Such a shame for that boy! I just don't understand why he has been allowed to be put through all this tit, there is obviously social work involvement and if we can see what is going on surely they can aswell?! I don't know how things like this work and I understand about them having different needs but I just assumed if one child had been removed from her care they would at least be closely monitoring the child still at home. When I first started seeing her on TT I used to think fair play to her, she always had her kids and seemed to do great by them, sometimes her parenting style was questionable to me and how she spoke to them etc but we're all different I suppose and granted I probably missed alot of her lives but the more u watch the more u notice. She is neglectful and abusive, no other 2 ways about it and I hope she either wises up really soon and repairs her relationship with BOTH of her kids or her boy does and tells her to duck off. It's sad to see because you could always tell how much that wee boy adored her!
I don't understand it at all either. I haven't had much involvement from social work for my two, we had a tiny bit of involvement for my daughter but their advice was rubbish and it was as quick as they could get rid of me. They are super stretched the same as all the public services, not that thats an excuse, it isn't. She's been on lives where his social worker has turned up at her door etc.
He does adore her, you can see he just wants to be loved and wants attention and if he laughs at her stupid behaviour he gets attention. The things she says to him are horrible, like no wonder your Dad left. If I said that to my girl she would be really hurt. She knows he's an asshole but she'd still be hurt. She's blaming poor T instead of his Dad for leaving, and that's not on to do that to a child.
Eta - I do know why she gets away with it though, because she blames her autism, her attachment order, her alcoholism, her depression. I've worked with people with an autism diagnosis for 1/4 of my life and I don't know where the hell she got her diagnosis as I have never come across anyone like her in my life. She shows me no signs of autism at all.
