Social Worker Made A Surprise Visit...

I don't think random neighbors or strangers should be able to get social workers involved without real proof, like photos (not just what they SAY). I hate nosy people, I have said before and I'll say again that there needs to be ways to punish nosy people. Most of the time, the drama caused by some nosy person who has no life goes WAY BEYOND anything that would ever occur otherwise! It would be so nice to slap em back with it, cause a load of drama in THEIR life that they now have to deal with. Make them see how it feels to have the shoe on the other foot. I'm sorry for what you dealt with, I would make sure I NEVER interact with the person who complained about you again.

My mother was a social worker before she retired and she worked in the child protection division. She would tell me some horror stories about some of the things she saw but she was always so relieved and actually happy when she would have to investigate an accusation like this and it turned out to be false. I never did ask her if the people making the false accusations were ever charged with a crime because, after all, this does cost the state money to investigate. I'd think at least those who file false accusations would have to pay a hefty fine, at the least. Imprisonment should be on the table because this can cause so much stress and grief for the falsly accused families. I'm so glad to hear that this is over for you. I can only imagine what it must have felt like to be accused like this, then made to feel like you were being watched all the time. (That's how I'd feel, anyway.) It has to be a HUGE relief for you!

FINALLY! Now hopefully you can put this sorry episode in the past where it belongs. I think all your friends at Mylot could have saved her the time and effort of visiting you and told her what a wonderful mum and child carer you are!

I'm glad that things turned out well for your family. This is something that you shouldn't have had to go through. On the subject of surprise visits, though... I really wish that they would do more surprise visits when there are reports from neighbors that children are being abused and neglected. I still remember how they would always let certain former neighbors of mine know that they were coming for a visit. Suddenly, things would "magically" get improved for the inspection. The system is really upside-down much of the time. Too often, kids are left to suffer in bad homes. Then, there is room for abuse of the system as what occurred with you; someone can level a false allegation and turn a family's life upside-down. I don't know what the solution is overall, but I do know that things need to change.

Does this still have something to do with that ruckus caused by that man? Wow, if its is, then just think of all the trouble that everyone went through because of his selfish and crazy ideas. I hope they put him on some blacklist now and that anything he says or tips on be taken with a grain of salt or get him investigated instead.

Hi Loving ! Good that you're they're done visiting you , at least now you're at peace. How good is your social worker really visiting household and doing their work. Us here , no they don't visit a household , they just stay in their offices , no ocular visits they're doing . It would be the people who have some issues who will visit their office. So poor system we have , the government paying them good salary but not doing their jobs well.

I am happy for you. It is bad when you are having to worry about them all the time. It is good news that the case will be closed.

That is really good news! I'm sure that when your husband is home (and awake) that he'll also be quite relieved. Have you seen or heard from your neighbor since he made the stupid report?

hi lovingmybabies I am so glad for you that its now offically over and that sthe social worker saw it was a false and mean report too. I hope they nail that man for making the false report what a mean ornery thing to do to anyone. I know there its a crime to file false reports like that. I am so glad for yo u.

yes this is very good news for your family. Thanks for the update. I am so glad everything worked out okay for you and your family. That guy was just wrong to do what he did and lie like that about your kids being abused. I would never be friends with that person again not ever. Sorry you had to go through this and sorry they had to make one more final surprise visit but glad it is allover now and the kids can stay with you. Thanks again for the update and god bless you and your entire family. Remember tho never talk to or be friends with this person again since you don't need lairs like this in your life.

It is good news that your case is settled. This means you can start receiving social security benefits. The social worker dropped by your place is to check that the benefits be misused. There are a lots of cases that people who working and getting a good income and bluff to claim these benefits.

Excellent news for your family. I went through something similar to what you've been through with the social workers a year ago and it was really something that made me angry. Just like with your case, the case that was brought up against my husband and myself was ruled to be an unsubstanciated case and it was all dropped. However, I am still angry about the fact that someone (and yes I know who it was) decided to lie on my husband and myself in an attempt to have my children taken away from me.

Hiya LMB, That must have really been quite an ordeal for you. I know Social Workers can poke their nose into Family affairs I have been through that one a bit too it was because of the way they were treating my very sick Mom. In that case I was glad to see the Social Worker and only at the very end did I get to find out the reason why. But I am so glad that she is leaving you alone now what a Friend wow with Friends like that who needs enemies? Why did he make up such nasty stories? Double whammy of hurt for you all. Glad its over for you now though.xxx

Good thing that it is over now. Your neighbor must not be busy to cause trouble to your family. Well, I actually do not know what to say when I read that it is all about your daughter not having a bed. My siblings and I actually grew up without our own beds, seriously.

Thank G-d! I'm so happy for you.

Happy, happy.

Thank goodness! Now you can finally close that book, and put it behind you. Not that you were trying to hide something, but it's great that even though the visit was a surprise, they still found that everything was in order. It IS really good news!

Does a surprise visit occur a lot? I don't know what's going on, but I hope everything passes.

That is great news. I know they do that like that. I think I told you the story about what happened to me and the evil ex. I am just not going to re tell it. But it seems most of these cases are nonsense ones. And the sad part of it is that it takes these people away from investigating a real true child abuse case. Thats like calling 911 for a prank.

I'm sorry to hear that you and your family had to go through that. It would be awful to have people tell lies and then have to deal with people investigating your family. I'm glad it's over for you all.
