I’ve been a social worker for 15 years, always with children but did take 4 years out working in a school. I’ve recently come back to social work and really not enjoying it. Something I have realised is I love working with adults (in order to makes changes for their children). I’ve been thinking for a while about transitioning to adult social work. Has anybody do this and can share their experience of:

1. Learning the legislation relevant to adults
2. All social work is stressful but is there better work life balance?
3. Is the stress more manageable than the stress in children’s?
   Just as a disclaimer, I don’t expect adults to be easier than children’s but just wondering if it’s more manageable.
