Ok, i started a thread here the other day titled "An unsuitable placement". Basically my 14 yr old foster d has been moved to another placement where there are 2 bothers in the family (sw said 14 and 16 but i think from talking to foster d they are 15 and 17) and a 16/17 year old foster son. As foster d has recently become sexually active I was concerned about the placement.
She keeps texting me saying she fancies all the lads and one of them has asked her out. She says they (the lads) go drinking in the shed at night and that one of them came into her room drunk the other night. Nothing happened, she pretended she was asleep but apparently he had been looking for her to go drinking with them. The foster parents go to bed early apparently and have no idea that this is going on. One of the lads has now asked her out and she is over the moon.
So do I have a word with the social worker about this? I dont want them to think I'm interfering, technically its none of my business but i'm so concerned for her safety there. On the other hand fd is inclined to exagerate and stretch the truth a little on ocassion so this may not all be true.
