Will this get rid of them?

[MrsSnape]

I posted this on my other thread too but thought I'd put it in its own thread so more people see it and hopefully reply.

Basically I went into a scheme voluntarily with the social work department from the local university and they are supposed to be helping me deal with my sons behaviour. "they" are a student social worker and his assistant (fully registered social worker).

I signed a form saying they could go into school to speak with DS and the usual confidentiality forms.

I've since had a huge re-think and no longer want them involved. I feel like everything I do or say is being watched and analised and I just want rid of them and want to be left alone basically.

But i don't know if they'll go quietly, surely as I went into it voluntarily they can't insist on remaining involved if I no longer want them?

I am going to phone them tomorow with this script, does it sound ok?

"I've been thinking things over and since we're doing well on our own lately and things are improving I've decided it might be a good idea for us to see how it goes on our own for a few months and maybe give you a call if things don't work out?"

If he pushes it I'm thinking of adding "well to be honest I don't think his teacher is going to be very supportive of DS being taken out of lessons when he's already behind either and apart from that, I don't really want him to feel singled out so I think its best if we carry on as we are and see how things go. Thanks for the help you've given us so far though and we will get back in touch if things don't carry on improving."
