I have 3 sisters. My oldest sister is actually my half-sister. My youngest sister has 2 sons from a horrible relationship. While she was in hospital in 2008 to rest up, the man's family accused her of suffering from postnatal depression when that wasn't exactly true. Anyway, at some point amid all of this ongoing mistreatment, her kid was taken away and placed with his grandparents, because the boy's dad carried out an act where he could not have the kid unsupervised. These grandparents used to work for social services and are now retired. Over the years, they've made up all this outrageous garbage about my sister, as well as my family.

My sister hasn't been allowed to see her eldest son in more than 5 years now and to be honest, it's like he isn't even a part of her life anymore. She had another kid to the same guy in 2010. My nephew has a medical problem where he isn't growing at the correct rate, so like his father had growing up, he needs hormone injections until he reaches 18 or whatever age it will cease.

Eventually, social workers got into the mix and it has been quite the ordeal ever since. It's a real confusing mess, so I cannot really explain all the ins and outs of what has occurred. My sister has had very little luck in the court and she even resorted to writing to the parliament for back-up. Unfortunately, she changed a lot of solicitors for various reasons. Her most recent lawyer is ill, so he cannot help her at the moment. My mother has hired her own lawyer.

My mother believes that my nephew has a form of dyspraxia going by how he struggles at school and has poor memory skills, but because he is with his father, it is hard to get the necessary tests carried out until she pressures the court to somehow do so, in order to prove that my sister having him removed from her care was wrongful. My sister only gets to see him once every 2 weeks, and was recently afforded an extra 30 minutes. If contact has to be delayed, then she has to wait another fortnight. Usually, the appointed safeguarder may just go on a holiday and not even update anybody of the situation, which is very annoying. And so on. However, the social workers want her contact to be nearer to where his dad resides, because they say the kid is tired from having to travel into Edinburgh and this is stuff they constantly just make up as times goes on. My mother thinks travelling out to this other location is too hectic because they'd have to get 2 buses and they wanted to meet in a garden centre, which is dumb because I know the place they are talking about, and it's more like a big shop with nothing of interest for children. Where he goes currently, there's other kids and it's like an activity centre. Kids prefer that.

The thing I don't get (and it baffles a lot of other people, too) is that this guy cannot have his oldest son overnight because of a stunt he pulled with having him unfastened in a car seat once, but he is allowed to have the other lad all of the time, yet he is younger than his brother. I'm not sure why that even makes sense. The courts do everything wrong nowadays.

I made the the mistake of sending a series of emails where I spouted a plethora of nonsense, because I believed they were lying about not being my workers any more, and to be honest, I don't think these women understood a thing regarding autism. Half of the time, when I sent messages to all of these people that I actually liked, it was apologetic style messages or me spewing about stuff similar to what you've seen me posting on here in the past, because I sent the original emails, tweets, letters or whatever it was, due to a general sense of anger and I felt in some cases that I tried to be quite reasonable, and also show regret over what was, to me at least, just a perceived minor misunderstanding that was blown out of proportion. But they were the total opposite. Unwilling to listen, or accept that I was just going through a period of depression over nagging issues. People fall out. It's life. So this just seems like a pile of dung.
