Family and Friends Forum

After being served with CYPS papers last week tomorrow I go to see a solicitor to fight and prove I'm a safe suitable parent to keep my children.
the list they gave for reasons against me is either lies or the SW personal judgement on me as well as my ex.
I know that this is my own personal battle and I don't hold much hope really as in the past SW and SS I feel Have already made there minds up about me and my family before talking to me and getting my side on things. No matter how much I argue with them that they are wrong about me and my children the more I lose my temper with them and I'm seen as highly emotional which goes against me.
I hate my SW with a passion now and how I'll ever be civil or keep my cool with her again is a mystery.
I just hope and pray my Solicitor can fight my corner and get my side across but like I say I don't hold much hope.
Im not looking for advice as I've found people I've told either say the wrong thing which upsets me or if they say the right thing I feel they are telling me what I want to hear.
I only ask that you keep everything crossed for me and from 1pm tomorrow (Monday) send me all the positive thoughts and luck that you can please and if you pray please pray for me.
thanks for reading and I hope it's ok to ask this of you.

Thanks you everyone I think it went ok basically I've got to do everything the SW wants and jump through hoops to keep her happy. A lot on the list is what my ex has done and said but I can't control this she didn't seem overly concerned about what my youngest had told school about seeing his dad. I've got to accept all help they offer as depression was mentioned in the list of things against me.
they hadn't included an action plan list for me to follow nor a list of solicitors in my area in the paperwork they sent which they were supposed to do as it says it's included. I asked solicitor if we can bring this up at the meeting with them as if I've got to follow everything by the letter then they should too. I still don't hold much hope because like I've said before and told my solicitor they will have already have made there minds up about me and the situation I'm in. So next time I see my SW I have to smile sweetly while trying to keep the hate boiling within.
thanks again everyone x

Hi mindful

no I didn't I wanted someone I could go and talk to face to face and hand the paperwork and any future paperwork to them in person. Why do u ask?
I have a trainee solicitor which I'm not best pleased about but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and will see how we get on we all have to start out somewhere. I did ask if she'd had many cases like mine and she said yes and mine wasn't the worst she'd seen.
thanks for replying x
