Jesus Alana … whoever listen to this woman. The way she speaks is enough for anyone to not listen to her.
FOSTER mother is NOT the mother.

It’s REALLY abusive for the foster mother to describe herself as the mother. William has ONE mother. Who is as important and as grieving as the bleating and controlling FOSTER female. IF people “forget” William it is NOT up to the foster female to manipulate and complain to ensure William is not “forgotten”. That is a cognitive distortion by her. The case can be solved and the perp found. But… the mother is the mother. The grandmother is the grandmother. Foster females are NOT mothers. It is abuse to the grieving mother to usurp her like this and allow the females to do that in this podcast. Have some respect for the shattering grief of the biological family.
Sensational
