  • God yes you can be a mum. I have a lovely grown up son and I am autistic and dyslexic.

    But it sounds like your friend has a few physical challenges that might make some aspects of care for her children difficult. That's where social services should help. Her kids need their mum's love even if some care tasks might be harder. I hope social services aren't the ones judging her.
