My question involves a child custody case from the State of: California
I am an American Airman. thank you for reading my post, I will try and make this brief.
my soon-to-be ex-brother-in-law put his almost 3 year old, 32 lbs child in a booster seat in the front of his car. my wife and I told him it was illegal and he shouldn't do it. he got mad. the cops were called, they told him to change the carseat. a bunch of drama unfolded but in the end he told my sister-in-law that he was going to get our children taken away from us by telling them we abuse our children by "beating them"
there is no proof, our children love us. yes, we do discipline our children according to what they did wrong but the police told us it is ok as long as it's not continuous or over what it should be. we have never left marks on our children from punishment.
if he or his new girlfriend call CPS on us, nothing is found wrong, what can be done to them for filing false charges?
also, is there a way to head him off at the pass? like, calling CPS ourselves and having them come out and inspect us or letting them know what he is up to?
i appreciate any help
