mandated reporting
please don't be angry at the school. they are mandated reporters and if a child disclosed an allegation of abuse they must follow up on it and make a report otherwise they can be sued. thy are not supposed to tell the parents they called it in either (can you imagine if it really WAS abuse and they did?) anyway they did what they have to do. we are in a vulnerable position as foster parents but the people that investigate DLR CPS know this and if you have plenty of corroboration that you are a good parent and if the bruise fits what the child says happened then you should not worry too much. i am saddened by the predicament and my thoughts will be with you.
