[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 240244, member: 831"] Ohhh boy... My blood is boiling just reading your post. I would have been all over that counselor and she would have never forgotten it. I work at a school that sees way too many kids abused and neglected. Daughter, when she was 13, decided to go one of her school counselors and showed where I had slapped her on the arm. Ok, not the best choice, but this was after an hour of her SCREAMING that I was a child abuser. I finally blew and hauled off and slapped her arm with my OPEN hand with a "You want child abuse? Here, here's some child abuse!" So, the counselor called CPS. I'm not upset at that because I understood he's a mandatory reporter. So am I. Later that day, here comes CPS knocking on my door. Whatever! Come in and take a look around. Arrest me?? Sure, go a head take me to jail because it will be HEAVEN and PEACE compared to my life at home. Put her in foster care. In fact, PLEASE put her in foster care! I think some time spent in foster care would be GOOD for her.CPS dude changed his attitude after I said that. Last year, son was struggling with behavior in middle school. It was a tough transition from elementary school for him and he was acting out. One of his teachers calls husband. Poor husband never deals with the difficult child/school/therapy stuff and was blindsided. This teacher starts lecturing him on the phone and telling him it's his fault because he doesn't spend enough time with him. When I found out, I made Mt. St. Helens look like a pimple popped. I called the school and spoke to this teacher and in no uncertain terms told her to contact ME if she had any concerns. However, if she made the decision to do that she had better do her research and bring her A game otherwise our conversation is going to be very nasty and I will be THAT parent she will be talking about in the staff room for years to come. I'd call that counselor and realign her moons. [/QUOTE]
