I'm in the UK.
Our health visitor suggested a referral to a social worker for extra support around my mental health issues. I was happy to accept additional support, but she failed to tell me it wasn't an adult social worker she was referring us to, but a children's social worker because apparently she has concerns for our children's welfare. She did NOT clarify this at all.
Having just got their 'report' through, I am FUMING. There are a huge number of mistakes but what's worse is their inaccuracy. The lies that have been told about me is just awful and they have done nothing but paint me in a bad light. I am being blamed for just about everything and all the problems we have faced and they even have the nerve to tell, not suggest but TELL us our relationship is basically doomed to failure because of me. They stated that we will resent each other, we're dishonest to each other and other things too. This is after meeting us twice. They also said without "professional help" I will never recover. That's optimism for you.
I cannot go into this properly because its just too long winded, but do I have to have their involvement? Or can I tell them we do not wish for any more contact with them? This is not a child protection case.
I am currently noting every mistake they've made and clearing up the lies they have told. Angry doesn't even come close.
