I Have an Issue With DCF?

Question by UGH: I have an issue with DCF?
I live in Florida and I still have my daughter and refuse to let her go with them people. I am emotionally and physically drained with everything DCF and all the other agencies are making me do. I’m a 19 year old single mother with no job and right now no means of income. My truck is in the shop for a crazy ex putting transmission fluid in my brake valve. My total cost for truck repairs brought me to $ 1300. I don’t have a job because believe it or not DCF told me not to get one. Said it wouldn’t be in my best interest to start another task with everything I have going on. Which yes, it is a lot of stuff I am held accountable for, but how and I supposed to live with no income. I was getting child support from my dad but he lost his job and the $ 240 a month was stopped until he got a job. Thank god he didn’t pay all my life or I wouldn’t have that. Okay they got involved in my life because me and my daughters dad couldn’t stop running each other over with vehicles. There was no drug or alcohol involved at either incident. I was put in jail for “running” him over, but I really went to jail because he hid my kid from me and had three people fighting me to get to her. So I brake all ties with him until I move back to the town we were living in. I wanted him to see his kid and I probably pushed to hard because he ended up bumping into me with his car. So the next day I sign a DVI against him, worst mistake of my life. Investigator comes out everything is all fine and dandy. She believes it is unsafe living conditions so she opens up a case. I have been on it for about 4 months now. I have to do 3 classes a week two of which involve substance counseling? I don’t do drugs at all. Yes I use to do them when I was a younger teen, I was even in a rehab for weed. I have never had a positive UA. But yet I am doing substance abuse because and solely because I went to the rehab. That’s not even what I am pissed about I am labeled “cannabis dependence” And because I was molested when I was 5 my dad cannot visit me. Even though he was never charged with any crime he was cleared of all allegations against him. But yet I can’t see my dad once again in my life. My caseworker talks to me like a am the garbage in his trash. I just don’t see whats gonna help me with all the things they are making me do.

For one they don’t write referrals to help me out, like HUD or daycare or even education for me. But they will write referrals to make more classes and talk to more people. I don’t see the justice in the things there making me do. It’s not helping me be better at all. All I want to do is crawl in a hole and just wait it out. But because I am not gonna let them take my child from me I won’t do that. I need some advice I am young and not as impressionable as most might think, and that’s why I haven’t done anything stupid.

What can I do about the things I have put here I think there is enough info if not i’ll be glad to give more
