This does not make sense. How many other children does your ex partner have and who are they with?
SS job is to safeguard the child. Why are they leaving a child with an unfit mother?
They will generally try to work with the resident parent to improve the circumstances rather than take a child away, and to keep an eye on the welfare of the child for as long as they think is necessary.
That's pretty much what they told me
My argument is this is now the third time socail have had to step in against her and they are still resisting actually doing any action despite admitting emotional harm has happened and a case can be made for physical harm but no hard evidence so they are simply sitting back and watching as the kids suffer
Your guess is as good as mine I've had the common sense approach the whole way though this ordeal
They agree risks are to high not to be involved with mother and agree abuse has already happened. However there stance on it is we will support her to get her through it.
Ok fair enough if this was the first time and a cry for help but this is the third time they have had to step in and get involved in under 2 years so my argument is how bad does the abuse have to be before they say enough is enough
I gave them a statement they couldnt/wouldn't answer
They say kids at risk with mother but not at risk with me so give me the kids fix mother and then we can discuss this properly seems like common sense to me but they just looked dumbfounded and basically told me kids are better with mother than farther the system is set up so mother gets everything farther gets [censored] on
