To keep my son off school.

GM.

My partner has been admitted into hospital for treatment for his OCD.

Our 6 year old son is upset and confused, our 17 month old is staying at my partners mother until he has finished his treatment and is feeling better.

Yesterday he behaved pretty badly, and is refusing to go to school today. I really don't want to send him, because I don't know how he is going to behave whilst there, and I will probably be on edge for the whole day

Hi there OP,
We just wanted to say hello, really, and offer you a bit more support as you're obviously having a really tough time right now. Reading might be the last thing you want to do right now, which is fine, but if you get a moment it might be an idea to see if any of these Women's Aid resources ring a bell.
We're glad to see you getting support from the wonderful women of Mumsnet, do stick around, but also do seek help and support in real life too.

Hi all,
Just to re-iterate that our guidelines on troll-hunting have not and will not change. We ask that if you have concerns about a poster you report the thread and let us do our jobs. We can never vouch for anyone 100%, of course, but in this instance it's abundantly clear from our own post on this thread that we are giving this poster the benefit of the doubt.
Anyone who doesn't wish also to do so is welcome to click away and view any of the other hundreds of thousands of posts that are available on MN, but wherever you are we must insist that you post within guidelines.

Hi all,
We have made several deletions and would like to thank those who have brought posts to our attention (bearing in mind the final decision as to what to do is always ours). We will be speaking to quite a few posters.

We'd like to remind everyone for the second time on this thread that troll-hunting is not allowed on MN. It introduces doubt and mistrust and, when wrong, the results can be very damaging. We politely ask that you report, and then let us do our job in the background. If your suspicions mean you no longer wish to participate in the thread, so be it.

Candidly, we have been shocked at the lack of empathy in some of the responses on this thread, and we can see that we have some work to do.
We can never vouch for a poster 100%, and we never try to, but where we have investigated background and asked for the benefit of the doubt to be given we would expect MNers to either click away or stick around to help.

Do please have another look at our guidelines. If you feel you can't post within them, then perhaps consider that Mumsnet may not be the site for you.

Hi all,
Given the OP's statements that she no longer intends to post tonight, and the fact that this is still attracting guideline-breaking posts we think it's best if we close this overnight and give everyone some time to reflect on whether they are helping at this stage.
