As far as I was aware, the 2 year development check was optional (like everything else in parenting). HV phoned me last week to arrange it and I said I didn't want it as DS1 is fine and I don't see it being relevant... Today received a recorded delivery letter from HV stating that my refusal is highly unusual and as such I should put my refusal in writing within 14 days!!!
She doesn't say what will happen if I don't do this within the time given... I'll probably phone her on Monday to discuss but it depends how angry I'm still feeling at the time...
Does she have any right to demand this in writing? Will I get referred to social services as an unfit mother if I don't cooperate with her?!
