- Title
Having a named contact for my children is crucial: A mother explains why she believes that every person with a learning disability should have a go-to advocate in social services.
- Abstract
My son and daughter have moderate learning disabilities and depend on myself and their dad. There are no other siblings. When I wake in the night, tuned in to the slightest of noises that could signal my son is experiencing a seizure, I find myself wondering who will be there to watch over him, and his sister, when we are no longer here?
