@Erin they aren’t telling me any reason
You need to demand a reason. The social don’t just take your baby away from you without there being a reason. Please request to speak to someone else, lodge a complaint against your case worker if it means you’ll get speaking to someone who can provide an explanation or clarity around the situation. All the best!
@Sarah it didn’t add up
This definitely sounds like racism! They won't take a child from a white couple of drug abusers (I've seen it) but they would take yours ? I would try to find a mums group on Facebook and ask them who you can contact to have legal representation so they can help you out. You should definitely be told what's happening or why they are threatening you.
@Amandine they keep saying that and my partner starts panicking
@Amandine they keep saying that and keep talking on top of my partner. honestly they won’t even let me take my Abby where I feel comfortable and controlling me the child protection worker. And they aren’t open about what concerns they’ve got. They keep saying we’ve got concerns about your relationship and your baby. And say we can’t disclose that information. but also say they will take bub away from me and my partner cause he’s not a citizen of this country but I am and taking my mental health on everything. I don’t know but they’re treating this strange it’s not how the world works. where just new parents and where learning instead of support they keep saying we’ve will remove the child from your care.
I would definitely try and ask for a different case worker (maybe say that you have concerns they are treating you differently because of your skin colour?), but definitely ask other mums who to contact so you can get legal advice
@Amandine yeah I will.its not nice to be treated like that

If the case worker won’t speak to you about that the “issue” is, demand to speak to someone with authority to disclose that information - they can’t disclose who made the report but shouldn’t be withholding reason.
