Frustrated!!!!!! Being Harassed

We feel like we are being harassed by Family and Childrens Services. They say that it is all routine stuff but they keep coming to our house and we feel like they are harrassing us. Brayden's accident happened in April, they started coming here in August and have been coming by our house or calling wanting to come out here almost every other week for some reason or another. They want us to have family team meetings and have a social worker come out to our house every week for family meetings. We are fed up with them. They say it is all rountine stuff but everytime they come to our house we all have to be here. They have been here 3 times in the past two weeks and they want Curtis to miss work to be here every time they are here. They even want our kids to miss school so they can be a part of these family meetings, which is not going to happen. They scheduled a meeting here last Monday and Curtis missed work to be here and only 1 person showed up and they couldn't do their meeting and will have to reschedule it. Everytime they come here we all have to tell them what happened on the day of the accident and relive it all over again, even my other 2 children are asked what happened that day. How inconsiderate can they be? Making the other 2 kids relive the traumatic events of that day over and over again. They said due to the severity of injury from his accident
if we refuse to cooperate they will seek legal action. We take care of our kids and they are provided for very well. They said that since Brayden's accident happened there is obviously lack of parental supervision in our home. Which is not true. I don't understand why we are being scrutinized by them because an accident happened. Why can't they go and help some children who really need their help.


On a good note Brayden went to the ENT doctor on Friday. The doctor is going to schedule to look at his throat to see if the scar tissue had resolved enough to remove his trach. If he still has some scar tissue they will remove it then. If everything looks good they will schedule to remove his trach. He will have to stay 2 nights in the hospital but it will be well worth it. We hope everything looks good and he can hurry up and get rid of the trach. We think it will greatly help in speeding up his progress. He has been so good since we got the ear infection under control. He has been all smiles and almost laughing at times.
