You have NOTHING to fear at all. The social worker wil talk to you, and find out what is going on. Make sure you have all of tnhe numbers of Cassie's dr's on hand, and give them to the worker. She's required to call and follow up with any numbers you have. Also, if Cassie has a teacher that she did very well with, or even a teacher's aide or therapst that has seen her in her school environment when Cassie doesn't hate the school, give them that person's number and a way to contact them. Even if the teacher is in another state, they will follow up. Let me know how it goes, ok hon? BTW, and FWIW, I know how you feel...truly....mad, sad, scared, depressed, the whole slew of it. Take care, and feel free to email me if you just need to talk... banesbaby1@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 Thats right, a teacher is a mandated reporter but it was probably the school social worker who made the call after a discussion with the teacher( they get stuck with doing this to justify a paycheck instead of finding something better to do). Anyway, CPS probably will not release the name of the reporter to " protect them " I hate all of this bull-sh*t. The school is supposed to be helpful, not hurtful.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2001 Report Share Posted November 18, 2001 Were they actually able to talk to your son WITHOUT your permission??? I find this whole thing very out of line. Do you think you need a lawyer? Penny....ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's gonna have to be free or very cheap right now. And that's probably going to be a bit of an obstacle. And yes she just showed up at my son's school. He was NOT HAPPY. Neither was I. But they claim they are required *by law* to investigate every *claim* and THEY will let YOU know when it's over. When you know you haven't done anything wrong it's maddening. When you know the stories about how they have sometimes twisted things to suit their own purpose, it's scary. Cinnamon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2001 Report Share Posted November 19, 2001 Penny, unfortunately CPS has alot more rights than they really should. They can talk to your child without permission at any time if they feel there is a need! I really hate CPS sometimes!
