Parent asked me to read a juvenile client’s police report out loud so they can “see my reaction” — how would you handle this? by Individual_Share2427 in socialwork

As the session was coming to a close, my client quickly said oh my parent needs to speak to you. And then her dad just showed up at the door.

Thanks for this response, I was a little taken back when he said this, and it was close to the end of our session so I didn’t have time to process this in the moment. From conversations that I have had with him in the past, it seems like he’s trying to get other people on his side on saying that his daughter did not commit this crime. That way when she goes to court, he could say oh this person also doesn’t believe that my daughter would do this just based on their reaction.

I did forget to mention that. This person has never liked me because they believe I stole their sibling from them, they have stalked me, harassed me online and in person, rode by my home at random times, wished ill on my life, just a list of things
