I haven't read the history.
OP
1. What did you do to child that he is claiming abuse?
2. What specific recommendations have CPS made to you following the last time with them? I'm sure they made some. Did any recommendations include no physical punishment?
In addition to what legal measures you get into, have you taken a parenting teens class? Tried some current books? They have helped me. One I particularly like - "Yes Your Teen Is Crazy" and it was also mentioned at a teen class I took (among other books). The psychologist who works with kids all day - his take is NEVER get into physical altercations with your teen, and when things are hot...give them space.
I realize punishment is a "parenting difference". However, I am getting that it is becoming the understanding that it just is not good, on any level, with a teen to use physical force.
