This sounds like how I wound up with Cassi- her mom gave her to a woman who was a mutual friend but only had 2 bedrooms. Her mother called social services over having 4 kids in a 2 bedroom (and Cassi was the only girl) and rather then risk losing her kids I got involved and wound up with legal custody of Cassi to get her in school since I wouldn't take her if she wasn't going to be going to school (she was 13!)..
Anyway- hopefully this will all work out- there are a lot of minor crazy complaints out there.. and if your local dept is good they also know which to overlook... sadly its a fact of life that there are busybodies out there and in some areas currupt systems.. i testified in a custody hearing against a man who neglected and physically abused his kids and somehow he still (despite 3 doctors and many individual witnesses) wound up with unsupervised court ordered visitation!
