The district out there doesn't mess around with that -- I got a call from them saying they'd "have no choice but to call the truancy officer on us" because DS had missed the first two weeks of school there and they had no record of him being enrolled anywhere else.....well, that was because school here starts a month later than out there so there was no one at the school here to send a request for records/report him being enrolled here yet.
Oh no! They do love soaked feed - so they'll gobble it up for now, but it will mold quickly -- any chance you might just toss it in a bucket, add more water and set it for a batch of fermented feed?
Oh, Granny, I am just so sorry that you and CB have to go through all of this. It is such a blessing that he has you, but a shame that he needs to have you (if that makes sense). Because he said that he fears going home it would seem the school, as mandated reporters, should be obligated to make contact with DFS anyway, regardless of whether she tries to pick him up again - because it *should* trigger an automatic investigation into the safety and well-being of the other children as well.
