acs [child services] is coming tonight to speak to me and mom. we're a bit nervous but she hasnt dont wrong...
well they said someone reported her and they need to see me and my sister and stuff and ask questions.
idk who reported her.
but yeah.
i think whoever did it knows about me staying home ALL day. most of the day i stay home ALONE my mom works from 9am to 8pm at night. my sister goes to school, and i do homeschooling so im usually home here alone.
i dont go outside at all. which is another story b/c most ppl that do homeschooling at least go outside for a walk but. since i have issues emotional issues i dont go outside. im depressed. but yeah is this anything to worry about if we tell him this? my mom has to work...
im 15 btw..

don't be nervous. just tell the truth. you're old enough to be home alone during the day at 15.

I'm a 'mandated reporter' which means I have to report abuse based on the type of work I do (a psychologist). I can tell you with full confidence, that if your mom did nothing wrong, she and you have nothing at all to worry about. They must come to your home and look around, make a report, and probably make at least one return visit. Don't worry--they get lots of fake calls from neighbors and others who are not very nice or have 'an ax to grind,' if you know what I mean. Just be open and honest with the worker.
