Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Laurie, I went thru a year of hell, putting up with Social Services in my house, 3-5 days a week, every week. It was that witch that told Sami that she didn't have to listen to us......and if we even raised our voices, to call her from the school and tell her and she would be here within an hour. Then, when the witch was here, she kept accusing ME of being the problem......not because I already knew myself that the girls had ADD or ADHD.....she just kept saying that I was the problem and that there was no other reason at all. She would go down to the school and take Sami out of class for 2-3 hours at a time to "talk" to her...... So, ever since then, Gene got worse in letting the kids do as they please, his mother already let the kids do as they please.......and, because of what the witch said, I just get totally ignored around here because the kids think they can get away with everything and if I do anything, I'll be the one in jail, or, they'll go to a home where it would be "better".... Tonia -------Original Message------- Tonia,Can't understand why these power of be people can tell you things like that. Maybe you misunderstood the meaning if not I would look around for another one that you and the kids can relate to. You should demand respect from your children.Responsiblity seems to be lacking in our children today and respect for the parents. I think the system has parents so wrapped on threats of child abuse that we as parents feel trapped in how to disciplene them. Parenting is hard enough and when people of importance come in give alot mis guided info doesnt make it easier.I feel for you my firend.Remember to take a breather today.Laurie ____________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Tonia, I feel for you my friend. I had social service involved with my kids growing up. I was the bad one. Father was the angel. The only thing I can think up is find some different help for your family and don't stop till you get what you need and want. Kids should not be able to hold that kind of power over you. Take care my friend, Laurie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 I'm just curious....Is there a reason why my name is included in the subject line of these posts about social services? Not sure I understand what's happening here. Barbaraiowa97 wrote: Laurie, I went thru a year of hell, putting up with Social Services in my house, 3-5 days a week, every week.
