Tell me I'm tired and paranoid...

[GodKeepsGiving]

4 of my children are SN. I worry endlessly because they have autism and have rages and there is always loads of conflict - I always feel frightened that a social worker will come along and say it's all my fault and that I can't cope. I can, it's just difficult. I just want some reassurance really that others are plagued with the same self doubt, or is just me?

I've put this in Health because it's making me so stressed I feel ill. I posted in Special Needs too but nobody has replied.

So sorry you're feeling like this, it must be awful.

I havn't any advice and it's terrible you've had no replies but do you have a children's centre nearby? Ours has a counselling service and they offer support on all family issues. You may be able to get some free help.

hey there, I'm not sure that social workers spirit children away like you might be fearing - mostly they are great sources of support and help. I have two very ordinary children and am plagued with self doubt and fear that I am ruining their lives with my anger and unresolved issues and stuff - but I'm sure, absolutely sure, that overall they know they are loved. I wish I could help. I wouldn't be fearful of social workers if I were you - get all the help you can I say.
best of luck
