They are definitely over reacting. It sounds like this woman you had the problem with has threatened them with some legal action so they are trying to "protect" against that. So try to remain as calm as you can because you don't really have all the facts.

It is probably taking the attorneys you called some time to investigate this to see what your rights are, so give them time to do that. What you "can" do is let them know what you are dealing with now. Keep a file and get as much as you can get "in writing". So, if the school is making these new demands, don't just take their instructions by phone, make sure they put it in writing.

What you are now addressing is because of things that have taken place in Colleges/schools that were overlooked and some of these things got bad, the Schools ended up with "big legal problems". So now they have to consider any possible trouble as something that could turn into a "bigger issue".

That's like me for example, I have genuine damage resulting for my neighbor's carelessness, I have been involved in the legal fight for years now, why, because of all the people that "lie" about injuries etc and take advantage of the system just to try to get money. There are people that think up all kinds of things to make money off of lawsuits and because of that the people that have "genuine" damage are now going through alot more to get "justice". Yeah, it's very unfair.

We live in strange times now, so yes, it isn't unusual for something that seems so small can get to be blown up like this. So, you are going to have to be patient and see what your attorneys can do for you with this situation.

I am very sorry that you are dealing with this, and you know your facts, unfortunatley,as I mentioned, people lie so much now that it is pretty considered guilty until proven innocent even though it isn't suppose to be like that.

So you gotta do your best to be patient and try very hard not to allow yourself to feed into it emotionally, I know that is hard to do with PTSD, but do your best to be patient and try not to project as I mentioned before.
