Hey everyone. This won't be very long, but I just wanted to tell you all what is happening to me and my family. I decided to homeschool my kids a few weeks ago. I did everything legally. Yes my husband is going through some issues with depression and is out of work, but we have our tax return to live on and the bills are paid through May.
I stupidly confided in my mom about a concern I have. She's the only one I told. This was a few months ago. My mom freaked out and overreacted as usual, and called my mother in law saying she didn't know what to do, and would maybe call "the authorities." She has called them on me for ridiculous reasons before like having a messy house. Reasons even too dumb for a social worker to investigate because they've always ignored her. I've been distant with her since then but she calls and tries to get together. She doesn't know I know about her conversation with my mother in law. Over the phone I told her I was homeschooling now though. She's the only one I told so far.
She wanted to take us all to McDonald's and I declined. She wanted us all over for cake and ice cream for her birthday and I declined. She wanted the kids over last weekend but because of the snowstorm I declined. She's prone to wild speculation.
Then today they came.
A social worker and the school liaison officer...
I was at the grocery store. My husband answered. They brought up the concern (just want my privacy with this issue, but it in no way endangers the health, safety, or well being of our children) and said they wanted to make sure everything was ok since the kids were out of school. My husband didn't know what to do and said he would rather have them come back when I was home so we could be together.
They are coming back tomorrow at 3pm.
I am terrified.
I am furious!
I have been crying on and off all day.
I don't know what to do!
I don't know what will happen!
We are good parents! We are just going through tough times that would have worked themselves out without any kind of intervention as always!!
Please pray for our family! Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Never have my children been taken from me in my dealings with these people before but I'm still scared! I really don't know what is going to happen. They've been out of my life for almost a year and they're back again.
HELP!
