Please help me...

My OH brother who was supervised contact of my little son and his dad just said that he gonna stop do it after Christmas...

We don't have anyone who can do it so what I have to do to change decisions of ss ( we are on CIN plan) to be able to supervise the contact myself....

I am so scared as my son till now had only 4 hours per month (as uncle didn't want to do more than that )and now we may not have chance to have anything....

I feel so sorry for my baby boy....

I would recommend asking the SS for advice, because they hopefully will be eager to find a solution as it isn't fair for your child to lose the routine and risk not seeingbtier father for long periods of time.

We are also struggling to find an alternative, can the father pay towards a professional supervisor? Maybe see if your brother could do it occasionally and swap with others? To share the load. Supervising is tough and hard on family members, they can't really fully connect with children because they have to be on guard and focus on safeguarding.

Thank you ladies for replying.

I have sent an email to my ss with question of help to find the solution for my situation.

He said that he will have a meeting with his manager tomorrow and on Friday he would like to make a visit in my place to tell me what the decision is.

Please of any advice what can help me on this day...
