oh sorry - i knew i'd not made that clear... no the boss i'd just quit called my regular boss and told her what person she'd hired. she was friends with the mom of the child i'd reported (thus told me we'd not be reporting). but that care giver was terribly mean to the older boy and always accused him of lying and got him in trouble for things he didn't do. that was how i'd earned his trust in the first place.

But i was still pretty upset with CPS yelling at me. At least i was reporting! But she'd said by then the marks could be gone and they'd have no proof. =(
