Has Anyone ever had to make the hard call to child protective services???

I'm stuck in a dilemma on what the right thing to do is...

My 16 year old daughter is dating a 17 year old guy they have been together for 8 months things are great we have so much to do with the boyfriend and he is always over our place, His mum had a stroke 10 year's ago when he was 7 and has rehabilitated herself back to a good way, his dad is also in the picture living in the house but the parents aren't together and he has a 6 year old sister and a 3 year old sister the father has sole custody as the mother was deemed unfit yet the father goes to work and leaves the little girls in the mothers care she sometimes takes the 6 year old to school when she can be bothered and she leaves the little one home on her own allot she doesn't remember to feed the 3 year old most days and they have no food for the kids to even eat, the 6 year old is repeating prep at school and the school has had a lot of run in's with the family... I look after the little one quiet a bit and the 6 year old to but not as much as she is in school... The father is always off his face high on something when he picks the kids up from my place and the parents fight like hell all the time and bring the kids into it... Im worried if i ring child services that they will drop my name as the caller and i will ruin the relation ship for my daughter and her boyfriend plus i'll never get to see or help the little ones have some good that they deserve in their life I'm stuck between a rock and a heard place plzzzz plzzzz help me WHAT THE HELL SHOULD I DO...

Additional Details

my daughters boyfriend does help as much as he can but he is at school and tafe so it's hard for him to be around as much as he is needed... And the school were the 6 year old goes hasn't made a call as they have made attempts to the parents and they tell them everything is ok , until they see harm or neglect such as no school lunches there is nothing they can do i have been already to speak to the school on this matter...

Her boyfriend and her spend alot of time together and they seem to me to be pretty tight tell each other everything which is great he is a nice boy...My daughter and I have a great relationship and she tells me quiet a lot ( i won't say everything but nearly everything) last night she told her father and

me that she gave her boyfriend a hand job lol and her father nearly had a heart attack and said haha don't ever touch me with those hands again lmao (joking with her) I just took it in my stride and told her that it was ok if she was ok with it... and asked if her boyfriend had asked for this or did it just happen she said no i made the move and he asked me if i was sure ( so i guess if she is ready to do stuff with him that is ok) but im just wondering now is that like way to fast or is that ok for a girl her age these day's...I'm glad that she told us and is comfortable enough to discuss these things with us but when i look at her i still see her like 2 year's old my baby is growing up... hummmm what to do ??? And did i do the right thing by not over reacting ??? and just trust her...

Today I was driving home form my local shopping center and in the car behind me was a (P) plate driver with his GF (I know it was his GF as they kissed at the red stop light) awwww so cute they were talking and having such a good time then as we stopped at the red light she (I would say is aged 18-19 year''s old) put her thumb in her mouth and started sucking it... As we took of in traffic again he started talking to her she took her thumb out to answer him and they kissed again and then she put her thumb back in to suck haha ( I think I've seen it all now) After driving for a while and thinking ( I was like how ace is that, such a young couple In love and she feels so comfortable with him to be herself... (I would think that something so personal would be keep to your own home and not in public) but she and he didn't care... It was awesome to see and I was so glad to see such young love that accepted anything... I just wanted to share it with you all, I hope you like my today traffic road romance experience???

Altho my life has changed so much Im sitting hear tonight telling my 15 yar old daughter (how much I love her and how proud i am of her, she was diagnosed with the same heart condition as my eldest child) and in nearly 5 year's she has grown and changed so much and im so proud of her...

Hey there... IM 35 and my husband is 38 and we have been married 16 year's we have a 17 year old and a 15 year old and a 12 year old we are more in love 2day then we have ever been... We have been through so much in our life 2gether and we show our love 2wards each other everyday my husband and i will pash and my kids are like get a room??? I say to my kids what would you rather we fight and yell or we love each other this much... what do you think is it ok or keep it to the bedroom???

My 14 year old daughter has a friend that is all kinds of wrong to other people,she is 13 and she smokes has sex swears like a trooper drinks farts burps ect but my daughter loves her they are great mates and I think she is ace I don't make her change to be in my home (with the exception of the C*** word) she knows I don't like it and i will say she tries haha... My kids know right from wrong and they know she is way out of line and they know that if they ever carried on like her i would throttle them (my kids are like why is she like that tho) I just say her parents don't care about her or were she is or who she is with she has no rules or boundaries so that's what happens to kids...

People say to me I shouldn't allow her in my home or if she is their to control her mouth or your kids will think it's ok to be like that... But i think she's a good kid inside she loves us she is yes different but my kids need to also learn to accept people for who they are and if i can show that then they will learn to not judge people either and accept people for who they are and were they come from... After all i'm not this kids mum and altho she is hear as apart of our family alot eating sleeping hear i don't think i should have to parent her??? Is this ok for my kids or am i doing the wrong thing???

I'm having a really hard time at the moment with my 14 yr old and school... we moved her from her high school she started at in year 7 because she wasn't learning anything,we moved her (year 9) end of term 1 as she wanted to move because she wasn't learning anything (wasting her time) she wants to be a midwife... The new school which she picked has a great education and it's hard (which for me i'm happy about) but my daughter is struggling to fit in being the new kid... she has been there now for 1 full term and 2 weeks into the 3rd term but everyday when i pick her up she cries and she hates it there... what do I do??? make her happy and put her back into a school where she will get no education or leave her at the school with the great education but she is so miserable??? i'm worried that her age is very scary and all these teen suicides lately are a worry... If I leave her and she gets so depressed she won't learn at the new school anyway right??? or not???...

any advice would be great Plz help...

People keep telling me that after nearly 5 year's I should be able to move forward in my life after loosing my 12 year old child??? I'm unable to regroup and pick myself up... Is their something wrong with me??? I have 2 other children and a wonderful husband and if I hear the words (you have 2 other children once more) i think i could just stab someone... I think I know I have 2 other children hummmm ...

Lost Soul = Love you always angel 4 ever in my heart Teneale... xx mum xoxo

Saw it yesterday very disappointed... This book was my all time fav out of the whole series and the movies just didn't scratch the surface of the book... Harry and Ginny's romantic kiss was lame... Ron and Hermione was way over the top for this book... Fleur and Bill where the hell were they isn't like the next book there wedding like quarter of the book is on that will they just leave all that out too??? Tonks and Lupin had huge parts in this film you only saw them twice... Harry's obsession with Malfoy was so ova the top in the book and the movie just didn't get that... The half blood prince story gee that got a mention once or twice... The burrow burning down that wasn't in the book and Ginny and Harry in the room of requirements that wasn't in the book Harry goes up their on his own to hide the book after Snape makes him go get all his books from his room to show him as Snape know's Harry has his potions book... And Harry getting draged into the lake wasn't in the book... the Attack on Bill from greyback in the battle ohhhh yeah that wasn't in the movie the battle what battle then Fleur and Mrs Weasleys argument in the hospital ova Bill... Also Harry was stunned by Dumbledore in the book in the tower under his cloke ohhh that didn't happen either he just stood their like a pratt and let them kill Dumbledore and did nothing gee the Harry I know would of killed anyone to protect that old man... This Tom Riddle was bad they should have used the original character from the second film... And then last thier was no funeral for Dumbledore and Harry breaks up with Ginny to protect her and Dumbledore left without telling Harry what other horcruxes to look for, gee how will he figure

that out for the next book??? NOT HAPPY...
