If you asked to remain anonomous then they will not give her your name. As far as denying it well thats up to yu. If she find out who know what she may do to you if shes already mistreating her children. You did what you felt was right and the idiot with the first comment is wrong. Children die everyday from neglect and abuse because people won't call CPS. Good for you and I hope the situation gets better for the children. Thank you for caring about children so many people dont nowadays

If you made a valid complaint, which I'm sure you did, there should never be information released.
However, I know that if people are using CPS to harass someone, they can release the info and the accused can sue the accuser. That would have to be the type of case where it's completely out of line and only done for personal reasons and nothing is found wrong whatsoever.

I don't think I would worry to much about denying it. She doesn't seem like a quality friend anyways. Just don't be surprised if not much more than an investagation comes from this because unless they catch her in the act of inapropriate behavior or dangerous behavior there isn't alot they can do. Consider being more involed with the boys an less with the mom.
If she approaches you about I would flat out deny I would evade the question by say something about this being a good chance for her to make some changes while she can before it's to late. They are not suppose to give your name but sometimes these things slip out. YOu have no reason to defend yourself if you are acting in the best interest of the children.

Laura H are you crazy since when does it take a freakin community to raise a child??! Your quoting old Hillary. I want the govt. to stay out of my child raising thank you very much, they have too much power over our life as it is. For what it's worth if you need a community to help raise a child you probably are not doing enough to raise them yourself. My mother raised all 5 of us. Think my wife and I will do it the good old fashioned way.
As for the original question. You should not deny it unless you think they will do something crazy. If you really believe you did what is right you should be on high enough ground to defend your actions.

Kudos for you for calling, that must have been a hard decision for you, but the boys will appreciate it!
It takes a community to raise a child, and CPS would be unable to help children without people like you.
If she asks, it is up to you whether or not you tell her. It is a hard call, I believe in honesty, but it is hard to be an advocate for those boys if you do not see her anymore.
CPS should not release your name.

well, you have to live with yourself. i would have taken a different approach but you did what you felt was right. the problem i have is you not wanting her to find out. she won't but i think if someone is willing to split a mother from there children they should have the balls to admit to it instead of hiding anonymously. Even violent criminals have a right to know who their accuser is.

Best to stay anonymous. You don't know what the outcome will be or how they (the "parents") might respond.
Ignore the moron above me. If your description was accurate, you did the right thing.
