A little backstory. Currently going through court again, my ex is seeking to increase parenting time. We have a court order.
Prior CAS case as my child indicated a stepparent had physically hit them. Case was closed as there was no physical evidence. Child still expressing fear over said stepparent but no further incidents or proof. OCL refused involvement. Feeling helpless. Don't know how to report disclosures from my child without it being seen as hearsay or manipulation. Facing pressure to settle but worried to increase time when my child is still expressing fear. Large amount of bullying and conflict from other parent.
