Hi,
I am an autistic adult who is a parent. Since having my daughter I went through a terrible time with social services who set me up to fail and removed my daughter from me because I have a diagnosis of autism. It took me two years to fight for my daughter back and through this time social services and Cafcass used the so called deficits of my autism to justify the removal and to stop the return of my daughter. Thankfully the judge saw through this and returned my daughter concluding in her judgment that I parent my daughter to a high standard.
I want to know how many my adults will autism who are parents have been through a similar situation. How many parents with ASD and other disabilities and or impairments are being targeted by social services and having their children removed? If you have experienced this please tell your story because the current system is outrageously discriminative against parents who have a disability and or impairment and I would like to raise awareness of the current failures within the current child protection system which is targeting parents with disabilities and or impairments so that change can happen.
I have massive sympathy for you, in that situation, but there is a lesson to be learned here.
Stay the hell away for "Authority"!
Be it government, police, social services, and recently the medical profession, they all see US as their property to do with as they see fit.
The act of "disengaging" is character building as it makes you more self reliant, and less plagued by prats. At least until they get us into a hot war with Russia as they seem hell bent on doing right now. You might THINK you NEED these people, because you have been trained and conditioned to all your life, via the idiot box in every "programme" they serve up, and of course it starts at school, where "compliance" is rewarded handsomely and independent thinking firmly discouraged.
These people who set themselves as authorities are not doing it because they like serving us...
Yes, I do meet the odd one who is trying to "serve and protect", but they are the tiny majority.
