It will never not be bizarre for an LA to rely on a parent being care experienced, as threshold in proceedings where they are seeking to take children into care. 😑
Just read ‘My Darling Daughter’ by JP Delaney. Authors note includes this poignant quote from Lord Wilson:-
Happy Friday! My publisher has two (2) #GIRLS proofs left and they’re letting me do a giveaway here & on Instagram ☀️ If you’d like one retweet this post by midnight Sunday and the lovely @Charlo_Murs will post them out to the winners 🌼🥰 #Giveaway
So precious yet heartbreaking to see this as an #adoptee, 'cause we were robbed of this. As a 34 y/o I still wake up sometimes feeling like this baby w/o my mom to soothe me. I'm one of the blessed few who found her mom, which is healing, but my heart aches for those who haven't.

It's important to celebrate Scotland's culture and creativity - but 75% of film and TV freelancers were out of work throughout 2023, talented people are leaving the industry in droves, the industry is in proper crisis - we need to change that, it can't always be boom and bust

I think we need a Scottish Review and Enquiry into adoption in Scotland.

If an adoptee chooses to pursue reunion, it will be one of the greatest challenges of their lives. They don’t need everyone thinking it will be just hugs and kisses when it could be a lifetime of heartbreak. We don't need your excitement; we need your support. #adopteevoices
#MothersDay is a strange one: thinking of those who wanted to have children but couldn’t, who had miscarriages or a baby or child die, whose mothers are gone, & those who don’t have a good or any relationship with their mum.
Really important article shedding light on the inadequacy of perinatal healthcare for women at risk of social care involvement. National guidelines need to be updated to inform better support for these women.

Mary Magdalene’s besties in the group chat:
“Most people will lose their mother once. But if you’re adopted, like me, you’ll face at least three mother losses—when you are surrendered and then when your birth mother and your adoptive mother die.” #MotherLoss #MaternalDeprivation verywellmind.com/layered-trauma…

Why do we as a society think that someone is going to come out of this cell a better person?

If you are feeling sad and hopeless that is completely understandable, but it's also a luxury we can't afford right now. Here's a list of some great organisations helping on the ground, just as a handy guide:
The idea that any #adoptee would "force" their way into a bio family member's life is just so ridiculous to me. I am literally terrified of rejection of any flavor, and utterly conflict-avoidant! So no worries for any of my bio fam out there. Couldn't be me!
“Why do you need to know who your parents are?” I’m asked. As if I needed a reason. As if it were ever anyone’s business to take this from me in the first place. People who interrogate adoptees like this think they are being philosophical, but theirs is the taunt of the bully.
The UK doesn’t need baby boxes. What we need is greater support for families in crisis so that mothers don’t feel the only thing they can do is abandon their child. #AdopteeVoices #AdopteeRights

Thank you @Matineegirl for this stunner of a review in this month’s @PrimaMag 🤩 #Girls
Please, I want to descend these steps in a hail of Sobrani smoke, holding something pink & lethal in a martini glass, wearing a hostess dress with sleeves big enough to shelter a Shetland pony & make an acidic toast that turns tearful & ends in screaming at my guests to get out
Interior Design Magazine, March 1963
Just signed 300 copies of Girls for independent bookshops ☀️🥰🥲✨ sometimes can’t believe this is my life
@SuChantry @BBCRadio4 @AdultAdopteeMov Well done Su, this was a tough one but has resonated with a lot of people - lovely to speak with you
@SuChantry @sianwilliams100 @BBCRadio4 @AdultAdopteeMov I listened and so much of it related to me - I wasn’t adopted but raised in care system - black dad white mum in deepest Hampshire - my mum had no support & did what she did - my dad tried to get me back but dads were not considered. Thank you for sharing your story - appreciated
Today I get to talk with @sianwilliams100 @BBCRadio4 #lifechanging about the trauma caused by my forced adoption in 1968 . This beautiful woman - my birth mum Kay did nothing wrong , society thought otherwise . Thanks @AdultAdopteeMov for support from my “fog”
One of the worst things about human life is that every 18 months you have to call Sky and pretend that you're going to leave them until they find a magical offer which halves your bill which apparently didn't exist when you first rang
I do not like that the term "anti-psychiatry" encompasses a range of viewpoints that range from "entirely reasonable distrust and critique" to "denial of mental illness" and even just straight-up Scientology.

IMPORTANT public speaking engagement this morning: talking with a circle of pre-schoolers about being a Dr in psychiatry. They were SO curious, asked GREAT questions, told me ++ about their ailments. Reminded me we all *really want to be heard*. Then we read this beauty:
Voyager 1 has reached 14.528 billion miles away. The inner edge of the Oort cloud is 12 trillion miles away. 2 light years! It's only 1/827th of the way to the edge of Solar influence.
They don’t make ‘em like they used to

I left a PIP Tribunal crying in humiliation. I hadn’t cried when my parents died,or when I was told the damage a tumour inflicted on my spine would be life changing. Started a fresh claim and was awarded highest rate.The process is cruel and designed to be so. #RishiSunak
I took my kids out to lunch and was scooping some leftover nachos into a to-go box and my younger kid said “Eww” and I said “it’s ok if it’s nacho thing” and he did something I rarely see. He smiled at me
@Shrink_at_Large PIP can be awarded regardless of if the person is working or not. It's designed to cover additional costs that occur because of a disability. I was awarded it while I was in employment and retain it while in University. So it's bs attacking it as a reason people aren't working
If you are on PIP: nothing will change in this term. The tories are playing 'dare' with labour to try to win the election after. But it is CRUCIAL its torn down straight away as allowing it said is enough to shift Labour's position even more neoliberal.
PIP has nothing to do with employment. PIP is for moderate to severe disability and it is v difficult to qualify for. It is not something one can blag. I research this. Sunak's idea people can go off PIP with treatment is wild and dangerous. It is disability denial,no less.
