Too few social workers see children in care alone

Too few social workers see children in care alone

MY THOUGHTS

Social Workers are on Facebook most days, monitoring the accounts and pages of parents who state that they have children wrongly taken into care.

One Parent was threatened by their Social Worker for using the PAIN Ning Website in the past couple of days.

Social Workers do have sites on facebook, i do not consider it very professional for Social Workers to talk to children on social networking sites, due to the confidentiality clause,with reference to any computer being hacked.

AND SURELY THE FAMILY COURT JUDGES WOULD NOT BE TO HAPPY WITH REGARDS TO THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN BEING IDENTIFIED.

It would be good if a child’s key worker, could give older children their mobile number, especially teenagers.
