[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 246298, member: 1550"] Janice, you are a GREAT mother. This garbage that is happening to you happens ALL THE TIME. People with bipolar kids who get hypersexual are accused of abusing them, for example. It's REALLY sad that we can't get help for our kids without being careful because somebody may decide we are abusive rather than desperate to help our kids. Know that every single person on this board believes you. Here's a fast story. My son is both adopted and on the autism spectrum so he, especially when he was very young, can seem like he is in his own world and he can rage. One idiot worker, who didn't believe he was Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), called CPS on us to say that he is unattached to us and that we can't control him when he has, what she called, a tantrum (that was putting it mildly). She saw him kicking and hitting me and thought I should be able to stop him. She sure didn't get off HER duff and try to stop him as he fell to the floor with his little arms and legs flailing. She just turned us in. The investigator spent five minutes with us before she left, rolling her eyes. She could tell he was attached to us, just that something was obviously wrong with him, and she knew he was in all sorts of services and scheduled for more testing. Get your information together so you can present all you are doing for him to somebody, if an investigator comes. Be calm and gracious and not defensive--they think being defensive means you are guilty. Be very cooperative. You'll be fine. And know that we all believe in you and that they are the incompetent ones, not you. [/QUOTE]
