    My sister is neglecting her children but DCFS/OCS won't investigate since it does not meet their criteria

    @katrina2017 This is good advice and I appreciate it. It has always been a tenuous relationship. She stopped responding to me years ago. Everything I am finding out is secondhand from my father whom is now shut out also.

    @zarif I assumed it was a staffing issue as well. Low pay and little reward doesn't encourage a lot of staffing. I am going to look into both a welfare check and look further into the school board issue. Luckily they are not being abused but that doesn't seem to be that helpful right now.

    My sister is neglecting her children but DCFS/OCS won't investigate since it does not meet their criteria

    @butterflyja So that's what OCS told me. That it should help since I filed a report with both OCS first and then DCFS second. But apparently not. And interestingly, the school system says since the children were never enrolled within their system, or have never been enrolled since birth, my...

    I apologize if this is the wrong sub and if someone has a better suggestion please let me know. I was wondering if anyone has any advice of where I can go from here.
