I live in New York State. Hi. This is my first post. My child got into a fight at school, and the case was turned in to the probation department. We got a letter asking for several things, including the ssn of everyone in the house. My husbands aunt lives here and I don't see why they need her social security number. I don't even feel comfortable asking her for it. Will I, or she, or my son get in trouble if we don't give it to them? Why do they even need it? They also want to know what kinds of pets we have, and how long we've been married. Why? What will they do with this information?
