We are nearing then end of the 45 days for SS to complete their assessment. I was told Thursday it should be completed Friday but I heard nothing, left a message with my case worker Friday asking for an update but heard nothing.

I'm just wandering what are the possible outcomes and how do you receive the information? will he call to let me know what they recommend or email me or be asked for a meeting?


I just want to be prepared as our case worker has not been great so far and I don't want to see him on my own or really have a phone conversation with him without suppport. he likes to twist words and say things like 'most people would not want to stay married to them if he's done this' but when I last saw him my sister-in-law was present and he seemed less hostile.

After repeatedly contacting the sw he finally called to say he has completed our report and basically nothing will change until his plea hearing (end of October)

Current arrangement is he lives with his parents and can only have supervised access with the children at their house or the family home with 2 adults supervising.

Ideally we want him home and at the least be able to go out as a family in public.

I have told them we want to remain a family and continually asked what else me or OH can do to minimise the risk but I don't get anything back, everything I have done so far has come from advice on this site

i have asked when I will receive the report but can't get a straight answer, he also mentioned arranging a meeting with him as chair, myself, LA and school.

Any advice on how I proceed or do I just grin and bear it until his plea hearing (will most likely be pleading guilty) then sentencing which would most likely be end November.
