Advice Needed: Reporting False Information to Child Protective Services...
He did!! Although he was never even spanked, at 15 (and 6'0" 190 pounds) claimed I had hit him several times including in the face. At the time I had 80+ stitches and stapled from my abusive Vietnam Veteran with PTSD and bipolar disorder husband STABBING ME 2 weeks earlier.
I have lost control of the situation and they placed him with my mother, but he is being a TOTAL ass to me.
It makes no sense!! But frankly I am so angry, I couldn't care less about him returning to live with me. I have never been so disappointed in anyone.

Not sure about the back story, but sorry about what is going on.
There is not a back story...the husband who stabbed me is not his dad. My first husband died in 2000. Rick never was abusive to him. NOTHING WAS GOING DOWN BETWEEN ME AND MY KID, then HE REPORTED THIS OUT OF THE BLUE!! ~L

I'm so sorry, but it should be very clear you did nothing. Hang in there, glad your mom is able to help.
my daughter did that to my ex husband, as a result he had the social services on his back for 2 years, had to appear in front of a judge 3 times. She never been hit, did it for attention and because all her friends were talking about child abuse which was a big topic at the time. My heart goes out to you and I hope that you have recovered or are recovering from your wounds. I agree with another poster, prove your case and see if conceling could be offered for your son.
Quoting 02nana07:Maybe he just wanted out if your husband would do that to you he probably didn't feel safe no matter what his size he is still a kid mentally. He probably was afraid to accuse your husband for fear of retaliation.
I agree with this... Your son has been through a lot in his young age.... his dad died and now his mom was stabbed. He is probably going through a lot mentally and emotionally. I get that you are upset about him lying, but honestly I can see why he would be upset and disappointed in you.
Please take a step back and try to think about this from his point of view. Seems like he desperately needed to get away and used a card he thought would work. Use the time apart to focus on healing yourself, make sure you are no longer in danger from your DH and start counseling with your son. He has a right to his feelings too, even if they hurt you. If he is safe with your mom, then that just might be the best thing for now.

My husband has been in jaril on a 100,00 dollar bond since March, so he is not an issue. ~L

I took him to a post-trauma counselor who turned out to be a dud. I know a good MSW I want him to see. I have to get CPS approval. He is a very tall. big, African-American who is not going to fall for any BS. None of it.
Quoting tyfry7496:
Cooperate with the investigation and then give your mom guardianship. Sounds like your son could use counseling.
Do you expect academic excellence from your kids? POLL Added
