Loving this sunny weather....... Puts me in the best of moods and allows me to interact with my children outside 💕

I love the rain..... Rain means family film, games or reading time 💕

So 12yo thinks its not his fault that he's in seclusion twice in 1 week and gets an hour's detention to top it all off. I got the usual it's not my fault and you won't believe that! I'm frustrated beyond belief!

@frogotter We've just been given a therapist so she's going in to do some training hopefully

@WordyRamblings I always sit with him and calm him. He's 12 and still likes sitting on my knee and being rocked. I am so thankful for your messages

@WordyRamblings It's a frustrated response. But at the same time I believe its due to something that's happened before and he's not been listened to or believed 🙁

@WordyRamblings I've printed out info and handed it over to his teacher (about trauma and ptsd)

[Talk About Adoption @Talk_Adoption]

@WordyRamblings Of course I believe him and I support him 100%

@hiomhair @akaalison1 @LittleMorbid13 @aitheantas I 100% do and always want to support them and will support them in finding birth mum too.

@LittleMorbid13 @akaalison1 I'm sorry she didn't believe u! A child should always be listened to!

[Talk About Adoption @Talk_Adoption]

@JenStevie1 @hiomhair @LittleMorbid13 @akaalison1 Excuse me! I'm not infertile! Again narrow mindedness!!

[Talk About Adoption @Talk_Adoption]

@akaalison1 @hiomhair @LittleMorbid13 @KZapponeTD In a portfolio!! That's horrific!! I can't belief they would even do that! Adopted children are still normal children. They should be treated like all other children and not made to feel shamed in any way! Your government needs to shake it up a bit!

@akaalison1 @hiomhair @LittleMorbid13 @aitheantas We traced birth parents for a friend of ours who is in their 70s now and he got put up for adoption by a church. The church is no longer in service so he can't get any paperwork.

[Talk About Adoption @Talk_Adoption]

@akaalison1 @hiomhair @LittleMorbid13 I don't agree with how they've handled that for u! You should have had the name of parents and a date of birth at least!

[Talk About Adoption @Talk_Adoption]

@akaalison1 @hiomhair @LittleMorbid13 My children have 2 sets of birth cirtificates on record. They have their original (so they can trace back) and they have another issued with their new surname. So they can see both. They have life books too, which gives them info about their birth, weight, mums name etc

@akaalison1 @hiomhair @LittleMorbid13 @aitheantas It's about time that all changed! See we had our human rights policy updated which involves Every child matters (this gives every child a voice)
