Filed under the solemn documentation of professional farce parading as safeguarding.

Subject: Formal Complaint Regarding Ms Sally Silly and Her Mother – An Affront to Professional Standards, Boundaries, and Basic Decorum
π§Ύ Dear Guardians of Protocol (and, one hopes, Common Sense),
I write with the weary precision of one forced to narrate the utterly implausible — for no citizen should reasonably have to lodge a formal safeguarding complaint involving a social worker’s mother making an unsanctioned appearance at an official home visit.
And yet, here we are.
This complaint concerns Ms. Sally Silly, purportedly employed as a social worker by RBKC, and her mother, who accompanied her on what was allegedly a professional appointment —
but which quickly devolved into something more reminiscent of familial amateur hour than formal service delivery.
π A Scene Most Improper
On the date already detailed in prior correspondence, Ms. Silly arrived at my home with her mother in tow — not as a passive observer, but as an active and vocal participant.
During this profoundly inappropriate encounter:
Her mother engaged directly with me and my children, offering unsolicited, unvetted remarks ranging from disturbingly inappropriate to frankly intrusive;
No introduction was offered;
No rationale, credential, or explanation for her presence was provided.
What unfolded was not a safeguarding visit.
It was a staged improvisation, with my family conscripted as unwilling participants.
I did not consent to this woman’s presence.
I was not informed she would attend.
And I emphatically reject the notion that social worker home visits are now open to familial accompaniment at the whim of the assigned professional.
π Catalogue of Misconduct and Distress
Failure | Description |
---|---|
1. A Safeguarding Aberration | Inserting an unvetted, unqualified family member into a private safeguarding visit constitutes a profound safeguarding failure. |
2. Collapse of Professional Boundaries | The visit obliterated the distinction between professional conduct and casual familiarity, with trust and authority sacrificed in the process. |
3. Delegitimisation of the Process | Power imbalances were exacerbated, procedural integrity was annihilated, and I was left doubting whether this was professional social work at all. |
4. Lack of Response or Remedy | Despite raising these concerns, no meaningful investigation, explanation, or apology has been forthcoming — a silence both chilling and complicit. |
Safeguarding, it seems, has been replaced by amateur theatrics.
π©» Redress Demanded
Accordingly, I respectfully (though emphatically) request that RBKC:
Initiate a full and transparent investigation into the conduct of Ms. Sally Silly, including how and why her mother was permitted to attend a safeguarding visit;
Provide a formal written explanation detailing the decision-making failure that allowed this event to occur;
Confirm Ms. Silly’s registration status with Social Work England, and whether regulatory action has been initiated;
Issue a formal apology and written assurance that safeguarding visits will be treated with the professional gravity they warrant, not as casual family affairs.
π Final Observations
Social work is — or ought to be — a profession governed by ethics, boundaries, and trust.
This visit failed on all three counts.
That a social worker would arrive unannounced, uncredentialed, and unrepentant with her mother in tow would be laughable — were it not so gravely dangerous and profoundly unprofessional.
My children were left confused.
I was left shaken.
RBKC was left looking dangerously unserious.
This is not merely poor judgment.
It is a glaring indictment of a system increasingly incapable of distinguishing between governance and farce.
I expect a formal, substantive response without further delay.
Yours,
With all due formality and constitutional precision,
Polly
