between keeping your child and the state kidnapping your child!
Child Reverse Miranda
REVERSE MIRANDA:
Dear Government Agent: I am exercising my right to
remain silent. Please do not coerce me into answering
your questions. Please call my parents immediately.
Mother: name/phone number
Father: name/phone number
My attorney: name/phone number
Mother’s attorney: name/phone number
Father’s attorney: name/phone number
Family Rights Advocate: name/phone number
OR
NOTICE TO GOVERNMENT AGENTS:
You are hereby informed that I have a right to have my parents present
prior to answering any
questions. I am now exercising that right and request that you contact
my parents immediately.
The back of the card should have:
The child's name
The parent’s names and contact information
My attorney: name/phone number
Mother’s attorney: name/phone number
Father’s attorney: name/phone number
Family Rights Advocate: name/phone number
(Several numbers should be listed; home, work, pager and an extra emergency
number. Home and work addresses should be given as well. The more contact
information, the better. This will eliminate the possibility of the
agent claiming he/she didn’t know how to reach you.)
