i shouldnt have bothered going, its all set up, the meeting with DR W and DR X lasted an hour and a half.....
male was turned completely around by DR W....... X has taken his diagnosis back in light of new evidence........
he made aprox 12 statements all in agreement with DR W and his accusations of harm from me, educationally, emotionally, socially, all in DR W handwriting of course.
DR X came to me later, stating the only strategy he could come up with, was to agree with DR W and have child Y removed from my care, as this ensures that my child will get the overdue attention and assessments he needs.....(THOSE ASSESSMENTS I HAVE FOUGHT SO HARD TO OBTAIN FOR OVER 2 YEARS AND HAVE BEEN DENIED) The other reason was obvious DR X was outnumbered
the judge has so far suggested 3 months in foster care as he has a free slot in november in which to review the situation.
in addition i am expected to coach the foster carer. surrounding parental strategies and re-address all the therapy issues i dealt with years ago, and accept non diagnosis.....contact will take place at a family centre, we will be supervised and assessed at all times. CAFCASS have recommended son go s into care. In court rest of week think Dr W, DR S and Social Worker, take stand tomorrow...

Barrister is very experienced, he sympathises, but insists in the light of the volume of evidence by different professionals i must make the best out of a situation. Luckily i resisted his first his first suggestion which was to
go with everything.....he has no real knowledge of my sons difficulties therefore not understanding the impact it has on a family and the impression it gives to others.........but thats just it, none of them know.......I really feel like debbie storey in the middle of my personal nightmare.........

Expert Witnesses are rarely challenged especially the judges golden boys, these are the few that stand as expert witnesses during family proceedings.....
i got the impression he has his favourites....and wont here a word against them.

but that in itself is a problem then isnt it , if parents cannot challenge these experts, for fear of infuriating the judge, risking their reaction or effect on there case......
Then can someone please tell me, at what point did i ever stand a chance ???
