[QUOTE="DDD, post: 341874, member: 35"] I just had another thought.......although it may not be helpful. Perhaps you could request a meeting with the counselor stressing that you are not expecting any information from her. Although Mom has dictated that there be no "discussion" of "her children", is it possible that the counselor would lend you an ear for five minutes? I have done that in the past with some success. If so, I would suggest that you emphasize that you are [B]not [/B]requesting any information and would like five minutes of her time. Plan how the express that (1) you love your daughter/gkids (2) that you have been involved in their daily living for x years and (3) that you hope the school will be very observant for signs of inappropriate caregiving (tardiness, absences, lack of hygiene, flat emotional participation etc.) so that as mandated reporters the children will have professionals observing their well being. Wrap it up by expressing your appreciation for the wonderful job their faculty/staff does in supporting their student body [B]and[/B] adding that although you are following professional advice not to continue your active role you will continue to support XYZ school via PTA activities because of your admiration for their efforts,. Something along that line (if doable) would put them on notice to meet their legal obligations, assuring them you honor confidentiality mandates. and will continue to be of help for all their students. Brief. Appreciated. Most importantly...an effort to protect the kids from afar. DDD [/QUOTE]
