Hi everyone, today I’m going to talk about interesting article from “The Guardian” magazine, called: Drug addicts' children need protecting.This article is written by a judge, who usually work with drug-addicted mothers. These mothers commonly have many children, for example seven or eigth, even fourteen. This is not good situation, because the baby taken away. In a report of one mother says that when she goes out, she gets pregnant again for to combat the pain of having her son far away.
The Judge thinks that offering money for them is the best way forward, he thinks that we need to work with this drug-addicted parents, work with the family drugs and alcohol curt. All this for to stabilise parents and keep families together. But if they don’t want to participe in that, and they prefer to accept money for to sterilisation or contraception, and he prefer to sterilisation.
There is a controversial point: babies born to drug-addicted mother are often premature and need special and intensive care, they fight for life. Their first moment of them life consist in being weaned off the drugs that mothers took in the pregnancy. This is not a good way for to start a life, and judges must to do what they can to help parents off drugs and alcohol, but the jugdes also must to protect the right of these children.
The family drug and alcohol court has been shown great succes in helping more parents to come off drugs and alcohol, and keep their families together. But when is very hard, the court speeds up the care process and finds permanent, stable homes for the babies.
The judge think that they must help who can and will be helped, but not everyone is capable, perhaps the societa need to consider something different.
I think that is very important because the children-mothers care is work of our career. The midwifes recive everytime cases of drug-addicted mothers, so we need to help and improve this situation, because this situation affects the process of pregnancy on the fetus, it can have consequences for him. Therefore we are responsible to advise that mothers with drug problems to improve the health of the mother and the fetus and newborn future.
