@missO

Have you heard of the "let Them theory"  basically when people are doing things that are out of your control .... let them.   

Friends and family should know better then believe your did something out of character.  sooner or later this will pass.

@missO I'm really sorry you're going through this—it sounds like an incredibly tough situation. Being falsely accused, especially by family, can be so painful and isolating. It’s clear that you care about the children you work with and that you’ve always strived to stay calm and understanding, so I can only imagine how upsetting it must be for people to question your character in such a way.
Have you had any chance to talk directly to anyone who might be supporting the accusations or perhaps clear things up with them?

You can seek professional help

@missO Hello. Thank you for sharing this with us. First of all, I’m sorry that your family is accusing you for something you didn't do. It's hurtful when family spread rumor about you but this doesn't define who you are truly. I imagine the difficult and pain you're experiencing. You don't deserve that. It's important to stay calm however much you can. Have you tried to have open conversation about it with family? Also, if you ever need to talk to someone, you can always reach out to me

I understand it must have been really hard for you hearing all those false comments, especially when you are confident in your abilities to interact with children. Have you tried to explain to them the reality of the situation? And besides making you feel helpless, are there any other ways in which this has impacted you?
