Hi. We have a 11 year old son and 9 year old daughter. Our son got angry last week and hit a window pane. We took him to A&E. Thankfully he will be fine, very lucky. But hospital reported it to social services.
We know he has a developing anger issue. He's been through school nurse 'step 1' (didn't help at all), and after a lot of persuading to the school nurses from us, he is now on the waiting list for 'step 2'. But this week social services came to the house. They said they need to make sure our children are safe with us!!!!!
We've been asking help for our son for months and just keep get put on waiting lists. They said if the children are safe (!!!!!!) our son might get referred to step 2 (so the waiting list we are already on!!).
The said they will go and visit the children away from us, at school. To talk to them there alone. I'm terrified. I have hardly slept since. We have nothing to hide, but it will frighten the children and how do we know what they interpret the childen have said.
We had to email confirm that they can access all of our medical records!!!!!! In that same email, asking our concent to give access to our data they put all of our DoB. How on earth do they know those?!?!?!
I want our children's teachers there when Social services talk to the children. Will that be allowed? What will happen? I am so scared.
