They Unlawfully Took My Son. Exposing Fight for Government Accountability After CPS & School Injustice | Bigger Than My Story | Support my Legal Fund!⬇️⬇️
JUST IN! ⚠️🚨🚨Imagine your child is being harmed at school. You report it. Instead of protecting your child, the school system turns its attention to you.
We're told that parents should speak up when something isn't right. But what happens when doing exactly what you're supposed to do becomes the reason you're targeted?
When I raised concerns about inappropriate conduct by another student, bullying, and a hostile school environment affecting my son's emotional well-being, I wasn't seeking conflict. I was fulfilling my responsibility as a parent.
I didn't yell. I didn't threaten anyone. I simply brought my concerns to the attention of the New York City Department of Education. @NYCSchools
Instead of a resolution, I found myself facing an ACS investigation that was ultimately dismissed on January 16, 2019. @ACSNYC
About a year later in December 2019, my son was secretly removed by ACS without legal authority or jurisdiction when they circumvented his removal by using a third person at the Suffolk County Family Court.
Then in November 2022, after I suddenly became ill and was hospitalized, new questions emerged when I reviewed my radiology records in October 2025.
When two government agencies commit education document fraud, suppress evidence in family court in favor of a parent, continue a child welfare investigation despite overwhelming evidence in support of a parent and caused the non-consensual implantation of an external device that raises several questions.
The below image shows a non-consensual implantation of an external device while I was hospitalized in November of 2022.
Over the years, I have been secretly persecuted by the NYC Department of Education & ACS. @ACSNYC@NYCSchools
All because I advocated in defense of my son.
What would you do if advocating for your child came with consequences you never expected?
What medical, scientific, or operational purpose would justify the use of such a device without consent?

People say a good parent stays quiet and cooperates. I believed that once, too.
But protecting your child isn't passive.
It requires courage, persistence, and the willingness to stand for the truth when no one else will.
For me, it looked like organized documents that preserved the facts. 📁
It looked like puzzle pieces slowly revealing a bigger picture. 🧩🔍
It looked like waves that knocked me down but never carried me away. 🌊
It looked like walking through fire that refined my purpose instead of destroying it. 🔥
It looked like a lioness protecting what mattered most. 🦁
And it looked like climbing uphill, one step at a time, even when the journey felt impossible. 🏃♂️
My experience taught me that advocacy isn't about being loud.
It's about remaining steadfast when the truth is difficult to defend.
Never underestimate a parent who refuses to stop protecting their child.
Strength isn't found in silence, it is built through courage, resilience, and unwavering love and commitment.
POV: Me trying to rebuild my life after CPS, build a support community for CPS affected parents, hold the school system accountable, launch a website, grow five social media platforms, stay consistent in the gym..
...while pretending everything is "under control." 😂😂🔥
@tru_thprevails1 It's very unfortunate. Ours started when my son and I reported a misconduct by another student. It shouldn't be like this. I hope it was led by a resolution.
🚨🚨🚨JUST IN
Everyone assumes retaliation begins with CPS.
What if the retaliation started much earlier, inside the school system?
For years, I believed my son was targeted because he reported bullying. But after organizing timelines, comparing records, and reviewing court documents, a different pattern emerged. The evidence forced me to ask whether the retaliation began after he reported sexual misconduct, not bullying.@NYCSchools
I thought the bullying marked the beginning of the targeting, but the documentation led me to consider whether it was actually the continuation of an earlier sequence of events that I hadn't yet connected. Sometimes the most important discovery isn't finding new evidence, it's seeing the evidence you already had in the right order. @NYCSchools
Documentation changes everything. That's why preserving documents matters. Facts become far more powerful when they consistently point in the same direction.
I'll admit something: realizing this was devastating. As a parent, it's difficult to revisit events and recognize that details you once overlooked may carry far greater significance. ⚠️⚠️
No family wants to wonder whether speaking up for a child triggered a chain of consequences. If my documentation encourages even one parent to save records, request files, and build a clear timeline before it's too late, then sharing my story has purpose.
Sometimes the truth doesn't appear all at once.
It reveals itself with one document, one timeline, and one connection at a time.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: I don’t know what’s worse.
The fact that the NYCDOE would target a child for speaking up against bullying or target a child for reporting sexual assault.
The little girl had followed my son to the bathroom and touch his penis & he tried to block it.
But you know what’s worse?
That a Public-School Administration such as the New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) @NYCSchools would silence a child by creating fraudulent paper trail in his educational records intended to make him appear language impaired and incapable of advocating for himself through a special education classification of speech & language impairment.
And to make things worse, they would weaponize CPS, referred to as ACS in New York City by coming after a mother’s parental rights after reporting misconduct. @ACSNYC
At the time, I didn’t use words like “sexual assault.”
I simply reported what happened because I believed it was wrong and children don’t often understand that their actions have consequences.
I wasn’t yelling. I wasn’t making threats.
I was reporting an incident.
For years, I believed my son was targeted for reporting bullying.
This is what documentation and visual timelines led me to remember.
This was the truth hiding in plain sight in the ACS petition from 2018 dismissed on January 16, 2019, in the mentioning of Dream school.
The NYC Department of Education actions were retaliatory.
And I would have never gotten that petition if I hadn’t decided to walk myself to that New York County Family Court to request it.
Now one must wonder.
Was a child targeted not for reporting bullying, but for reporting sexual misconduct?
Over 1.1 million vulnerable children are entrusted to the NYCDOE.
If this happened to one child, how many other families have experienced retaliation after speaking up?

As a parent who once chose to homeschool my child, stories like this concern me deeply.
Homeschooling should not automatically be viewed with suspicion or treated as evidence of neglect.
In my experience, I worried that my decision to homeschool could be misinterpreted or used against me rather than respected as a lawful parental choice.
When labels such as "intellectual neglect" or even allegations of abuse are attached to homeschooling without careful, individualized evidence, they risk discouraging parents from exercising their educational rights. Every child deserves protection, but every parent also deserves due process and the presumption that they are acting in their child's best interests unless credible evidence shows otherwise.
Protecting parental rights and protecting children should never be treated as opposing goals, they must exist together in a free society.
Making a presumptive assumption based on opposing views is a dangerous ideology.
Parental rights is truly under attack!
@DFIPolicy@NatlParentsOrg@DefendingEd@family_policy@SusanBEdelman
This is why the Parental Rights movement is so important and why it is absolutely necessary that it is strongly constitutionally recognized that this kind of interference is regarded as an unconscionable violation of the rights of the individual by the power of the state.
Hi, I am Katia.
Welcome to KatiaForJustice.
Some chapters of life change you forever. Others rebuild you. I'm choosing to let mine transform me instead of define me.
I'm rebuilding my life with intention, returning to school to earn my bachelor's degree in Public Affairs, strengthening my mind and body, and documenting the journey every step of the way.
I was already accepted to college in April 2026 due to some smart decisions I made right before my son was secretly taken from me.
My mission is bigger than my own story. I want to build a community where parents affected by CPS can find hope, support, practical resources, and the courage to keep moving forward.
When the goal was to break me, God is restoring me.
I also believe accountability matters. When public institutions make wrongful decisions, transparency and fairness should never be optional. By sharing my journey, I hope to encourage others to keep moving forward, even when the path feels impossible.
So, YES, I will continue to hold institutions accountable for unscrupulous actions, while also reminding CPS-affected parents that CPS may have disrupted your life, but it does not define your worth or your future.
If you're rebuilding after hardship, know this: your past doesn't have the final word. One step, one choice, and one day at a time, your future is still yours to create🤍
Some people may not like me saying this, but it is my absolute belief that when a child reports bullying, the parent advocates on that child's behalf, and the public school administration responds by committing special education fraud to make the child appear developmentally delayed and unable to advocate for himself, while simultaneously using CPS, referred to as ACS in New York City, against the parent, THAT is not the conduct of a school system seeking a resolution.
The fact is, I have emails upon emails documenting my efforts to obtain a school safety plan, request parent meetings, follow up with district officials, and communicate with the Chancellor's Office. Despite those repeated efforts, the New York City Department of Education never offered a resolution. @NYCSchools
Read the attached three-page email thread from October 09, 2019, with Lissette Roman from the NYCDOE Chancellor's Strategic Response Group. She asked me to identify every NYCDOE official I had previously contacted for assistance, and I did.
I didn’t contact just 1 or 2 people within the NYC DOE. @NYCSchools
It involved email correspondence, telephone conversations, USPS certified mail with return receipts, in-person district visits, and communications with over THIRTY-FIVE NYCDOE's personnel and officials.
At the time, because ACS had become involved in my life on December 20, 2017, following the unauthorized release of my son's special education records, my only goal was to have those records officially addressed and closed so we could move forward with our lives. @ACSNYC
What I did not know when I sent that email on October 9, 2019, was what would happen afterward.
The New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) would secretly collude with CPS, referred to as ACS in New York City, to use someone I trusted to circumvent the unlawful removal of my son. @ACSNYC
The NYCDOE CANNOT claim they were unaware of my allegations or the unauthorized release of my son’s special educational record. The documentation shows otherwise. @NYCSchools
I never heard from Lissette Roman again.
It is my absolute belief that the bullying my son experienced in school was NOT bullying.
It is clear to me now after observing the patterns that unfolded throughout the years, including now that it was CHILD ABUSE.
It doesn't take years to find a resolution when the desire is there.
Follow the trail of evidence.

In January 2018, a New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) psychologist told me, in front of other school staff, that my son still had an active special education case in his educational record. @NYCSchools
I immediately emailed the CPS caseworker. @ACSNYC
That statement mattered because I had received four separate special education case-closing documents, two of them issued after January 2018. I also researched CAP Code 444 on January 12, 2018, the classification my son was assigned under. My research indicated that CAP CODE 444 was for New York City Department of Education students actively receiving special education services. Receipt below ⬇️ ⬇️
After reviewing educational records, email correspondence, learning the special education process, and comparing everything with the violations I continue to experience today, I believe the NYCDOE never actually closed my son's special education case. I further believe my son's secret IEP was revised without my knowledge or consent.
Between February and May 2018, I repeatedly requested an Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE) from the New York City Department of Education (NYC DOE) committee on special education office to address the unauthorized release of my son's special education records. @NYCSchools
Then came an email dated May 14, 2018, at 4:59 PM the Committee on Special education (CSE) chairperson, Nicholas Chavarria stated in the email below: ⬇️
“In response to your letter of April 18, 2018, yes, the CSE can arrange for independent evaluations to be done by contracted vendors. Please respond to this email, so we can start the process.”
That immediately stood out. ⬇️ ⬇️
That is an indirect admission of wrongdoing because Independent Educational Evaluations (IEE) CAN ONLY be offered to students with ACTIVE special education cases.
As a Committee on Special Education (CSE) Chairperson, Nicholas Chavarria had DIRECT access with my son's special educational records. There is absolutely NO WAY he could have offered an IEE if my son did not have an active special education case.
The NYCDOE must have realized how bad Nicholas Chavarria had FUCK UP because by June 2018, the conversation shifted to him offering an evaluation, something I never requested. My concern remained on the unauthorized disclosure of my son's records and his placement in special education without my consent.
The camel’s back must have broken that on February 14, 2019, when I emailed Nicholas Chavarria again to request a FERPA hearing, I learned Nicholas Chavarria had RETIRED on September 01, 2018.
YIKES! 👀👀🤮
Viewed individually, these events may appear unrelated. Viewed together, they form a sequence: an acknowledgment of an active case, multiple ‘closing’ documents, an offer of an IEE, a sudden change in direction, and the disappearance of a key decision-maker before questions could be answered.
Avoiding accountability I see. ⚠️🚨
Till this day the NYCDOE are STILL not acknowledging their wrongdoing. Does December 2019 ring a bell? Secret collusion❗@ACSNYC@NYCSchools

I didn't lose faith in CPS overnight. I lost it after watching what happened when I asked them to protect my son.
Like many parents, I believed CPS, known as ACS in New York City, existed to protect children. I had never been the subject of a CPS investigation until December 20, 2017, after being targeted by the New York City Department of Education. @NYCSchools
What happened next changed how I viewed the entire system.
In my July 3, 2026, post, I explained why I believe the NYC Department of Education used an "IMMINENT DANGER” narrative on December 21, 2017, as a legal strategy. At the time, I didn't understand the significance of those words or the pattern that unfolded. @ACSNYC
I emailed an ACS case worker explaining that my son had been bullied in school. I reported what I believed was special education fraud by the NYC Department of Education. I explained that I had been given educational records leading me to believe my son's special education case had been closed. I even submitted a psychiatrist's letter confirming the bullying and asked that the school investigated.
I expected those documents to help protect my son. Instead, I encountered an agency that altered its own paperwork, investigations, and procedures to create the appearance that I had a prior CPS history.
Within 24 hours of my first child abuse and neglect allegation on December 21, 2017, there were two additional allegations with two different Case ID numbers. Case ID# 26882696 is the initial investigation case# from December 20, 2017.
I didn't redact them because I have nothing to hide. Names have been redacted. Please see the documentary evidence below. What you WILL see is how CPS, referred to as ACS in New York City, redacted 53 out of 57 pages of their investigation progress case management notes after my request for their records. @ACSNYC
Imagine a child protection agency REFUSING to protect a child but financially benefited from said child.
Who benefited from making me look like a repeat child abuse offender?
You just have to follow the money.

The biggest threat to a child isn't always where authorities tell you to look.
IMMINENT DANGER. It's presented as a legal standard designed to protect children from immediate and serious harm. But what happens when the very systems entrusted to protect children become the source of that harm?
CPS, refer to as ACS in NYC often claims authority to act in a child's "best interest." My experience forced me to reframe that belief. @ACSNYC
On December 21, 2017, while my son was at school, the New York City Department of Education created what became an "imminent danger" loophole. During his first ACS interview, my son honestly told the case worker he was being bullied at school. @NYCSchools
What happened next still raises difficult questions.
After the ACS case worker left, a school social worker alleged my son wanted to hurt himself. @NYCSchools
My son has NEVER EVER expressed that in my care.
Soon afterward, while in school, he was transported to the hospital under that allegation.
Intimidating a child into silence by using emergency services as an intimidation tactic for speaking up about the abuse he was experiencing in school is dangerous.
The message can become devastating: stay silent or face the consequences. @NYCSchools
That kind of experience teaches fear instead of trust.
It can teach children to hide the truth, minimize their own well-being, and prioritize the motives of others over their own safety.
I have the December 21, 2017, police report. I have the Mount Sinai hospital records documenting that two hospital psychiatrists believed my son was a victim of psychological bullying. (Shown Below)
The more I learn, the more I grow, and the more I know about the tactics ACS and schools use in their abuse of governmental authority.
Psychological bullying is aka, EMOTIONAL and PSYCHOLOGICAL abuse and it effects a child’s mental well-being.
This hospital document was emailed by me to both the Public-School Administration and ACS.
This false allegation became a loophole and legal strategy ACS used to claim my son was in IMMINENT DANGER of harm, NOT AT SCHOOL, but in my care.
If I am lying ACS can provide their investigation progress case management notes, and ONLY MINIMALLY REDACTING what’s required by law. @ACSNYC
If fact, I welcome it.

I questioned the reasoning behind denying parents access to their children’s medical records. Slowly something will be introduced to rationalize the thinking. If parents are denied the right to access their 12-year-old medical records, then what is the goal and intent for the future?
What unforeseeable laws would be passed with the intent of making these actions justifiable now.
Give a 12-year-old adult responsibility now, then expect a future law to support this. Would they allow a 12-year-old to start making medical decisions?
Would they allow a 12- or 16-year-old to get married?
Would they allow a 12-year-old to consent to surgery without parental knowledge?
One thing I have learned is to look at patterns.
And sometimes it may take years for the full effect of the pattern to take place. But this does not look good for the future of children.
Giving children the right to make adult decisions but treating them as children for the benefit of CPS.
Not too long ago a mother had a CPS investigation for allowing her 12-year-old to walk 1 mile to the store, yet said child can access their medical records on their own and do WHAT?
Something about this is off.
A mother in Oregon is told she can no longer have access to her child patient portal
“I just got done taking my son to the doctor and they tried telling me at the front desk that I don't have access to his patient portal anymore because he just turned 13. Are you kidding me? He is under the age of 18. He is my child. I should have access to what his medical stuff is. That is insane to me”
This is real and because Democrats are trying to twine away parents rights from their own kids
Here’s what happens at age 13 in Oregon
Oregon Minor Consent Laws kick in, minors gain rights to confidential care in certain areas without parental knowledge or consent
- Age 14+: Can consent to outpatient mental health, drug and alcohol treatment
- Age 15+: Can consent to general medical, hospital, dental and surgical care
- Any age: Full confidentiality for reproductive health birth control, STI, HIV testing and treatment
Systems like MyChart and Epic often default to restricting or segmenting parental (“proxy”) access starting at age 13
Who needs enemies when you have Democrats. They are literally restricting you from knowing what your own kid is doing medically
When CPS refuses to protect a child,
But alter their internal records to collect federal funding.
It was never about child protection, which explains why child protection never took place.
Collecting federal funding for ‘child protection’ while altering documents for financial benefit speaks volumes about the intent of malice and how many children are being left being by the system.
