I do not have small children so cannot give any advice about SS, but just wanted you to give you a virtual hug. The authorities should be treating you as a victim and not adding to your problems.



i am sorry i cannot give out much more advice than that. X

SS are a tricky bunch.

Having two small children myself, I empathise with everything you're saying, and it's true, how dare she touch your DS that way!

As your thread name says, I know you feel horrendous but it's pretty normal circumstances and the SW crossed a line there. Fuming for you.

Big hugs x

Can I just say, I would have done exactly the same. In fact I would be making a complaint about the fact that the SW seemingly tricked you into speaking to your daughter alone and also about what she did to your son.

That said, after making several complaints to Children's Services, it makes no difference!

I don't think you should be saying sorry at all I have two toddlers your post as made me angry at SS if ours was to do that to either of my children she would be out the house I wouldn't care who she was. I'd make a massive complaint this morning through email to the manager and ask for a different person and state she will not be allowed in the house again so you want somebody that is going to help protect your children not boarderline threaten them

Your LA will have a complaints procedure. Use that. If you just comllain to a manager there is no guarantee of a response, but if you use the official procedure, it has to be dealt with.

Everything crossed for you Dragonmama, it's a good job she has a mother like you behind her!



it's not good enough them just saying yes we don't think it's right either they need a kick up the arse, they should never forget the child at the heart of all of all of this! I'm met with they have massive caseloads really busy etc. Yes but that's not our problem!

Even if you get no where with it I always think it helps to get it off your chest and to let them know you won't be messed around!

When is your next CP conference?
