You seem to need to learn more about CPS. You do not "put" children in CPS. CPS can take control of a child and place the child. Placements include relatives, friends, and foster homes.

CPS is not a place to place your children. You might be considered to have abandoned them and that could have consequences for the other three children.

There are services that can help you if you are having trouble with your children. You might try your church for suggestions, if you have one. Also, you can call CPS and see if they will refer you to some of the services that they use. I have never had anyone try this, so I don't know if it will work or not.

Good luck.
