Now I really don't know what to do.
So apparently, this investigation into The Ex and/or Ned started when Daughter was on spring break and was at their house. A social worker and a police officer came to the house and spoke to Ned. Allegedly, he offered to let them speak to Daughter but they declined...only to contact our county three weeks later and ask them to speak to Daughter, which doesn't make any sense but whatever. Since Daughter talked to the social worker, I've learned quite a few things. The Ex admitted out loud that the investigation was happening because of "a little bruise that [Lucifer] got from a spanking" and accused Ned's ex-wife of "pushing on it" to make it look worse than it was. ( So she basically admitted that not only do she and/or Ned spank Lucifer, but one of them hit him hard enough to leave a bruise. I don't know what your thoughts on spanking are, but there should never be a bruise on a child as a result of having their butt smacked. Ever . )...
