It’s very upsetting for you all, but please be assured that your bond with your child won’t be lost, and it’s great that your daughter is getting on better
It’s so frustrating when paperwork goes missing, hopefully the proof you sent will be enough to get your Legal Aid in place.
As there has been abuse in your relationship, mediation isn’t a prerequisite, although if you wanted you could agree to shuttle mediation, which is where you would both sit in separate rooms and the mediator would go between you.
Could you ask Social Services to arrange for you to see your child in their offices perhaps? The way he was taken was wrong and it will have left him distressed and confused.
Best of luck
Thank you. Apparently social worker saw my son and he seemed fine. He is fine at nursery too but he lives far away cant say where as give details away but in the holidays I could ask. He cant communicate well so it will be hard for him to express himself. Social worker said he is accusing me of emotional abuse. its hilarious what he said and I could not keep a straight face lets jist say bedroom department was never an issue but there you go. Its he said and she said.
I guess I worry about the bond as the weeks pass and I never stop thinking of him but need to stay super suprer strong for my other 2.
