn’t get out for over a year. His mothers side of the family is calling social-services so much that now they want to ck. “IN” for 60 days. It’s all due to the child finally knowing what a 2nd grder should know, he can tie his shoes finally & yes he has punishments when needed. We do not treat him like a “BABY” @ all. he sleeps in his own bed dresses his self etc.. Yet his sister who is 4 still wears a diaper, who when visiting her bro. here asked to go to the bathrm was told “No”. Who eats “junk food” just as her bro. did till he came here. is going throught exactly what her bro. did. “Being raised” Yet social service could care less yet we have the school along w\ the doctor among others that r 100% behind us with the improvemnt of our son compared to how he was living w\ his grandma or mother. Yet social serv. wants to do ck- ins w\ us!!!! OH PLEASE WORRY ABOUT CHILDERN THAT REALLY NEED IT!!!
if u couldnt keep your first kids, then y have more, sounds like its just for the federal funding u get, maybe try taking care of them too instead of just your soon to be husbands son.
It is so comforting to know that there are other people who have dealt wth Social Services and not had good results.
I know of one family that has been reported many times…….too many to mention. NOTHING happened. This mother lives with over ten people in a two bedroom house with her child……some family members are very known for selling drugs…..coke….meth…pot….
NOTHING is done…..and the mom and dad have shared time with this baby…..and mom still gets to keep her food samps….and gets aid for her schooling…daycare…..rent….utility bills….etc. Mom buys food for her entire family….and when dad gets baby….the grandparents have to go buy food for baby because mom spent it all on her siblings and household members….
When Social Services were called for this baby being unattended by mom…and baby being let alone outside by mom….and the screaming, yelling, drugs….NOTHING was done.
So when will they do aything? When this baby gets hit by a car, shot over a drug deal gone bad, ingested drugs left behind? When……
Do they not realize that these poor innocent babies are suffering? Do they not realize that these babies will grow up to do exactly what they were taught. If these young moms and dads are not held responsible for their bad actions…..these poor babies will suffer in the long run. I just pray it does not come down to any child hurt or dead.
Reaplying back to antigonatives comment…….. We made a mistake in moving out of town due to listening to others. Haye to tell yeah we dont get that much help federal funfing sweetheart!!!! Acutally we saved his son from growing up stupid and useless!!!!!!!!! He now is a normal 8 year old boy and by the way we did what was best for my kids 3 years ago and to from having nothing oh and with NO HELP fromthe government at ALL!!!!! It has nothing to do with help YOU MISSED the WHOLE POUNT ANTIGO NATIVE!!!!!!!!!!

excellent, your weblog layout style is really nice, I’m searching for any new template for my doudoune moncler individual weblog, I like yours, now I will go search the same template!…
Well I have one thing to say stay the heck away from that place all they know how to do is wreck family by taken kids out of the homes for No reason whatso ever… They come into ppls. homes and just saying stuff that isn’t true and than take the kids without a police officer with them..
Also they say they will help familys they don’t do what they say all they do is take kids away and than you have to fight your hardest to get them back.. You sit and do everything they want you to do and than say oh you can have the children back Wrong thats not how it works they lie about that.. because I know someone that still don’t have the kids home and they said oh soon.. Bull its never going to happen.. They don’t see how much this is hurtting the children leave the kids with the parents and have help come to the homes.. No just sit and hurt everyone that cares.. They don’t care at all… So I will never go and ask them for stuff I don’t care if I have nothing I will never ask them for help as long as i live..
Okay…I am taking a shot in the dark here…but by the way you write it would appear that your grammar is not so well and that you or someone you know has children and have lived of the system. Maybe you should go get yourself a better education…..and realize that Social Services do no just take children out of homes at random….they have a good reason to do so. If you or your friend..or both are working the system……then the chldren are better off where they are….Social Services has a problem with not following up on more of the complaints that are given to them about children living in bad conditions. Such be the case of children living with parents who work the system and sit around and smoke, drink and do drugs around those children. Children deserve to be safe, clean, and taught morals….and not be taught that accepting free money for drugs, alcohol and cigarettes is the way of life. Most importantly….ALL children deserve to be loved by parents with standards and morals. So, if you or your friend think Social Services are too hard……not so……maybe they are not hard enough of low life people who take advantage of the true tax paying, hard working citizens of this country. I work hard…..have two full time jobs……and as my son grew up…he learnd what hard work and ethical morals are.
Well I hate to say but they do just take children out for nothing..
and also I work hard also I have a full time job…. and also I would never use that system for anything even if i had no job & was living off hardly nothing.. They did take a child out of a home for No reason what so ever & now they are having a hard time getting the child back..
They went & just asked for help from social services & they turned around & just took the child from them.. They went & did everything they were asked to do and now they are being used & pushed around cause they won’t give them the child back..
Well i hate to say but social services don’t give money out any more they stopped that years ago. anyone that goes to get help has to get jobs now..
Also i was never with social services and never will be. all they help with is food and health care for the kids.. No money is giving out.. So you just don’t know anything about that place at all..
Who cares you have a job so does alot of ppl. & now its hard to get jobs so ppl. do go and get help at social services & so be it if they do its what they have to do to live…. Gosh give these ppl. a break they have to live too……
Langlade county Social services is a joke..
all social workers need to go back to school or just get the hell out of there.. I’m so sick of these ppl. taken children out of the homes when nothing was wrong.. Now this child I know has been though so much & Noone cares besides me & the parents… Gosh don’t they see they are hurting the child here,by not been at home with his family..
No all social workers think about is themselfs lets see who we can piss off today or lets see what child we can mess up by taken them out of the home… Gosh get a life and leave familys alone Langlade social services
Well one day that place will have No social workers cause one day they will all lose thier jobs because they aren’t doing the jobs right and I can’t wait to see that happen.. all social workers will be looking for new jobs in a couple of months unless sooner because they are doing things wrong there……..
Okay…seriously? The social workers do their jobs….sometimes they make mistakes….they take a child out of the home based on what they see and hear from other complains about the family situation. What I do not understand is that if they have over ten complaints about a parent being neglectful, or not parenting at all and putting the child in harms way…they do not take the child out of the home…they just check on the child and leave..not looking for drugs or the overwhelming amount of people living in the home…so I do feel sorry for the children that get put through the bureaucratic BS over a mistake….but I mosty feel sorry for the children who are being abused, neglected, and treated wrong…and they get to stay with the parents. May God watch over those children who are suffering because of wrong decisions adults make.
Well they made a big mistake & now this child has to sit and go though so much cause of them. Also look what it is doing to this child can’t sleep now wets pants & crys all the time cause ppl. that come over to the house the child sits & thinks that he is getting taken away again..
Ok how do you fix up a mistake that they make?? you can’t cause they already did the damage to this child.. We all sit and comfort him & tell this child its ok No one is ever taken you again.. Well just to let everyone know it just don’t work that way He is so missed up and Scared we can’t even leave the room to go to the bathroom with out this child yelling & crying & holding on to your leg for dear life cause he is so Dam scared.. Than ppl. sit & say that Social services is a good place bull.
This Family is so hurt & upset because its going to be Months now before this Child will ever feel Safe..
So ok put your feet in this childs shoes and see how he feels and than you will see What Langlade Social Services did to this child..
We get up 3 to 4 times a night with this child cause wakes up crying & says I can’t be here, and we sit and say yes you can be here & that we Love you.. and hold him half the night so he feels safe…
So ppl. don’t sit and tell me they do more damage to the child than anything these kids are hurt…
Also if they want to do a child Good than leave the children home and have ppl. come in to the homes and help the parents out. Leave the kids home where they will feel safe.. Stop & look what it does to the children being taken away for nothing..
Now I have to get my child help because of them this Child will never be like he use to be Happy, out going, talking all the time.. No all this child does now is cry & hold on to my leg all day hardly talks…
Social services is good for nothing……………………….
get this! my kid goes to school with a bruise on her arm. The school asks her how she got it. She tells them she was climbing on the counter (which shes been told 1000 times to NOT do that) and she falls. The dish strainer, which was full, falls on her. She gets a bruise on her arm but gets up and goes on her marry way. At that time she was 6. So, the school decides to call SS and have them come in. They do right away and they ask her what happened. She tells them. Then they call my son into the office, who at that time was 10. He also tells them what happened. They tell BOTH my kids that their liars and they need to stop covering up for their mom. (thats me). Anyways, they get my kids so upset and then send them back to the class. After school, i pick them up, just like every day and they tell me this the minute they get in the car. I think i honestly seen RED!! i drove straight over to SS and blew the roof off. I have never been so upset in my life. So now that they found out who i actually was…. when i stormed out of their office and went home, it was about 2 minutes later one of the ‘workers’ came flying up my driveway and i honestly think he would of got on his hands and knees and licked my shoes if i would of let him. i got in his face and told him… “thier are kids in the area that DO need your help. Mine are NOT one of them! Go do your job… and do it right!” Little do they know, this whole thing upset my daughter for about 2 yrs. Any mark she got.. from climbing a tree or play football with the boys.. she’d cover up with her pants (even if it was 90 degrees) or would wear long sleeve shirts so nobody would ever see them. It was a rough 2 yrs cuz my daughter is a tomboy! I have no use for SS. Their over paid and they dont do a damn bit of good…. except get children upset!
feelingIntertained this goes to you.. I’m glad to hear that you went right there to see them cause they think they are God… I’m also glad you told him off because I’m sure I know who it was.. because he came to my home just walked in and said I beat my son when he fell and hurt himself and he asked my son what happen and he told them but they still wouldn’t listen to me or him and my son was 3 at the time.. Well he ended up taken him and put him in a home for 3 months.. I have him back but I had to really fight to get him back. well when he came home he hasn’t been the same he was all potty trained but not no more because he is so scared cause everytime he seens a car drive up he thinks they are coming to take him away and he hides in his room or behind the couch.. he won’t sleep in his bed at all.. He was fine before they took him and now its going to be yrs. before he is back to himself.. they still come here to my home 2-3 times a week to see him and he is just scared… I have been trying my hardest to tell him things are ok but he just don’t understand.. I’m trying my hardest to get him to use the potty again, but that is real hard to do.. Where he was staying that lady has his clothes & i told them i need them back but SS won’t do anything to get them back… SS needs to help the kids that are being abused and stay away from the other kids that are happy and being taken care of… my son use to throw toys and that another reason they said they took him out is because he was hurtting himself No he wasn’t he would throw the toys at something once in awhile he would throw them at me but I would just take them away from him.. also they said that I wasn’t there for him when I’m a stay at home mom I was with him 24/7 everyday…
Tell me about I could go on and on with those ppl. but it just makes me mad I can’t wait because after the New year I’m telling them they are to stay away so I can have my life back and my son can be happy again….
Social services ppl. need to stay away from here and away from familys that care and take care of thier children.. Go take the abused one out of the homes and leave the rest alone………………………..
This is all so odd, because I know of a guy who has been smacking his girlfriend’s kids around for years now. I have personally witnessed it and trust me, it’s brutal. He lost custody of his own children due to child abuse and has a no contact order against him from the ex-wife. He can’t contact her of the kids for any reason unless they choose to after age 18. The girlfriend doesn’t care, she just allows it. These kids have had black eyes and stitches at the hands of this creep. Worse in my opinion is the continual mental and emotional abuse they suffer. I’ve called SS over and over and nothing is ever really done. I know that I am not the only one who has called on them either. The kids are still being abused. It’s heartbreaking. By the way, I am not some busybody and have never called SS on anyone else.
Well this is bull crap because believe me those kids should be taken away from them both the heck S.S ppl. are all on crack because they only do what they want to do… If I was you take the kids and walk in there and demand that they help these kids.. stop and think what these kids are going though and put your feet in thier shoes and you will feel bad.. also if either one of these kids end up dead you would feel real bad by not helping them now..
So take the kids in on Monday and get them help….
S.S. don’t do anything than I would be yelling for them too help these kids… If I knew anyone doing that I would be turning them in real fast.
When it comes to any child being hurt I will not think twice I would be on the phone.. call the police and report it when you see stuff like that because than they can call S.S.
Well I sure hope they do something if they don’t they all need to go to jail for not helping these kids.. SS ppl. only help the kids they want to help but the police can help these kids…
So go and get them help…….
I’ve tried everything! I called the police and was told that if I took the kids I could be charged with kidnapping. Plus, the guy rarely lets any of the kids out of his sight. The police say to call SS. SS says they will investigate but then the kids are still there. If you try to talk to the kids and ask them to tell on the guy, they clam up. When they were interviewed one time, they would barely speak. Then SS asks like we are crazy and making it all up. These kids are scared to death and like zombies when you try to talk to them at all. It’s such a sick situation and nothing I have tried to do has worked.
this goes to ddddd Well that is so dumb on SS part take the kids no matter what and put them in a home & sooner or later they will talk..
What the heck is wrong with these ppl. at SS & the police can’t they see that the kids were told or threaten to not talk or else & they are scared to say anything because they don’t want to get beat up again..
The kids need to know that it is ok to talk to them so they get help..
Well you need to record everything on a tape but don’t let them know you are doing it and take it to SS and tell them to listen to this.. and I would demand SS to get the kids out before they are 6 feet under……..
Good luck but thats what I would do is record everything… or go to the Da & talk with him on this and see what he will do if he won’t do anything than just record things when you go there… Gosh someone has to help these children before he does something real bad…. keep me updated ok…
My relative moved here from a different county just so she could keep her kids… What does that tell ya? She was “slow” and probably shouldn’t have had them, and SS where she came from, was threatening to take them away. But it’s ok, let’s move to Antigo, they won’t worry about it. Are you guys crazy??? This town is the most lenient I’ve ever seen with their Social services! Too lenient on the expense of the kids.
I wonder really if we as a comunity could ever or if it would ever be poss. to maybe do something like get s.s and “real family “people together maybe like work together as a team to come up w/ solutions on things that S.S. could do to “change/make better” and then they could maybe nexplain some of these situation that people r complaining about like nwhy there handled this way or that way. We could have a few meetings maybe evendo them monthly? I’m wonderin if we ALL work together to HELP/PROTECT OUR CHILDERN if we really coulkd make more of a differnce that way? I dont believe EVERY CHILD should stay in the home if itsd better for them to be placed elese were such as w/ a family member first I think \, but maybe just maybe we could/would get a better understanding and they may just get some ideas from us ti omprove there help to familys& childern.
Funny,,, * Tracy* from Social Services in another one sided Back Stabbing college educated no mind. And honestly there is no better way to say it. OH,, and when she doesnt want to make herself look bad,,, she will come right out and lie to your face. And thats the truth. She WILL take sides and NOT look at the whole picture.. No two ways about it. Very unprofessional… And not understanding one bit. Very two faced.. Shes one who honestly needs a TASTE of HER OWN MEDICINE.
Remember things are full circle in life.
Langlade County Social Services is a joke! They leave abused, neglected, hungry , dirty children with the useless parents and try to take well loved, clean, well fed children away from their families. do any of them realize how traumatic this is for a happy healthy child. a child in need of protection SHOULD grab that help when it hops into their lives but they prefer to mess with the kids who DON’T need them. when those stupid pinwheels were jammed into the ground to represent SS cases i had to wonder if those were CONFIRMED cases or just the cases that were opened because somebody wanted to get back at someone and mess up their life by getting SS involved. seriously if anyone makes you mad the best revenge is calling a caseworker, the more ridiculous the story the more likely they will take it as fact. at least that has been the story in many, many, many cases I’ve heard of.
social services is nothing more than a terrorist orginization funded by your tax dollars. these people destroy families, abduct children,and get away with it with abusive power,obviously they are not acountable to anyone for there actions. they can walk in your home without any evidence of wrong doing and disrupt your lives and family.yes,anyone can call just to get even with someone they are mad at and without any evidence these so-called social workers show up. so families beware of these terrorists and protect your children from these abusive and dangerous people
papa fly, remove the tin foil hat.
If you have read my previous posts, here is a very sad update. One of the girls in the home has now given birth to a baby and yes, the father is her mother’s boyfriend. This sicko has been her father figure and lived with her since she was five. The mother is still living there, as well as two young girls and a younger boy. Why has nothing been done?
ddddd
How old is the girl who gave birth? If she is a minor, this is a case of rape and the police should be able to get involved.
without_doubt, have you ever dealt with SS personally? somehow i dont think so because if you go with the dictionary definition of a terrorist it is this…An individual who uses threats in order to attain goals that are political, religious, or ideological in nature: this is done through intimidation or coercion or instilling fear> Anyone who has dealt with a Langlade Co. caseworker has probably had the same experience< they threaten you without grounds< they LIE and threaten criminal charges and they pick and chose which citizens they will go easy on or be extra hard based not on the case but on how much ass kissing and groveling they get out of a person.
Do you people really honestly feel this way? That you are all innocent, and that Social Services is guilty?
I know people who have moved out of the county, based solely on an unfounded interaction with Social Services in Langlade County. They didn’t move far, because they love living up here, just NOT in Langlade County. I JUMPED on the chance to get out of there. I hadn’t had any problem MYSELF but I’d seen it go on all around me. Ridiculous accusations, outright lies, usually because somebody got mad and what better way to make trouble than SS. the fact that they HAVE to investigate EVERY call they get, coupled with the fact that a person can stay anonymous, makes a DANGEROUS combination. People ABUSE the system and use it to get REVENGE on those who have wronged them. Some workers have been investigated themselves, that is how insane the system is. They know damn well many calls are like that and they STILL act without thinking, DESTROYING peoples lives. Not everybody can just BOUNCE back after they have been wrongly accused, in some cases humiliated at work, dragged into court, and fight to clear their name because somebody was pissed off at them. And YES it can go that far if they want to REALLY work someone over. They get you angry, emotional, and confused, and some of them like to kick you when you are down. When/If you cant keep cool BAM!! Now they REALLY have you, that’s when the threats of criminal charges come in. They abuse the power they have, and in some cases the power they DON’T have. It’s a tragedy that they can continue doing this to people but they make sure they scare people enough to keep them from actually DOING anything about it. If you don’t have money, are not part of the “good ol’ boy network”,or don’t roll over and play their games, you have no chance.
Fly…you say “the fact that they HAVE to investigate EVERY call they get, coupled with the fact that a person can stay anonymous, makes a DANGEROUS combination”……What is dangerous is if ONE of these calls goes unchecked and is a case of abuse. That child is then left to the hands of abuse……to me this is the greater danger of the two scenarios.
I have talked to people who have had Social Service check into them and their parenting. Were some of these cases unfounded and most likely the result of revenge for something on the callers part? Perhaps, they could also have been a case of something being misconstrued….either way….not in one of these cases that was determined unfounded, have I heard of a situation where Social Services acted poorly. If you don’t have anything to hide then you shouldn’t have to worry.
I would imagine that if you come at them with attitude, rage and a general bad attitude you may be making yourself look a little like someone who is afraid of what’s going to be found….therefore they may look at you a little harder and more indepth.
I am sure it is hard to be investigated when you know you are a good parent being targeted, but isn’t that better than the alternative?
I agree it would be awful if children in danger are left in a bad home. Look at some of these posts and you see it DOES happen anyway. And very few of the people I know who had bad interactions with SS CAME at them angry or defensive or with a poor attitude. They were PUSHED there. Asked if they used drugs “no” SS responds with “I don’t believe you” and they repeatedly called a liar, threatened with criminal charges, but they ignore the offer of a specimen for a UA. I have a friend who had an internship at Langlade Co. SS and while confidentiality prevented her from telling ME anything, she did reassure me that the cases I knew of were NOT unusual, they DO pick and choose who they will be extra hard on and my personal worries and fears about living in a county where this could happen to me were valid, realistic and actually highly likely. She gave it up because it was too horrible having to work with bullies and people with nasty attitudes.
Sounds like an issue ripe for exploration by the Antigo Daily Journal’s team of crack investigative reporters! Oh, wait…. Never mind….
Ok how about a different twist on Social Services.Let’s talk about the economic support people who assist clients in getting a medical card or food share etc.
Now I admittedly do not know if these workers get notification of some of this stuff from the state, hospitals, or pharmacy, but if someone complains to them I would think they should have an obligation to check it out.
Imagine this senerio: Large 2 parent family.No one works.The family qualifies for foodshare and BadgerCare because there is a minor child left at home,this is a good thing right?They need healthcare ,they need to eat,Oh yeah but they all need cigarettes and other recreational drugs so thank goodness for that medical card so we tax payers can pay for the Percocetes, Morphine tablets, Vicodin,Valiums and other assorted controlled substances, obtained “legally” by going to half a dozen Drs in different health systems to stay under the radar,which generate a nice income when diverted.
Now this might irritate some of you as it does me however let it go one step further..
How about this senerio.
End of the month running out of “their prescriptions” ,nothing to barter with ,no cash,NO POT,no gas in the car.What’s a person to do you might ask.
Simple…call an AMBULANCE to take you to the ER where as stated in another blog on this site they will not give you “any pain meds” (which is not entirely true)but they will give you some IV meds or injections of Dilauded or other narcotics they can control in the ER and send the junkies(did I say that out loud? bad me)home all at a cost of roughly $3500 each time to us taxpayers now you know who you are out there ,those of us who have to pay hefty premiums for our family health insurance only to have to meet deductiblles,pay co-payments at every Dr.visit or trip to ER and then pay an additional co -pay to pick up our prescriptions.
Now if this was an isolated event I would still be upset but not enough to rant on about it,but this happens sometimes up to 6 times a month and I am willing to bet my paycheck(well, what is left of it after they take my insurance premium out) that there are numerous ER frequent flyers like this all at our expense.
Anyone out there have an idea how to stop this rediculous abuse of the system when calling Social Services seems to not help???
Well they help the people they want too.. its Langlade county social services you are talking about.. also alot of people abuse the system & they get away with it.. because the people that work ther don’t give a darn..
Well also Langlade social sevices take children out of the homes that shouldn’t be taken out at all and than they sit and leave people have there kids back that are being abused & don’t care..
Also Langlade social services take children out so they can mess everyone lives up & get money for doing it..
Langlade social services people that work there need to go back to school & learn. because all they hurt is the children scare them to death & say stuff that isn’t true to the parents..
They need to help the children that really need the help & leave everyone else alone.
Liz Hinds is a really poor excuse for a social worker along with everyone else.. everyone is suppose to trust them heck know can trust anyone down there because they lie right to your face & also they are only out to get money off everyone…
So everyone is better off getting out of Antigo.
I will never trust them as long as i Live…
they sit here and say oh if you don’t do this & go talk to this person we will take your child.. than they say oh we don’t plan on taken your child out of the home at all.. Heck you can’t believe them at all because they change there stories everytime..
Langlade social services is a big joke anyone that been with them or trying to get help you won’t get nothing because they all lie. & help who they want.
better off getting a job & paying for things on your own & take real good of your children God help them all..
They sit & worry about a child that gets bumps & black marks from falling outside or running into something.. & than the next child that is being hit & abused they care less about..
So yes they all need help at Social services everyone that works there.. Liz, Kim, Scott, Tanya, Tracy, & so on……
I hate them all & will never trust them ever never did & never will………………..
Better off getting a job and paying for things on your own>>>>>>>> ya think?
……and take real good care of your kids….what a novel idea!!
Thats what I say people need to go out on their own & get jobs & get things for yourself.. stop depending on help all the time cause you aren’t going to get it not here in Antigo….. if you can’t find a job in antigo there is always Wausau to go there & live & get jobs…………. Leave the Drama in antigo & move on with a better life some where else……………..
STOP POPPING OUT KIDS and SS won’t have a reason to show up at your door!
I can’t have any children at all.. so there……………..
How about the person that really needs help and cant get it because someone who has two jobs, three cars, and 1 kid gets everything and dont turn in income. Dont raise their kid and lets those of us who work pay for it all so they can drink all the time. Oh and lets not forget they are on probation and have a NO DRINKas part of the probation
To Wisconsin…I hope you didn’t think I was aiming my comment at you. I was simply intending to add to your comment. I agree with you 100% and then some!
This goes to Or…. know I knew it wasn’t to me.. But I got help from social services yrs. ago & guess what people I didn’t stay on any of that stuff that long just a month But guess what I was job hunting like crazy because I wanted to better myself for my children & I did it I found a job & worked everyday from 7am to 9 pm came home at 3pm got ready for my second job & worked till 9pm sometimes later.. I didn’t sit & say oh there are No jobs I worked whatever job hired me it was money & it payed my bills… & put food on the table & whatever else we needed… but than I stopped working my second job & worked my day job from 7am to 10pm everyday & still made a go of it with 2 children.. But than one day my whole life changed in front of my eyes after working 14 yrs. making great pay I had a lump on my neck & the doctor took it out & cut all my nerves to my arm & neck & than my disc in my back was acting up where I couldn’t hardly walk.. my left arm I couldn’t feel a thing in it at all & my neck.. But I woke up and said This isn’t going to stop me I have 2 kids to support I went to work & did whatever I had to do.. I worked on a Potatoe farm & I was full time. I just keeped doing what I had to do & my back was in so much pain & my arm & neck but this didn’t stop me from working I also worked with a cracked ribs,sprained angle, crushed foot, & I got hurt at work with stuff too But Nothing stopped me.. Because I didn’t want to live on social services help.. But than one day I was driving home & I lost all my feeling in my legs so I went to the doctor & he told me I messed up my back big time that he was taken me off of all work.. I sat here & cryed because I wanted to stay working but I couldn’t if I wanted to stay walking I had to listen to my Doctor..
So if you can work get up and work & get out & look for a job because you just don’t know when it can all be taken away from you..
I don’t take pills for my pain I put up with all pain everyday… Also I don’t get help from social services because I had money saved from my jobs that I put away & I’m living off that.. I can’t sit long in a chair or stand long my left arm I can’t use it at all cause I have No feeling in it at all…
So like I say I pray to God I have my life & my children.. my children have there own lifes but they still come home to see how there mom is doing..
I have a home that I keep up on my own everyday…
Gosh so stop living off this stuff that social services gives you’s & Work where ever you can alot of jobs out there you just have to go and look……
Amen……………….
