My ex husband has called CPS on me (2nd time), a social worker went to speak to my son at school on Friday. I won't find out until today after school as to what she asked him. The 1st time CPS popped in to find an extremely clean home and was making home made carrot soup and 2 other meals for the week. The second he walked in the door he stated "well I can see this is a waste of time", chatted with me and my son for a few minutes , then said I am going to recommend in your file, not to bother you anymore. I think he (ex) has called because he is very jealous of the next door neighbor who lets my son come over 1-2 times a week to play his playstation 3 on his big flat screen tv. He is perfectly safe, 32 year old, works from home as a consultant, has a 7 mth old son and girlfriend at home. MY ex has told me not to let him go over there because that is how kids get molested. He has also talked to my son about how this guy will hurt him!. I am livid ! ,if I thought he was in any danger believe me I wouldn't let him go over. My ex lets him spend the night with a boy who was kicked out of school for inappropriate behavor, lude acts, etc...makes him my son walk 4 miles up to McDonalds, now who is putting who in danger. You see, my ex had 5 brain surgeries that left him blind, with mild brain damge, he walks with a cane, wouldn't it be easy for a kidnapper to bonk him on yhe heasd and steal my son?, he is prone to have gran-mal seizures, he has had 3 in front of him, 2x at his school and 1 time when my son was visiting, so he called the ambulance for his dad. My son is 10. I am assuming the social worker will be coming today sometime, as when she left me a message, she said she wanted to set up a time to come today. I called her back and said sure, but didn't hear back. I think it is terrible my ex is putting his son in this predicament and putting scary ideas into his head about the neighbor molesting him. what would you do?, I am not scared to meet this worker, I am mad at the ex and I think HE is digging himself in a hole...

What can I do next?

I've been through this as well. These CPS workers are SO used to BS calls!! Trust them on that. They know when a malicious call has been put in. He can get in trouble for repeatedly wasting their time... let him dig his own grave. Don't pressure your son to talk about what they discussed if he doesn't want to. Maybe put the shoe on the other foot, and have CPS talk to your ex instead. Such a waste of everyone's time and mental energy! And so not fair to your son :(

I would speak to your attorney about this situation and get his/her advise on how to proceed.

If there is nothing to hide, then there's nothing to hide.

At 10, I would hope your son knows about appropriate and inappropriate touching, etc.....he should also know that he can tell you ANYTHING.

It would be better if you & your ex could talk about the concerns you each have.

I wouldn't let my kid go over there either. That IS how kids get molested. Who says, "I knew he was creepy but I let my kid play there anyway?" There is no way to know for sure about someone so why let him be in that situation?
