My grandma talked to one of her friends who works at cps, and she said that my grandma can't really do anything until he hits me and i call the police
That's not entirely correct. You can report abuse at any time. You don't have to wait for a physical incident. If you feel unsafe, call the police immediately. You can also reach out to Family Services of Tulare County for additional support and guidance.
Oh ok thank you yeah i was a little confused
You're welcome! It's important to understand you have rights and you can seek help. Don't hesitate to call the police or CPS if you're in danger. Stay strong and safe, and remember there are people ready to help you.
I think her friend meant to remove me so i can live with my grandma
If you're interested in living with your grandma, California law allows for this under certain circumstances. Child Protective Services (CPS) can facilitate a change in guardianship if it's in your best interest. It's essential to discuss this with CPS and your grandma.
I will thank you, who can make a cps report for me?
In California, anyone can make a CPS report if they suspect child abuse or neglect. You can make the report yourself, or a trusted adult like your grandmother can make it on your behalf. Call CPS at *-*-*-* to report.
