Dc aren’t fed lunch, given a packet of biscuits or several packets of crisps. They are overweight.
Child at primary school not fully continent either way. Allowed to wet and carry on playing, not changed, smells of stale urine frequently. Regularly soils themselves. No action being taken as in gp appointment.
Child with a chronic skin condition is showered (when a bath would be more soothing) not daily, cream not applied regularly.
Dc sworn at and slapped in face, smacked, hair pulled (this is only what I have witnessed).
Would this be of concern to social services? They obviously are fed, clothed and taken to school in a semi reasonable state, is this just a sad case that unfortunately some parents are crap and lots of children will be in situations like this.
I know things could be a lot worse but I just find it upsetting and wonder if reporting to ss would actually do anything?
