What is a DYFUS case?
I went back and
EDITED my earlier post to clarify. I'll post it again:
I was referring to DYFS (pronounced Die-fiss) which stands for Division of Youth and Family Services which is specific to the state of New Jersey, USA. It's simply the government agency that intervenes when a child is in jeopardy or the parents are deemed unfit to raise a child. Thought it was a Federal agency, my apologies. I don't know what the PA equivalent is.
Either way, if neither you nor her were fit to raise a child, the government agency in your jurisdiction may have taken the kid away, so you dodged a bullet of sorts. Sad when these things happen.
