Unsupervised access to child
Notifications OFF
My ex partner has not been able to see our child unsupervised for over 2 years. He technically didn't do anything illegal - but did admit a sexual attraction to underage children - hence Social Services put a plan in place for him to have supervised contact with our child. I have been supervising the contact.
He has since engaged with the Stop it Now courses and has been seeing a therapist weekly for over a year now. He now understands the root of his problematic behaviour and has some strategies in place to help prevent him from going down that path again.
We would like it if he could have unsupervised access to our child.
Has anyone had any experience in asking Social Services to reconsider and and allow your person to see your child unsupervised?
We are drawing up a safety plan and he's asked his therapist to confirm he's attended therapy. Is there anything else we can do?
Child is at primary school and there is no court-order from Social Services over the contact.
Thanks in advance,

My partner originally was considered high risk etc He admitted sexual attraction too
We lost our daughter to the system for 18 months.
They said I couldn't supervise and he couldn't be alone with her.
She came home after 18 months he's now allowed unsupervised contact as long as no personal care on his own.
We didn't even ask to be honest they suggested it .
Just want to give you a bit of hope that it is possible :)
I would say when considering saftey plan include things like no personal care and one we put in is not allowed in her bedroom.

Thanks for your reply, and for the tips on the safety plan. I hadn't really considered how personal care would work. Our child is still quite young and needs a little help now and again. Something to think about.
I'm glad your child came home.
Hope is always appreciated! It can be in short supply sometimes!

No worries.
And yes something to think about. Our little one is also little (2).
When she's older will be easier when she can do things on her own.
And thank you it was a very hard road but got their in the end
And yes sometimes hope can be hard to come by.
Glad I can give you a little bit :)
