Please help me

my 3 year old has told her nursery that her dad has thrown her out of the window (he most definitely hasn’t) and I’ve got a social worker calling me tomorrow to check in with us a family. She has been stripped down and checked for bruising, and nursery have said that they have no reason to believe this is true and they do not have any concerns about her wellbeing. Has anyone else been through anything similar? My children are well looked after, and social services are my biggest fear, both myself and her dad both had them around during the whole of our childhood and it’s not something I’d ever want around our children. Basically what I’m asking is what happens during that phone call, and if there is no concern what will happen after? Is a social worker part of social services and am I now being investigated by them? Will my name always been known to them now?

If social services was around you and your family in childhood your name is already always known to them . Yes a social worker is part of social services There will be a case but it won’t mean it will lead to an investigation If there is no concern they’ll just close the case During the phone call they’ll just ask you questions (I don’t know what specific questions) but it’ll just be so they can get an insight into how your children are treated at home and raised and what not

@Eli thank you so much for your reply. I’ve chilled out now, I think social services tend to have a bad name for “taking children without reason” but I know even if they do investigate they will not find a thing. So I just need to see how the phone call goes and go from there. Thanks again

I have no advice but kids have such an imagination and it doesn’t always go in our favour 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️

@Rhi honestly!? I know a few children that have lied to nursery, myself included as a child. But saying she’s been thrown out of a window?? Where do they get it from 😂😂

My daughter went through a phase of lying about silly things. She told me her cousin fell out of a moving car and broke his arm, I believed her and went barmy about it - turns out he fell off the sofa at home with his mum & dad and fell on his arm funny! 🤣 my daughter also wasn’t present when this happened! I explained to her that telling lies like that can land people in serious trouble. She hasn’t done it since xx
