Hi

From my experience, I would say but you might get reasonable social worker and it depends if the foster carers are prepared to supervised. I was allowed a phone call on Christmas day, they may allow this.

Re: Made out to be a monster

This is pretty much what happened to me except the hospital backed me and the so did the police. The social workers overwrite the all the opinions from the day one to present day. All the physical stuff has fallen by the wayside over the last 15 months, I have been excused of emotional and psycholog...

Re: Returning to court

I have mostly not bad mouthed either the children's father or social services, this has been hard because I knew when the recommendations for the children to return to the dad was a mistake for exactly reasons that are unfolding now, for example that he is abusive, he has no experience of caring for...
