[QUOTE="Gone, post: 641237"] I feel very similar I THINK I smelt alcohol on my difficult child's breath last time I saw her , but according to her she has ''stopped drinking and is doing well'' Something doesn't feel right though , she is not transparent as of yet and just seems to tell people ''what they want to hear'' I told her Aunt I suspect she is still drinking , her Aunt who has not even seen much of her says she suspects she hasn't stopped drinking either as she is used to the 'shpiel' .... ''I'm doing well'' ... ''I've stopped drinking'' ...''I'm going to get my son back soon'' It's not that simple , it is the child protection agencies JOB / role to PROTECT children from any potential harm or risk and they are NOT going to hand her child back to her so early into her ''recovery'' ( ie in her books about 5 weeks ) that is WAY too early to have him back even though my heart [B]ACHES[/B] to spend Christmas with him I want what is best for HIM I suggested I move in with her for a month if he is returned as he is in 'voluntary' care , not 'court ordered' so we will see what happens but I do want to protect him either way , whatever happens and I have told SS of my suspicions about her still possibly drinking and told them about her cannabis use and asked them to do a blood test before he is possibly returned but I don't see it happening even though she has the 'parental right' to take him out of care at present any worries and SS will have to get a court order and we lose him FURTHER into the system! :pouting: [/QUOTE]
