What has been your experience with reporting to family protective services? I made my first report at the end of last week and received the response that there wasn't anything for them to investigate at this time shortly after submitting it. 2 other co-workers also reported to them for the same child regarding the same situation. Fast forward to today when I receive a call from the parent stating they had been visited by CPS the other day and their reasoning was because the child had visited the nurse's office multiple times recently for one specific reason, of which, was not a reason any of us reported for. Parent now wants a copy of the child's visits to the clinic.
Here are my questions:
1) is it normal for them to say there is nothing to investigate only to turn around and visit the home less than a week after the report was made?
2) is it customary for them to use a false reason for the investigation?
3) is it possible a different person, unrelated to the school and the situation in which we are aware of, reported the same child and it just happened to be investigated after we reported?
I'm sorry if this is so vague as I don't want to reveal too much info but I'm still really confused on how this has played out. I simply have nothing to compare it to.
Thanks for your help!
