●Adoptive father, real mother, older brother, child in question

On the day of the child's telephone consultation, the center called the child's school and asked of her situation. On that day, the child welfare officer on duty visited the child's house and conducted an interview.

The adoptive father sincerely listened to instruction and agreed to take child-raising workshops in the city from now on. As part of the suggested coaching, the center will continue to observe the situation.

(v) Other notes

As a result of numerous counseling sessions at the city's education consultation office regarding the child, we learned there was a high possibility the cause of the child's excessive distrust towards her adoptive father was the result of a lack of communication.

The abuse she claimed hadn't actually taken place—she had made a false report to distance herself from her adoptive father.



The problem appeared to be more with the daughter. Chief Investigator F of the city's education consultation office said that most of her stories of abuse were likely fabrications.

They decided to shift the focus of their coaching to the child. Be cautious not to take everything the child says as truth.
