I have a suspicion that your daughter told you what she thought you wanted to hear....and is now denying that because she knows it wasn't true.

There really isn't anything that you can do at this point.

It very well could be that the little girl was scared to tell the truth to CPS...if it is true, she is scared to death at this point.

I would constantly communicate with her and let her know that you are on her side and she needs to tell the truth at all times.

Best of luck to you and your little girl.
