This is a bit of a complicated one. I've had social services involved with my family on and off for a few years, due to my now-ex partner. He had them involved before we got together with his oldest daughter, and they've been in and out with our 2 children together since I was pregnant with our oldest together. Their main concerns have been around my ex drinking (he's an alcoholic) and his mental health (he's been diagnosed with complex mental health needs since we broke up). They have had no concerns around my parenting, care of the children, or their wellbeing, and I have been called a protective factor, and my protectiveness of the children and putting them first has been noted in the safety factors. Our social worker had been very on top of having meetings, seeing the children and keeping in touch, and very quick to respond.I broke up with my now ex-partner at the end of May, and since then, it has been almost impossible to get in contact with. Most recently, I messaged her nearly 2 weeks ago, and she's not read it let alone responded. Multiple phone calls have also gone unanswered, and she's not got back in touch with me. She's not been to see the children since the start of the summer holidays either, and that's been several weeks. A family support meeting was meant to be happening in June, but that was cancelled and was meant to be rescheduled, but it never was. Also, since I split up with my ex, there's not been any support she's been able to offer me or my children (who are 4 and under 1), as the vast majority of it was directed towards my ex partner. Health visitor has massively reduced her involvement, and has said she has no concerns, 4 year olds preschool has had no concerns around her wellbeing either. My ex-step daughter is living with my ex's mum under a Special Guardianship Order, and social worker is closing the case on her at the special guardian's request. My question is, can I ask to close the case with my children now too? In my mind, she clearly isn't concerned if she's not being in touch or answering my messages. I have asked for her plan of involvement going forward now that my ex isn't around, and the children are having supervised contact with him in the community once a month, and she has not replied. I am going to be trying to get in touch with her manager to raise the issue of no contact on Tuesday, but can I ask for their case to be closed? I don't feel like they can offer me or the children any support at the moment, and if she's not been in contact, then I feel like this is reasonable grounds to request closure. Children are on a child in need plan. Thank you for reading if you've got this far 😄🙃
