Thread Name: BS: I was accused of child abuse
Subject: RE: BS: I was accused of child abuse
If I were you, Donuel, I would quit sounding so angry. Stop dwelling on every possible injustice or bad judgment. For example, the principal doesn't know anything about the complaints to the IRS, etc. If you go into the office sore from ruminating about those things, the principal may feel that you are a perpetually angry man. Not true, as we all know.
Some of the people you will be talking to are genuinely concerned about your son. Act like a calm, loving father who cares about his child. Get yourself out of the center of the stage and put your son there instead. Ask what is going wrong. Why is he so unhappy in school? How did he get injured? Don't act like an angry man who's only thinking about himself.
Apparently there are many false accusations of child abuse. Act rational and loving, and it will help assure the school that your son's case is just another one.
