What is the name of your state?NYC
My state is and city is NY.
So my story is this.. I'm married to my wife and we have 3 children. Ages 2 ,7, and 10. Now around Christmas time we got a knock on the from ACS. Stating that they received an anonymous call from someone stating that there is a mentally disturbed single lady who screams yells and embarass her children in public living at my address and gave them our floor which is 2.
The workers also stated that they didn't have a name of the lady being accused and that she has 3 children(like us)ages 7,9, and 15. My children aren't those ages.
my wife isn't single obviously and they don't even have the name of the person they want to check out. So it clearly sounds like a mistake. My neighbor who lives on the first floor has issues like that, has open ACS cases, and has a crazy co parent who does things like call ACS on her. I've been reading many stories and know a few people who this happened to. and didn't turn out well. A friend of mine had this happened to them and because he was missing a window guard on a window, it turned into a 2 year hassle with ACS meanwhile he never abused or neglected his children, had suitable sleeping arrangements, house was spotless, refrigerator and cabinets full of food, closet full of clothes, health and school records perfect, doesnt smoke or drink at all and that happened to him.
So I am real uneasy about it all.
My question is do I let them without a court order or the police? What will happen if I don't let them..I feel like don't have the right or the proper information to enter my home. and Can ACS investigate a home without even knowing who lives there? In every case ive heard of where ACS came to a house, They always had 1. The address 2.The name of the accused 3. The ages and the amount of children in the home and in my case they didn't that info. All they had was an address, 3 incorrect ages, and the words (crazy mentally disturbed women who lives alone with 3 children)
