PSO

I have a PSO because my ex kept kickin our eldest out, final straw was when he kicked him out at the start if the school term to go on holiday. Eldest (12) was so upset he threatened to hang himself.
Order states ex cannot take DS from me, school or any other third party.
I got the order as an emergency whilst ex was away, wen he was back a hearing was held for him to defend it but he failed to attend. PSO still stands.
Eldest has spoke to social services and told them he wants to go back. He said dad didn't kick him out, he wanted to leave and packed his own bags (this is a lie, dad emailed me to say he'd had enough and had packed his bags for him)
Social services can't see any reason why he shouldn't go back!
So tonight ex has text saying he's going back tonight, ss said it was fine and they've checked with legal and everything is fine and allowed!
Surely SS cannot overturn a court order? And certainly not without speaking to me first!??

No SS cannot overturn a court order. But you say that the order is to stop your ex taking your son from you. He isn't doing that. Your son is choosing to go to his father voluntarily. Unless it says that is not allowed the order is not being broken. And as your eldest is 12 his views would be a major factor, possibly the deciding factor, in the court's decision if this went back to court.

I thought that might be the case, although technically he will be removing his belongings also which is in effect, moving him back in.

I know his voice will be heard in court and it would be difficult to keep a child who doesnt want to be with me but with him he really deteriorates and it needs to stop. Court isnt for another 3 weeks......do I just accept it and let him go?
Can I be seen in any bad light for letting him do so by the court?

I suspect you are more likely to be seen in a bad light if you don't let him go. I'm sorry you find yourself in this situation.

Just checked and it states he cannot change his home address from that of his mothers, does that make a difference?
