[quote=Anonymous]There really isn't a basis for reading into the situation more than OP already knows. The story is not that Larla gets to stay and her mom has to go other than the fact that the mom is living in her car right now. But OP still might start actually by approaching the grandparents, being frank about what her girls said and indicate her desire to help. Contacting other people would some second. I agree school counselor but also suggest finding out who in the school is designated liaison for students attending under McKinney-Vento because that person will likely be most knowledgeable about resources. Unless there is an actual guardianship (not just custody either) arrangement with the grandparents, I would say the child is legally homeless right now. I would not contact CPS unless there was a clear indication the child was at significant physical risk. [/quote]
