Biased

Has anyone had experience with social services and courts etc. being biased towards the mother and never getting anything sorted, despite the mother having the damaging lifestyle around the kids? We don’t know what else to do in terms of sorting court orders and having social see our perspective on things. It’s like they turn a blind eye. BM has had a number of different boyfriends, on and off again with some, moving them into the house after a short time and all that. Even her own mother (kid’s nan) has had a number of relationships too, her most recent one the kids now call grandad! Always going out clubbing and drinking on a weekend, leaving the kids with others, leaves them home alone in the day sometimes too. Everytime our concerns are raised they just seem to take her side.

If the dad is on the birth certificate he can take the child to live with him. He can also apply for primary carer of the child bit then it's a lengthy process of court dates

Oh my god I could have written this myself! Even down to the nan! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I don’t have any advice unfortunately as we’re going back to court again 🙄 she’s a narcissist so it’s incredibly difficult to prove she’s the damaging one as it always gets put across as “different parenting styles “ 😞 xx

My advice would be to get into the courts first. They favour whoever has applied. Get your points in first and raise your concerns for the kids! Unfortunately experienced something similar (BM applied) and it was an awful year to experience!
