Second chance "family matters/Addiction is a disease"
The system CPS should not be allowed to keep family apart due to past life due to addiction if lifestyle has significantly changed for years/decades. Especially that have significant relationship, addiction isn't a choice.
Why is this important?
My grandchildren are caught up in the system due to my son's addiction. I'm not allowed to have them or even openly communicate, although we've always had an ongoing long term established relationship. Due to my past of addiction that created it's horrible havoc in my life and unfortunately my children's. I have over 2 decades of sobriety and recovery. I got my own children back and out of this broken system but many years later the same sadness affects our life with my grandchildren!! This is horrible and unhealthy for me and many others like me, but more than that the children who don't have a choice even when they speak up. Let's change laws to better lives with love not bureaucracy !!
