Hello.
My dd came home from school and told me another boy had touched her privates. She then disclosed that he had put a toy inside her "foof" and it hurt. She had cuts there. I, of course, reported it straight away to the school and police and drs. I should add that both kids have just turned 5. The school reported it to children's services and all the right investigations have taken place, including my dd being examined at a sexual assault clinic.
Social services have decided to record it as age appropriate behaviour - despite it being red on counts of the brooks chart for what is appropriate.
The mum of the boy was a good friend of mine and apparently I should have covered it up and kept quiet as we were friends and allowed them to play together as normal - as if nothing has happened!!
She is also telling everyone locally that I have made malicious allegations of abuse and neglect that that is why social services are involved. Everyone local has turned on me and the police are logging threats as people expect to fight me and can't wait to get me.
I haven't done anything wrong and I didn't make the call to children's services and I couldn't not report what happened.
I honestly don't know what to do.
