I've never understood her using continuing care for when she's working.. I know where I'm from it's to be used for the carer to have respite... For example going to bed to sleep, reading a book watch a film, go see your friend for a coffee, go shopping....
However shes used it so she can work... And she's also been out drinking at night when she has the carers.
Now where I live your not allowed to use them for those two reasons. You have to be reachable in case they need you and.. Continuing care isn't always the same carer. In my area there's about 12 of them and they all do shift work so you could have a different one each day some times.
Carers are for you to REST so you can be your best and on your game for when you don't have carers. Not to go out to do a 12 hour shift working...
Or going out on lash where if there was a problem she wouldn't be contactable...
But that's just my experience of it.
In my eyes she uses continuing care as child care. Continuing care isnt childcare. It isn't a sit in nanny. They are trained on tracheostomys, suctioning, seizures, oxygen... (non of the things her son has).
In my eyes she's always abused something others have because they really do need that time to have for themselves not using it as child care.
Think she's also referred to it a few times as childcare.
I don't think she's a terrible mother, I just feel her choices she's made are questionable. In my eyes she puts herself first every single time. She loves that little boy there is not question about that however I firmly feel her situation with her son doesn't tie in with how she'd dreamt it would be. The easyness of bunging a pushchair in back of car, feeding him when off on her holidays (she's already said how easy it would be just being able to buy him some crisps to eat when out and about to feed him.... Think she thinks he can survive on just packets of crisps

)
The equipment she does have we hardly ever see her use. Even down to carrying him on her hip rather than be in his wheelchair.
The merc.... There are SEN parents who drive big WAVS wheelchair accessible wheelchairs. Kaytee... Do you think they really want to drive those huge vehicles? Being limited to where you can park, having to onload and offload a wheelchair, clamping it in etc but they do it because they are one greatful they are provided with transport for their child... And two it's safer.. And easier for them. I also don't see many of those drivers pay extra for an all singing all dancing wav... They can afford the basic one.
Again... Its not about her sons needs... But her own. She tried justifying the merc by saying her son absolutely loved the sun roof.
The
bleeping sun roof

Nearly every car has one of them kaytee you didn't need to spend your sons fundraising money for that.
It's all about her. She's had a taste of the high life and she wants it. That's her goal. Wether that's through rich boyfriends.... Or her instagram platform. It's not about her son because if it was she'd be acting differently with how that money is spent, the choices she's made and not trying so hard to be the best at everything. Your goal should be the best mother not the best Jack of all trades...
