Child Services Card on my door

[Eve13]

Dear Linda,

Thank you Linda for adding me to your blog. Yesterday, I came home to find a business card from child services in my door. I am very scared to my stomach right now. I am not sure what I have done wrong. This morning I woke up and hesitated on calling them but I have nothing to hide. So I called her and her supervisor and left a voicemail, since the initial social worker that left me the card wont be available till Monday. What is your best advise on how to handle them? and what are my rights. Thank you vey much Linda.

Very truly yours,
Jenny - Los Angeles, CA

They have a legal obligation to investigate, however you also have rights that need to be enforced. I happily agreed to an open house investigation where they could come at any time, whenever they wanted, for I had nothing to hide. They were all smiles and promises for three weeks. I still do not have most of my 4 children to this day, 5 years later.

Just remember they cannot come and just say they are investigating "allegations". They have to be very specific as to what the allegations are. You might want to get an attorney, one recommended by others who have won but please read Linda's what to do if child protective service social workers are investigating you. It has almost everything you will need to know about.
