Hey everyone,
                 I just had to come in here and sit down and tell someone whats going on. I just got off of work and come home to find a note attached to my door AGAIN. this time social services is back with a vengence the note said they had another child protective referal well the only thing i can think of this time is jake had a bad seziure he learnsd to ride a bike with no traing wheels well he still falls and i assumed that was what brought the seziure on so that is what i told them at the hospital, well of course i should have known better than to go to er here but i went anyway iam not financaly able to go out of town every time and i thought something this simple would be ok but of course not but anyway they are back i havent called them yet to see what the complaint is  i went ahead and called a lawyer and told him my case how s.s. is always after me to take my kids away and put them in a home and how every time the case has been dropped he thinks i have a good case for slander and harrasment. but even though i know i havent done anything wrong do you know how i feel right now i am scared angry iam an emotional wreck i feel like going up there and just beat the life out of these people they make me so mad if they only knew what i had to deal with they would leave me alone its not just them i cant even go out in public with my kids with out some smart--- saying something cruel about why do you have so many handicp children do you do something to them? i always reply no god thought i was special enough to give them to me but you know what i tired of this to  i hardly cant even function anymore i dont know what to do i hope nobody gets upset with me for posting this  just wanted to get this off my chest

I understand how you feel. Tyler was born unable to suck on a bottle, the hospital sent him home to die basicly. I fed him every hour for an hour around the clock. I took him to 5 or more doctor and therapy appointment every week. Yet, someone reported me for starving my son. SS came to the house to weigh him everyday, weekends included, until he gained an ounce. Tyler was born at 7 lb 6 ounces and sent home from the hospital a week later at 6 lbs and 5 ounces and still losing weight. I got dirty looks and treatment from everyone that wasn't a professional helping me try to care for him. Tyler is now 12 years old and thriving, sometimes I would love to show those people how little they knew.

Geez Sandy I think that is horrific!  You have enough on your plate without this harrassment.  It makes it so hard for you to get the proper treatment for your children.  I hear horror stories all the time about social services actually/literally losing children in the system and these are kids that really need rescuing from abusive parents etc..   Then here you are, a great caring parent getting flack when you should be getting help.  :'( The system stinks!  I wish I had words of wisdom for you but I can't even imagine.  I just feel very badly for you all.   Please keep us updated.
