Queen of Hearts
After all of kt's "nonsense" & wm's "goofiness" I put my foot down. I spoke with each of them separately & told them I had taken enough from their "antics" for lack of a better term. kt with her sexual partners in the house; wm with his propensity for stealing. I let them know I expected them to straighten up & do the right thing. To stop & think of before they talked or walked.
Saying that, kt knows she can refuse treatment. wm knows it as well. The law is beyond reason as our my children.
Two weeks ago I had had enough not being able to leave kt here with someone so I could go see wm. In fact, I believe that kt gets all wound up anytime there is a hint of me visiting wm. Soooooo......I took kt & Integrated Listening Systems (ILS) worker with me. Let kt know she could sit in the car or she could address the elephant in the room & see her twin as a person, not a huge fear. (I let wm know the same thing earlier that week however didn't tell him I was coming with kt).
I cleared the visit with foster mum; brought an Integrated Listening Systems (ILS) worker along. It was wonderful to see my children together again. They talked music, movies, played basketball & we all went down to the park. All in all we all spent 2 hours together.
The aftermath for the tweedles has been good. Good reports all around.
For me, not so much. Some of those on wm's team are suggesting child endangerment.
I believe that wm's team especially keep forgetting I am the parent & legal guardian. I see no one taking full custody or making my children wards of the state. Nor do I see the team following the entire treatment plan which is to include supervised visits between kt & wm.
It was a wonderful time together with my children. It really was...both wonder when they can see each other again. Mental health CM is delighted (I also informed him ahead of time) & disappointed in both team's refusal to support this...i.e. any employee who is there when the tweedles see one another will be pulled from the case.
A meeting of both teams is being called - the plan filed with the county is to be followed; the teams will offer support. The plan is before the county as it is & the judge refuses to change the goal of family reunification with supervised visits between my twins.
Whether I'm charged with child endangerment remains to be seen .... I had a happy day - a few hours together as a whole family.
