To thinkbeing in care, as a child, doesn't mean I'll be a bad mum

I feel I am treated with hostility for this,and it upsets me.Can anyone explain why?

Well that's odd because myself being in care was never mentioned and they had no idea. I'm sorry but if I were asked about family supper etc then my answer is yes plenty, you don't raise red flags yourself then wonder why they will want to further intervene. They either have concerns with you or they don't. Don't feed them, you have your baby, thank you good day here's a card thanks for all your help with pregnancy and and the birth, fair well.

And in terms of baby groups etc you can't say to them "they're not for me" 1, they are not for you, they are for the baby and 2, if they have concerns already you don't make it worse

Sorry if you think I'm coming across and little harsh but I have experience and the last thing (I) would want is nosey social workers in my business. Never had them and would never want to either, it's a life long intervention which given your own experience I would expect you want to avoid

On further thought, it may depend on your age as to whether it's on your medical records or not.
