Thanks for joining us on the forum – glad to have you here. You are welcome to post 24/7 but please note that whilst we have forum moderators we will only be moderating the forum during office hours. If though you need urgent crisis help, please contact Samaritans on 116 123.

Spurgeons and Dad.Info doesn’t investigate reports of abuse or neglect. But below, you can find advice on who to contact if you have concerns about a child or young person.

 

Reporting a concern

It can be difficult to know what to do if you think a child is at risk. It’s important to remember that if you’ve spotted things that don’t seem right, others will have too. Speaking up can make sure that child gets help as soon as possible.

 

The sooner you contact your local children’s social care duty team, the quicker they can act. They’re available 24 hours a day, and can make an anonymous report if that feels safer. If a child is in immediate danger, please call the police straight away by dialling 999.

 

Report child abuse or neglect to your local council

My ex has just told me that she is seeing someone else (and has been for more than 6 months). I am gutted, but I don't know why? I know we weren't going to get back together, even though we're going abroad in june cause she invited me. nothing has actually changed, they've been together all this time, but I feel like they've pulled the rug from under me.

It's a difficult one trying to move on. You need to make sure you are looking after yourself, exercising or going to the gym is a good start and try to find some hobbies or activities so you can start to have a life away from your ex.

Hi There,
.
It is hard as actd has said, with all that goes on in break ups, there is still part of you that has feelings for the that person, so when the door is fully closed it can be hard to take, I'm sure with time, it will ease and you will feel better about things, as actd has said look after yourself maybe find a gym and start working out the better you feel about yourself the quicker things will move forward.

If you haven't already, it's also worth considering attending some counselling and talk to somebody neutral. Your GP will be able to refer you or provide details of centres you can self refer to.

I am still doing my hobbies and stuff, but with work, and the times I have my son, I never really seem to have time to really get stuck in these days. And I keep thinking about how she's even met this guy. I thought I knew how she spent the time when I'm taking care of our son for her, so it just seems out of nowhere.

Sorry to dump on you guys, I'm not good at talking out loud, I get all jumbled. I do feel better about it today though. Sort of determined to get on with my life too.

Meeting people is a lot easier these days, as you can do it online initially, so it's not necessarily a surprise there. You need to try to get that out of your mind though, it's the past, and you need to be looking forward, both for your son and for your own wellbeing - it takes time, but it does happen.
