Just over a week ago I received a letter from social services saying an anonymous complaint had been made of verbal/emotional abuse. I was shocked and confused as it didn't sound like our family. The letter said no further action would be taken but it would be noted on our file.
I spoke to a social worker and very quickly established it couldn't be our family as the ages of the children didn't match. Today I received a follow up letter stating the contents of our conversation, recorded accurately.
I'm just concerned that my dc have files. Do all children have files with SS? I thought the fact that it was a completely inaccurate report would mean that was the end of it and I'm not happy that they have files on my dc solely because of this anonymous complaint. I'm a bit suspicious because when I spoke to the social worker, after it became apparent that it wasn't us, the social worker continued to ask questions about whether I abuse my children and I didn't get the impression I was believed.
I'm still really jumbled up about the whole experience and don't know whether to just leave it alone now or what to do about my children's files...
