"Earlier this year I began chatting to a now ex-fabber. We got on well enough to exchange numbers and our chat covered the sexual and the everyday. We arranged to meet. My work takes me Europe wide and on one day I was in her hometown. I asked to meet but she insisted I visit her at home.I knew she had three children and she reassured me that they would be at school and as it was only over the road,anytime after 08:40 would be fine. As I walked to her home she text me her address and had put her door on latch and that she was a-waiting. With a nervous but excited gait I pushed on the door...... The smell of cat urine was eye stingingly obnoxious.Takeaway food lay strewn amongst piles of clothes.A bird was flying freely and the carpet was covered by open bin laders of rubbish. I shut the door and briskly walked away. I made an excuse. What I did after Ive felt guilt since. I rang the kids school and relayed the conditions.The receptionist thanked me. No child should live in that,but,who am I to judge a person. What would you have done?" Was not expecting the story to take that turn. | |||

"Am more concerned about how you knew which school her kid's went to and their names rather than the state of the house. I work in social housing if I reported every messy house I went in I'd never get any work done. Besides just because someone is untidy doesn't make them a bad parent, just lazy." She told him the school was over the road, and he could have just given the address, he wouldn't have needed to know the kids names? | |||

"As long as you gave a factual account of what you saw and made no assumptions or jumped to any conclusions what's there to feel guilty about? Would I have phoned the school? Probably not, it isn't a crime to have a filthy house." isnt a sign of neglected kids either. | |||

" Kids aren’t taken away just because the house was filthy on one occasion. But, if social services did get involved then hopefully the woman is now getting the support she needs and her children are enjoying life in clean, hygienic conditions. Children need adults to look out for them, too many people turn a blind eye and that just enables neglect or abuse. | |||

"that's a good point and yes I did. Like ladies who get their friends to ring at a pre-set time on a first date I did have a back up. I said that Id been recalled to work. She accepted this." That's good. I'm glad you dud that. | |||

"i just feel like a tattle tale...." None of us saw what you did. You made a judgement call at the time. If you hadn’t made the call, no doubt you’d be thinking / maybe worrying that there are children being neglected and you hadn’t done anything about it. Assuming intervention from some authority was made, they’d either verify and act on the situation or disagree with you and no further action. I think you did the right thing. | |||

No. I'm ambivalent on this. | |||

"Do you think you would do it again if you were faced with the same scenario? If you wouldn't, then you know, deep down, you were wrong. If you would, then you have nothing to feel guilty about." I guess that's the nexus of the crisis. Truthfully I dont know.It's made me feel jaded bit then how would I feel if I didnt. regards | |||

I'm guessing the school etc wouldn't tell you because of confidentiality. So I think you have to suck it up. You're not going to get definitive absolution here. | |||

"First thing first; let's all remember that he travels all over Europe, and he was in her hometown. We don't even know which country he was in, so we don't know what the social service system is like in that country. One would hope that they try and work with the parent/parents to try and make things better, and provide help where needed. People are calling this woman a dirty bitch and such, but to be fair, we don't know the full situation. It could have been sheer laziness, or it could be that she has some underlying mental illness that makes it extremely hard sometimes for her to juggle her life around to do everything. Sure, she shouldn't have been inviting people into a house in that state, and should have been using that time that she had set aside to meet someone to get on top of the mess. But, without a full picture, we can't really judge everything. As for feeling guilty; it's natural, but you shouldn't. You did the right thing in telling the school. The kids might be being monitored, but they also may not be. As I said; different country, different system. Hopefully this family will get the help they need, as a whole, and some kids will get a better life with their mum, who might start getting the medical attention that she needs" Absolutely | |||

"Even though it clearly didn't happen and is hypothetical, i do cringe at all the high and mighty people saying it was the right thing to do. The right thing to do was to have the balls to confront her on it and find out what mitigating circumstances (if any) there are, before running of to the gestapo to snitch on your neighbour. In safeguarding one is taught to err on the side of caution. The safeguarding team would prefer over-cautious reporters than a child slipping through the net. My issue is that people should have the balls to confront the situation and find out the facts rather that using the state as their first point of call for all social problems. It's funny to me that people living in an extreme individualist culture don't even seem to be aware of it, let alone the negative aspects. If a child needs safeguarding, your action could aggravate the situation. Unlike the stress of being monitored by social services with the implied threat of having your children taken away from you, yeah no way that could make the situation worse. As a professional, I'm happy to follow safeguarding protocols. As a parent, I'm happy to be monitored if someone believes my child is at risk. If only these protocols were in place 30-40 years ago!

If you were relying on historical evidence you would not want the state arbitrarily monitoring your parenting. Don't rant about childrens rights when you are pro abotion | |||

"Am more concerned about how you knew which school her kid's went to and their names rather than the state of the house. I work in social housing if I reported every messy house I went in I'd never get any work done. Besides just because someone is untidy doesn't make them a bad parent, just lazy. She told him the school was over the road, and he could have just given the address, he wouldn't have needed to know the kids names?" m Wonder who he said he was | |||

"You're all a bunch of hypocrites. The courts have taken children off people just for having no string sex with people from Pof. So everyone above who has children has reported their own behaviour to the council for monitoring and investigation?" Evidence? | |||

There would have been more than that for children to be removed from parents. | |||

So everyone above who has children has reported their own behaviour to the council for monitoring and investigation? Evidence?" If it's that case in Wolverhampton then there was a lot of factors that didn't make the papers and it's a bad example. However, the evidence is that tens of thousands of children are being unjustly taken from their parents because of the many people who assume big brother never gets it wrong so best to snitch first and ask questions later: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2017/jan/18/children-parents-foster-social-care-families-adoption | |||

So everyone above who has children has reported their own behaviour to the council for monitoring and investigation? Evidence?" I started a thread a couple of weeks ago about a couple in Wolverhampton who had their children removed and placed up for adoption because they were meeting people off Plenty of Fish separately and bringing them home for sex. No doubt other factors would have been taken into account but in broadstrokes the media reported it as swingers' children taken away. | |||
