Hi, I haven't been on here very much lately. So I feel kind of funny asking for your prayers. I might be over reacting but to tell you the truth this has always been my biggest fear.
We live out in the country and we have neighbours next door. They have foster kids. Since we've been here they've gone through a few. My children have always played with them. We've always been careful watching them etc. Well I guess my two younger boys 6 and 8 were playing basketball with one of the girls 8 and they patted her on the rear. Of course not meaning anything by it. They're the most innocent little boys anywhere. She told her mother, who told her social worker who phoned the foster parents next door. Now she can't play with any of my kids and I'm worried someone is going to show up at my door.
I'm pretty upset. Sorry. Could you please pray nothing comes of this. I'm really afraid. Thanks so much!

* Update *
Thanks soooo much for your prayers!
I guess the girl told her foster mom she was lying. My boys didn't pat her rear. They patted her on the back.   Everything is okay. The social worker has closed the file. (A file for what?) I was such a nervous wreck over this. Thank you!

Oh my goodness, Trish! I'm so glad this resolved quickly! I would have been a nervous wreck as well! Prayers for your spirit as you recover from what must have been a stressful day, and for you as you are left with (I'm guessing) many "now what?" questions. God's peace be yours, Trish!

So glad it was resolved without anything more than anxiety...though truly that's bad enough.

I've been praying for you all. Our family is currently working to become licensed to foster-to-adopt. We are *painfully* aware of how such matters can snowball . I praise God this situation was short-lived. I am also very sorry that you and your boys needed to go through any questioning and worry because of your kindness.

Love,
