Hello
I hope this is the right forum. Sorry if it’s not. My estranged daughter only recently, the past 3 yrs, has come back into our family life after years as a wayward teenage living around the country and involved in drugs and god knows what. She seems to have settled down with a partner and she’s just had a lovely baby girl but she is still a little ‘stand-offish’ and cagey at times.
To cut a long story short, we as grandparents were visited by a very nice lady from social services and we are still a little dumbfounded what it was all about. They were essentially checking us out to see how involved we are with my daughter and how we would be supporting.
Sounds strange not to know what it was all about but the social worker wasn’t too explicit and my daughter is very cagey about it saying it was just to check us out.
I’m just worried my daughter might be struggling and not letting on and that social services might have been assessing her not us so to speak.
Any ideas what kind of process this might have been part of?
Thanks
J
