Any advice would help! I can not tell if it is simply her cheeks against the pads or it is not adjusted correctly..car seat base is leveled but seems like her head is super high. Breathing seems fine, she is responsive and she is staying awake, just a nervous FTM. 🥺
Just wanted to send you all a thank you for all that you do! I know school has started back up in most states so intakes have likely increased in your area. I know thanks can be rare in the field so it is nice to have others here that can relate to the stressful days and keep each other sane (for the most part)
Feel free to leave any advice below for new case managers or if times have been tough and you just need to vent, go right ahead.
Worker from Georgia here! 🍑
I have seen an increase of cases involving abandonment of children (mainly teenagers) and many of them are diagnosed with disorders such as autism, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and ODD. Many of these parents are calling in on themselves and demanding that we take the child.
I am curious how other counties are approaching these cases and if this is becoming more common in your area as well.
