Rejected petition: Improved support for birth families
Rejected on
When children are removed from their birth parents, it can often feel like the voices of those parents are pushed aside.
Birth parents should be supported, listened to, and treated with dignity. Wherever it is safe and in a child’s best interests, maintaining a meaningful relationship with children
Families need help, guidance, and a fair chance to rebuild—not to feel forgotten once decisions have been made. Children deserve stability, but they also deserve a system that recognises the importance of their identity, history, and connections.
