MY THOUGHTS
Social Workers think that they are Psychiatrists, or psychologists.
My friends, then 14year old son was diagnosed with autistic by CAMBS and a senior Psychologist,but the Social Worker said that the boys bizarre behavior was put down to his single Mothers poor parenting skills.
The Mother was dealing with Social Services,, because of using respite care.
When he was 15 he started getting into the electrical circuits in the house at night while Mum was asleep, out of fear of being prosecuted for neglect,if he electrocuted himself, and after much soul searching, she handed over to the Local Authority on a second 20 order.
With the right kind of support, a carer at night, she would of been able to cope.
The boy was placed with foster carers, that had experiance of caring for children, under this spectrum.
After several weeks the placement broke down, even they couldn’t cope with his challenging behavior.
