[QUOTE="klmno, post: 407766, member: 3699"] I agree with MWM & JJJ's posts- actually, I can relate to them the most I guess because they sound exactly like what I was going thru with old PO and GAL. They get God complexes, I think, because they know if it's ever in court, they're the ones the judge listens to the most and most likely will rule in favor of. I have a question tho- did the cps worker actually say that this report was for medical neglect? In some jurisdictions, if a kid misses a certain number of days in school, the sd HAS to report it to court or dss even if they know the kid was in the hospital or they were excused absences for other reasons. Once I remembered that, it made me wonder if that's what was behind this and cps worker, although still has to follow standard approach and procedure, really just needs needs to verify that your daughter does have issues that were being addressed and that's why she's been absent. If the issues are that she doesn't have enough of a transitional plan for returning to sd, the sd carries as much (if not more) of that burden than you do, don't they? Actually, check into regs in your state about when a sd is REQUIRED to evaluation a child, or at least approach parent to get permission, for IEP and accommodations. I learned years after the fact that difficult child's elementary sd had spent 2-3 years complaining to me and about me regarding difficult child but broke regs because they had been required to initiate IEP evaluation process if they felt that way but had never done it. As far as moving- if your husband needs to start over work-wise and financially, maybe you could use an exploration into where to move as a way to re-connect and start over. IOW, maybe you and he can explore new areas and while he's looking for work there, you can check into schools there and compare notes and then decide together which place is in the best interest of the whole family.
