      My God. My family and I just got the transcript of the false complaint against us to New York’s Child Services Department. The person literally quotes mistakes from our Wikipedia page to the operator. It’s shameful. Authorities literally came to our house today over this.

      Just learned that the person who filed a false report against my family with Child Services reported seeing my 11 year old son walking down the street with illegal drugs...AT AN ADDRESS WE HAD ALREADY MOVED FROM. It’s shameful this has allowed to go on like this.

          Because the law requires it. Any reports of abuse are required to be investigated. It’s a slippery slope because If they don’t investigate and a child is in danger they can be found liable.

          Yes this is a tough one. I'm obviously sorry this is happening to Shaun, and believe the complaint is 100% false. But the agency does have to follow up on complaints. There should be an additional level of triage on complaints that don't involve traumatizing his children though.

          Isn't it their right to know their accuser. I've seen people use the services as a weapon it's disgusting. It's done all the time one phone call can ruin your life. I was told at one time by someone who had cps called on them but they had the right to know their Accuser. Idk

          Nothings perfect. With the anonymity adults face the problems of an unperfect system, not the kids who are truly in danger (to a certain extent)

          A lawyer might be able to subpoena information on the caller. There should be consequences for filing false reports to CPS.

          A friend of mine had this happen because they evicted someonesl that person called DHS and told them that they were beating their children and they came and found out it was a lie. Then they tracked down the culprit and arrested them for a false report and harassment!
