Protecting our Children, Part 2

[Lilka]

Thought I'd start a new thread because the other one was so big

Anyone else going to be watching?

The other woman looks so upset. It's heartbreaking but that little boy will be far far better off elsewhere.

They shouldnt have banned her from Sean and boozing.

realistically stopping the drink was enough of a challenge,.

I know they can both trigger each others drinking, but if shes drawn to go and see him which she obviously was, then shes failed in her agreement, so may as well get pissed?

She's got years left to have more children, maybe losing another one doesn't mean that much?

I'm no fan of social services normally but no one can say they haven't tried in this case. So so sad

Am so upset but not surprised,they just cannot change I had a case almost identical to this,I really thought i couls be the one who changed it all.I failed

kayano I dont think she is blase. I think she has low expections of how her life will turn out.

Its very sad but the baby has to come first. However sorry I feel for her.

either seeing sean or drinking was not safe for the baby so had to be both

It's all so frustrating.

Really liking the SW and Elaine.

The mum does not seem to upset after being told her she will be separated :( the FC seems more upset/

Oh how could she leave him starving hungry while she drank :(

Sad at how well she had done. Had hoped this was against all odds

I agree Mrsdevere

Elaine is lovely.

You didn't fail ledkr, people will only change if they really want to.

But they had no choice, he is none to be volient and agressive and previously they had skipped off and live in a tent when she was pregnant. He was considered to be controling man who she wouldnt seek help when he was around. Very sad :(

Amber it was 2 things she was told not to do and it wasn't like she fell off the wagon alone, she had her baby with her and she was sober when she took that decision.

She put drinking with Sean over feeding the little man!

mollie she is a human being. I doubt losing another child would be any easier for her than anyone else.
Having another baby wont replace the ones she has lost.

I am really suprised you would think that.

and this is when i mean the contraception should come in. Otherwise she will get preg again with sean and the whole thing will happen again.

I think the mum is more in shock than anything. Its almost like she does not really knwo whats going on

They are not yet seperated though are they? Elaine is just now babies primary carer?

Poor SW & FC - they feel like they failed but they did so much :(

:( So sad :(

just so sad. How can they keep her away from him :( why do they allow him to keep in touch with the baby, sorry but with his history of violence and drink abuse (they said domestic violence) there sould be no .
