Hello gemsmomof8

Welcome along, and I am so sorry to hear about what you have been going through.

So SS have told you that you need to separate from the father of your children and you have now done this and yet you still feel they are against you? What do Women's Aid say? They need to be involved in your re-settlement plans. Your solicitor needs to ask SS what they would be happy with, in order for you to get your children back. Someone from the refuge can go with you to see the solicitor and you have the right to get a different one if this person is not acting fully in your interests.

Please also contact The Family Rights Group (click) as they are specialists in supporting families with social services involvement. It's hard to get through on the phone but you can also email them.

If you've left him then surely you deserve a chance? Things like this sicken me when I see what idiots are allowed to get in to the system as employees (I won't put it on here though).

If you have eliminated the risk then they should in all fairness perhaps just put a liason officer to visit weekly for starters. I can't see how they can just take them.
