Little Q Never Been To School Before?


Why didn't someone notice that? Why didn't the social worker do something about that?

Exactly. I was surprised that Quita was terrible enough to not take the kids to school so CPS wouldn't be on their back. Don't they typically do something about truancy? Maybe if he was never registered they wouldn't know but I still was surprised by it. If CPS would have known he would have been in the system by now. TP seems to expect for us to forget lol. Poor Q. He should be in school by now. He'll be behind because of Quita.

Maybe she's claiming she's home-schooling him.

Also child protective services might not even be involved if she's just getting a welfare check for taking care of her brother's kid. It would be different if she had gone to court to have Q put in her care, but I very much doubt that. Also the welfare system is so over-crowded I doubt a social worker has time to check every kid is going to school, especially if they've never been registered for school to begin with. You can't know a child is truant if they've never been registered for school or attended school.

Yep very true never thought about the homeschool thing and thanks for clarifying I don't know too much about the system. I just mentioned the truancy thing in the event he was registered before but I didn't know for sure.. I didn't think they get a welfare check if their family though because she is his Aunt.I doubt she fought for custody and went to court because it wouldn't make sense if they wanted to keep him from Candice and make her believe he was dead. Plus. like you said the system is overcrowded as well.

I mentioned the welfare check because she told Quincy she wanted Q back because she was getting money to look after him. Seriously, after that little boy was brought to the hospital suffering signs of physical abuse little Quita should have been put under arrest.

That is a good question, Hannah didn't even mention Q going to school or nothing. How old is suppose to be? He look like he could be in 2nd grade.
