As the mother was physically fighting with her son (aged about 13) and goading him to punch her. I have listened for months since they moved in to their screaming. I've otten seen him outside crying when she has thrown him out. I know he has behavioral difficulties but listening to what has been going on its hard not to think that that ois because of they way his mother treats him. The fathers lives elsewhere and she has also had a violent relationship with another man whilst living here.
Their back door was open and the whole street could hear what was happening and when I heard her sa 'go on, punch me' over and over I just snapped and rang ss without thinking about it any further.
It is something I've thought about doing in the past but know the citcumstances for kids of his age in care are not good. I hope it doesn't come to that of course.
I really just hope they can help her with anger management or better parenting skills, or something.
I am very worried that I have done the right thing. Also, I asked to be kept ananymous but am also afraid my windows will be put out sometime in future anyway.
