The caseworker has to make visits anyway, but with your call maybe the CW's eyes will be more attentive instead of lax because they are the grandparents.
This poor boy will be in my prayers.
Were the charges against L dropped?

The charges against *L* are being dropped and they haven't arrested *P* yet. IMO the caseworker is very lax and over-worked. Her first visit lasted 18 minutes from start to finish. She seemed more interested in the homes furnishings than in Brandon. She was impressed with his new room and his "stuff " thanks to my parents.
I spoke to her in the driveway briefly and shared my concerns...she wasn't impressed. She says since they have no arrest records and aren't strangers and are SAH parents, they are perfect for Brandon. Well dang, they never invite the police over when they are drunk and fighting and throwing dishes at the wall so no, they have no arrest records, his business is in a slump, so he does SAH refusing to look elsewhere for work. She said " Ms. McKnight, it's not uncommon or illegal for adults to drink in the privacy of their own homes." I mentioned that *P* has been there and she said that is a police matter and no longer a concern of CPS or mine.
I am done. Tracy
