Hi
I'm and really scared and upset about this and I need some advice not sleeping well or eating properly
I have two children 9 son and and 8yr daughter who has ASD diagnosed at 3yrs old 9 yr is undergoing associated for ADHD. we had an accident at home and my 8yr old hit the 9yr old in the face with a plastic pole he had a small mark on his face. I loss my temper and shouted at my 8yr old and tap on the back with the item so she new how it felt I didn't leave a mark and it wasn't hard. After I left the room I broken down in tears as I felt horrible for shouting I went and apologise
to my 8yr for shouting at her and for the tap on the back We cried and hugged it out.
Next day my 9yr old has told school his sister hit him on the face and I hit his sister ( I didn't hit her it was a tap ) he told them it left a mark they called social services and they called us in and wanted to see the mark the my 9yr has told them about my 8yr old has a mark on her bum from falling of her skate board a few days earlier. told the truth and admitted I did tap her on the back as I was anger and i loss my temper what parent hasnt ( both my kids fighter all the to time and I have been struggling with there behaviour)
The social Work has taken a pic oh my daughter mark on her bum and she has come to the house talk to me and hubby we have both said we are struggling and need help she also looked at where the kids sleep . I admit I shouldn't of tap her with the item it was a mistake and i regarding it
What happens next. I'm so scared I love my kids and would never harm them.
