imagine your 3 1/2 year old daughter telling you some "boy" with "all black eyes" and "gray skin" is grabbing her hand at night and taking her out of her room to a room with a bed where some "doctor" is hurting her by putting things in her ears and then tell us it is meaningless and generic B.S. nothing specific? this is coming from a 3 year old, how specific can this be?

Just throwing a friendly suggestion into the mix for interviewing witness's of any age.
The bit where the OP drew four pictures and had the daughter pick out one was not a good representation of "what she saw" I wouldn't expect the OP to know this, so its not an offense at all ( I believe in your story from other parts of it)
This is the same flaw with line ups if they are not constructed properly.
The Line Up:
1. Dog
2. Little Boy
3. Grey Face
4. Tele tubby
1. Known Object (without traits described by witness)
2. Known Object (without traits described by witness)
3. Unknown Object (with traits already told by witness)
4. Known Object (without traits described by witness)
This basically gives the witness only one choice to make, and we humans are very good at picking out the "disimilar" one from the lists. The grey was the only choice that was "unknown" and had traits the witness already described as seeing (big eyes, gray skin etc).
A better line up would have been:
1. Gray Dog, with Big eyes,
2. Gray Boy, with Big eyes,
3. Gray alien
4. Imaginary Monster (be creative, have big eyes, gray, maybe teeth etc)
5. Ordinary gray animal with big eyes (not known by witness, owl maybe etc)
That way all choices have traits that the witness recalled. And 2 are known objects, and two unknown objects. The 5th is an unknown object, with real traits described by witness (unlike big eyed boys/dogs)
Hope this helps for future interviewers :-)

They shocked you in your side? I use to have reacurring dreams where invisible beings would subdue me by shocking me between my waste bone and rib bone, right in the soft spot... I'd feel like I was electricuted, then paralyzed afterwards.

Kronos11 how did you become a 'former contactee'??
I always thought once they were 'contacting' you there was no stopping them, and you never were free from them again.......I believe it was a lifetime situation, am I wrong?
I am editing to add the link to the '___' vault, for anyone interested in learning more about it.
