I think it's implied that the Battle of Hastings involved the fae, but I dunno if that counts as a war per se.
Oh, and there are the Sidhe Wars that Bob talked about in 'Ghost Story', about how they fought against the Fomor. So that one'll be plot relevant at least.

I think Eb's ideas of safety for his family was just on the supernatural side of things and it's just shows how out of touch wizards' society is when all the mortal/'vanilla' dangers aren't considered. I think that's the big reason why he's having so hard a time with what Harry's saying to him. Or at least it's a big factor in it.
Correct if I'm wrong, but wasn't Harry's falling into the cracks at least a little magical, or is that just an impression I got from 'Journal'?

@Mira: Thanks for all the info. That's pretty helpful. Though I did know that social workers are called in by a matter of choice. But hey, I'm w/ Vriah at this point. It's moot. I figured it'd be an avenue baddies would try to exploit if they didn't want to get physical.

Forget social workers, all someone would have to do is shine a light on how Maggie even got to the US in the first place, and Harry would be under immediate investigation from the FBI, CIA, and any other agency that investigates international crimes - for murder, kidnapping, and human trafficking at the least.

And wouldn't officials still be trying to figure out/deal with what happened at Chicken Pizza? Would they be able to link Harry to that? I'm not sure how Harry would react to that beyond panic.

@Mira: She wasn't born on US soil. Social Workers aren't always brought in for abuse cases. Any Svartelf jurisdiction probably won't be recognized by the US. That'd be an interesting thing to read to about. 

Huh, how would that have come about do you think?

Exactly! Though this does make me wonder about LeFay as a person.

@Dina: I can't quite remember what was said about Harry's post death, but I think he's been getting things together again. Though now that I think about it, the fact that he's been mysteriously dead/vanished for a year and w/ no way to tell mortal authorities what happened, I don't think that would look too good for his record. Sure, he could try to get custody, but he probably won't.
@Mira: Yeah I'm not too sure what the Illinois law has to say that.
@SpacedCowboy: Neat, I didn't know that. Well thing is, I think they'll take a look at Harry's history and decide that they do need to intervene.

@Mira: Well, I think we're going around in circles in regards to citizenship.
I meant parents that are incapable of taking care of their children. As in they aren't getting enough food, clothes, or shelter. Or if their parents are having trouble looking after themselves let alone their kids, such as addiction or severe illness or injury. Sorry, I should have been more clear.
@Arjan: Well what if they're mortal authorities trying to do their jobs and not mooks for supernatural hitters?
