Discussed this a lot with my T today.
She was very helpful having me put myself in roles or people I was extra nervous or anxious about meeting, then wondering what their thoughts would be in said situation, and I was then thinking if I were the principal at a school Latin Heritage Dance, just how much focused I would be on myself and the CPS case if I were the principal and what the principal would be much more likely to be thinking about.
Then, she reassured me too, if the school felt I were a danger to my daughter, they wouldn't have let me picked her up from school when she thew up (after the investigation began but before it closed). The same with them not calling me to bring my daughter a longer dress; hers was too short, and letting me help my daughter change clothes in the family restroom near the office. So obviously, the people at the school who needed to know about the CPS case like knew or realized the outcome of the CPS case was in my favor.
So that helped a bit. And even realizing that usually the teachers are stressed about whatever X event is and/or not happy about being chosen to work at a school festival on the weekend selling concessions, not focused on thoughts about me. Even the class parties are stressful for the teachers.
