Re: drink
@eylah i dislike managment coz they throw false accusation, and tell other carers to leave wen they r on support. they report me for silly things which i didnt do. they also reverse situations.
im gdgd yesyes. i wake up thinking
hi @ellie2000 . im so sry to hear abt how management are treating you. they have 0 right to throw accusations at you when you’ve done nothing wrong. im not sure how it works but have you got a safe adult who you can talk to abt how they’re treating you? i know in the past they’ve spoken to you like rubbish and was wondering bc this isn’t ok. im here for you ellie.

Re: Anybody want to vent or chat about anything? (Triggering stuff edition) w/c 15.09.25
To be honest, I am not sure what to do about something, I mean I have 2 options, I personally want to go with my first option but it will take ages but I am not willing to let the kid go into the system.
Re: Anybody want to vent or chat about anything? (Triggering stuff edition) w/c 15.09.25
I will try explain it here,
i know this child personally, and well basically they have been in hospitalfor some investigatios and testing, and turns out they have a form of cancer, this child has basically no family, i am the closest to family that this kid knows, he doesn't at all deserve to be put into the system and he deserves so much care and support as he is only 2 years old which is why i am going to try my best to get custody of him.
Re: Anybody want to vent or chat about anything? (Triggering stuff edition) w/c 15.09.25
I am getting so agitated, I can't be dealing with this with everything else going on.
I know it isn't the kids fault, I am probably putting this extra work onto myself but there is just no way I am letting a child that young go into the system, they deserve so much more than that.

It is literally one thing after another in my life right now.
There is never a chance for a break from anything, It's fine but gosh it really does get tricky at times. I can't keep doing everything at once. I have so much to do, and so much to sort out, as well as living with stuff that has already happened.
I am still fighting to sort out my fiancé's funeral, I am going to speak to someone in person on Monday as that's the only free time I have right now to be able to get the train down.
But at the same time, I have this 2 year old child I am trying to sort something out for, I am not letting this kid go into the system, my only other option is to basically spend any little time I can find so I can fight to get parental rights so the kid can live with me, I know it is going to be an incredibly difficult battle and it's one of the last things that I need right now.
