Hi HopingonaMiracle,
I really hope the PLO meeting today went better than you feared.
I don’t want to bring discouraging news, but I think the outcome you’re hoping for may still be some way off, and it’s going to take time and steady work to get there. From what you’ve described, it sounds as though Social Services are concerned that you may be minimising the risks your person presents. They may also worry that your emotions and understandable feelings could affect your judgement, which in turn makes them question whether you’re able to fully safeguard your children. And while every child’s safety and wellbeing must come first, I also understand how painful it can feel to be judged—especially when you’ve already been through so much.
For now, I think the most helpful focus is on the things you can control: cooperating fully with assessments, engaging in the process, helping to put a strong safety plan in place, and showing a clear commitment to your children’s safety and wellbeing.
to be honest the call today come as a big shock after my solicitors response
they said quite literally they want to update my assessment within 4-5 weeks, and from there have me supervise gradually until my husband can come home
First time they have EVER mentioned an end goal in this situation , give me hope they have some faith in me and perhaps put light at the end of the tunnel is coming, I know it will take time. But once we're working my toward it, it will become bareable for us
Solicitor did appear surprised at their clear plan for going forward, he's low for contact offending and medium for online
also it seems like the psych assessment has took some responsibility off the ss, they seem more accepting to thinks we are proposing, before they would not budge, seems the only explanation for how much they suddenly want to progress, feels like a sudden shift in their attitude toward it all
