Fake social worker

To the woman on the bus who pushed into my daughter, you barged into her so hard that she almost dropped her baby . Baby ended up hanging by the arm. When my daughter said something to you your reply was I don't give a fuck . A few angry words were said between you both .... it then went silent.

But the most disgusting part was a woman who had absolutely nothing to do with the above situation started shouting at my dd." Your disgusting, you should not be a parent, your a danger to them children. You then started saying your a social worker and your going to get the children taken away. Screaming stop the bus I have to call the police.

My grandson was screaming and crying that he did not want to be taken away. Do you have any idea how much trauma you have caused that little boy. Days later we are still having to reassure him . That the woman was not really a social worker and he's staying with mummy no one is taking him.

That little family is vulnerable. Dd is a dv survivor. She has mental health issues. Her son has special needs. Because of this dd had social services involvement for a long time. I told dd to call her social worker to get some reassurance. Which she did. Sw advised that dd should not let people like that bother her. And that the woman was disgusting.

Dd is now scared to use public transport. But you won't care will you . Because if your sick enough to pretend your social worker and make a child believe he's going to be taken away. Then your pretty sick.

Thank you to the lady who quietly said to dd its ok I saw what happend .

Just because a random person says children will be taken away does not mean they will be, it is up to the adults in their lives to explain this to the children

Sure this lady must have issues but someone is missing in all this weird people are on buses or in life a lot

Something is odd with this

I'm not sure what you mean. All I know is tje woman had absolutely no right to say what she did.

She will have to get past lt there's no choice. Logically it could not have happened. Dd was just a stranger on the bus . But when you have been through stuff you don't always see logic. Gs is not well so no school run for a few days . Hopefully she will be ok after a bit of a break.

I'm sorry that your daughter and grandchildren had such a distressing confrontation with these women. I actually would ask for CCTV from the bus company and take it to the police. No one should be verbally or physically attacked when using public transport. Or at all even.

Not sure why the first poster felt the need to reply OP. Half of it doesn't even make sense. Weird people are everywhere, doesn't give them the right to attack anyone. Ignore them.

What a silly cunt that woman was.

Sadly I don't think dd will do it. I just hope that woman has had some sort or reflection on the things she was saying and the damage she has caused.

Its true it does not make sense. Because there is no reason to act like that there's no sense to it no logic to it.

I’m very sorry this happened to your daughter on top of her past. People who down play it are dicks. Of course she was going to be upset and your grandson scared.
Asking for the CCTV is a good shout, but she’s spoken to her own social worker and that’s all good

Hi OP! This really struck a chord with me. I saw someone about 10 yrs ago stagger and fall on some one accidentally when the bus set off. They apologised but the person they fell against shouted aggressively at them for about 5 mins until the person was really upset. I didn't say anything but when I got off the bus I caught up with the person and tried to reassure them that it wasn't their fault and they had done nothing wrong. They were obviously really shaken up about it and it was a nasty thing to happen. I had forgotten until I just read your thread. They are nasty and mean people all over and we just have to hope we don't have to deal with them that much. Hope your daughter can feel better soon. Xxx

Yeah that's why I told dd to contact sw. I tried my best to reassure her but I'm mum I don't know anything... sw reassured her. I think she just needs a few days

That was really kind of you to catch up with her. It would have meant alot for her to hear that.
