The authorities are in a bad position here. Basically there is only one tool the government has at its disposal. No. Make that two. They can take the kid away. They can threaten to take the kid away.

As a parent, I'm not sure I'd ever voluntarily allow a social worker to enter my house or talk to my kids. The best scenario would be that they leave and nothing comes of it. The worst is they take your kid from you. Nothing good can come from letting a social worker into your life. Not that they don't mean well.
