      Part of me side eyed the mother, if she as mother to both was manipulated to help them Aaliyah back. Maybe they convinced her they’re ready & feel more responsible & best Aaliyah with her actual mum dad. I have a brother that got into certain “lifestyle”….has daughter. In fact because I was actively in her life since she was a baby, she called me dad when she started talking even tho corrected. No matter what trauma been through with, they still thinks & treats them with forgiving and naive….the mum likely want to do right to what the son asks

    This is so relateable for me! I’m taking guardianship of my 2 year old baby sister and have been raising her since she was 7 months old. My dad’s ex partner (her biological mom) is on crystal meth and an alcoholic. She has 2 other young kids she can’t take care of and is pregnant AGAIN with some next man’s baby. Instead of being grateful, she acts like I stole her child when all I have done is give her child a loving home and a future. If I had not stepped in, I wholeheartedly believe my baby sister would be dead right now. When we got her at 7 months, she had the worst diaper rash the Paediatrician had EVER seen and showed signs of neurodevelopmemtal delay due to lack of stimulation, because the woman (can’t even call her a mother) would lock her away in a room all day with no attention. She would have bruises and a swollen face that this woman could not explain. Today, she’s a happy, healthy cheerful toddler and mark my words, I know God’s got me and I’m going to give her the best life ever!

      Agree - In my opinion - ‘Gina’ needs a family support worker to help with setting a routine with the kids and doing tasks around the home. She needs encouragement and guidance. On a positive note, Gina has a spacious home with great natural light. Dear Gina - instead of using the cleaner on the side of the toilet, maybe try Harpic (I use the Black one - does wonders for me 👌🏾 Read the instructions and then see how it works for you (if it does). There are many products out there. Also your family need to take responsibility, show consistency and stability for the baby - including Chy. In terms of your driving - have you tried short term insurance (just to give you time to find suitable insurance)? On a positive note, also glad you went to Jamaica and spent time with your dad!

      Easier said than done. A guardianship works when the parents are deemed incapable of being parents. However things change, in a way Daina is acting the same way a foster parent is if no biological family members are available. It’s understood that the legal parents can have the child back when they are better from whatever issues they have. Of course things can get worse, but you know what? A messy and dirty house will not prevent a parent from keeping their child. Sounds good in theory to adopt but not realistic.

    I understand when u said at first, your bro was dead to you. The brother should be held as much accountable as the baby mother. He full well knew what he was doing and sneakily did it while your mum went out. He obviously still has love for his bm.
    Unfortunately u can't make the bm fix up, but your family should assertively motivate your bro to fix up and get his life sorted.. stop smoking, go college and learn a skill, get a stable job etc.. as what's stopping him from having custody of his OWN children too !? He should be going above and beyond for his children, like you're having to step in and do. You definitely need to set expectations, boundaries and rules with him, he seems to have life too comfortable, with least responsibility, coming and going as he pleases, but probably doesn’t contribute nothing. Sometimes tough love has to be placed above our feelings for our loved ones. Hope it all works out 🤗

    Thanks Diana for sharing this. Im actually a social work student but grew up in care and I agree that there definitely needs to be some changes within the system aswell as policy and procedures, like your ‘Next of Kin’ example, if guardian not present. It’s really unfortunate what took place, however Aaliyah is sooo blessed to have such a committed, loving and supportive aunty💗💗💗

    D all I can say is you're such a good well rounded person and I just know God has so much good coming your way. Just keep up the self improvement and don't lose yourself over people who can show themselves all on their own. Love and Blessings

    Sounds Like Its Time For An Attorney Or Lawyer And Draft Up A Permanent Claim To Your Niece Or File For Full Legal Custody To Cut Through The Chaos And Drama So You Can Get On With Your Life Peace And Blessings And Future Success On Your Endeavors 💙🙏🏾💞🤗
