e.w.o.

Is it better to try and speak with the E.W.O first or wait for them to make contact?

Re: e.w.o.

Hi - that is a difficult one as it depends on your EWO. I did contact mine as i needed help and advise and that worked for me ( in the end ) but some EWO's aren't so good. The advise i was given was that if you work with them then they are more happy to help you. If it came to a legal situation and you have contacted them for help i am sure they would find it very difficult to try and prosecute.
Hope this helps

Thanks Sarah, it's just wanting to know the right way to go about things so that I don't let my son down.

p.s. Although my postings are short there is a pressure cooker in me bubbling away at the minute ,just not ready yet .....trying to get things semi clear in my own head .

Re: e.w.o.

Lindy - i totally understand we all do. As i said to Lisa and anyone if you ever want to chat i am more than happy to give you my number. You are not letting your son down as we are dealing with an unknown quantity here, there is no right and wrong we can only do our best

Take care
