my twins, lakoda and raphaelle were also removed from hospital in 2017. dcp diddnt give us the chance . Jasper was removed with a removal notice 12, 1/2 hours after birth from the hospital, without any concerns of my parenting from the hospital. dcp came up from Berri ,riverland. to the Adelaide lyell mcewin hospital the next day, without any warning of them coming up their to remove jasper. again dcp diddnt give us the chance. and again we did nothing wrong, but our disability. All they said when they first attended on 2/6/21 at the hospital was, we hold concerns due to you having a mild intellectual learning disability.
– department for child protection has never given us as parents a chance to parent 24/7 , in the comfort of the home environment. over concerns of our Mild intellectual disability,- impacting on parenting capacity. We-haven’t been given the chance, to show that we could be capable, 24/7. in society we function quite well, live independently can do stuff independently that most people can do. as a parent/ person we are more than a disability. dcp need to take the time to get to know us as a person. And not define us by a minor disability. are not classified as disabled. also very aware of challenges that may Arise, therefore we are soo determined to have support around those areas of challenges to help support parenting. have got in place. councillor, once a fortnight, occupational therapist, via zoom chat weekly. developmental educator, via person fortnight. i know how to grab a phone and call a friend, family, developmental educator to talk through stuff with me if i do get stuck with things at home with my kid or do zoom chat, so they can see what’s happening at the time. are not afraid to reach out for it. all we need is support to have the kids..are very determined to be the best mother i can be to my kids, that sadly has never been provided the chance to fully parent in the comfort of my home environment. Always been under The gaze of dcp worker, taking notes down. in an office,/ park each time were trying to effectively bond with our kids. Which can be a cause of situational anxiety” in myself and trying Soo hard with my children can make me nervous in front of worker taking notes. in which they are using my heightened anxiety against me from parenting my baby son. My heightened anxiety is only behind their walls .which is not how we deserve to parent.. we deserve to parent in comfort. i have done everything asked of me by the department of child protection, still they are wanting to apply for a long term order over my baby Son- Jasper crispin. when there is support, there is a reunification service, Ac care onboard dcp referred me to her in late september. i keep a great clean, safe home environment, have my babys room all set up, since before his birth on 1/6/2021. im not reluctant to support at all. we as parents take care of all our daily personal care tasks, /domestic tasks. ourselves. |
