amo_mea_filiis. Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 The only kids involved at the moment are the 12yo girl with her 8 and 11yo brothers. The 10yo punk hasn’t been around much. Mine was going over to the 12yo’s house for short bits. I would pick him up at random times or even just stop over and check in. We hung out with the 3 kids one night while mom was out “doing laundry.†This afternoon mine went over to grab the kids to go to the Y. He wasn’t there 10 minutes before the police and CYS walked in, pee tested mom, kicked out the extra kids (my son and another boy), arrested mom, and took the kids. :( I’m crawling back in my hermit shell. No one in, no one out, and we’re good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JumpyTheFrog Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Sorry to hear that. What did your son think of it all? Does this leave any neighborhood friends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedicMom Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Can you move to a better neighborhood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amo_mea_filiis. Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Can you move to a better neighborhood? No. We have housing assistance so we’re limited. We have a very nice house on a usually quiet block (my drunk neighbor has been quiet for a couple years now, and the 10yo won’t be here too long). My drummer son has autism, low IQ, and a bunch of other issues; drumming is his thing and he’s been with his instructor for 5 years. And then my extra kids. I can’t just leave them. But, I guess we’re not officially stuck here. I can take my housing anywhere. As long as we stay in PA, the kids’ school doesn’t change. How would I know it’s a better area? Cys doesn’t publish stereotypical areas that they go in a lot. Heroin and pills is everywhere. Crime here is pretty low. On the surface it looks like a decent neighborhood.

amo_mea_filiis. Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Sorry to hear that. What did your son think of it all? Does this leave any neighborhood friends? We currently have 6 extra kids, and had 1 more in 2015-2016, all with CYS involvement. He was a little concerned about the kids, but overall was fine. When they handed mom the cup, he knew what was about to happen. He said the younger boys looked concerned, but the 12yo kind of rolled her eyes and gave a btdt look. There’s still the big group, but with 12yo and 10yo out of the picture for now, it leaves less drama from what I can tell. Or at least less serious drama. The core group is pretty decent, but I know a handful of them have CYS involvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
