My response:

Nope. Now you're on someone's "crap" list, and you'll remain there as long as you're babysitting, and as long as it takes to find a violation.

DHS has every right to keep up their inspections as long as you have children in your home. The children come first. Then the Banjos. Then the Corn cob pipes. Then, the trailer inspections.

In that order.

Wait a minute! What about the old dogs under the porch?

However, apart from the cracks, the answer you got is perfectly right. You're now in the system - and as long as you have kids that you care for, someone's going to be watching you.
