Wouldn't it be up to the Social Services Dept. to "prove" that bf is
worsening the problems she already faces, rather than put you in an
impossible position of "advising" both parties? Why don't they ASK the
mother how she is feeling? The breastfed baby may very well be the BRIGHT
SPOT in that mom's life.
