Mothers with learning difficulties need more support - Brooke
May 11, 2006 9:39 AM
Responding to the Bristol University report Finding The Right Support?, published today, which calls for mothers with learning difficulties to be given more support to allow them to keep their children, Liberal Democrat children's Spokesperson, Annette Brooke MP said:
"This report is to be welcomed. Clearly, insufficient support is currently being given to parents with learning difficulties.
"There may be some circumstances where a child has to be taken away. However, mothers should be given more support to allow them to keep their children, as this is often in the best interests of the child.
"The Government should develop a national strategy for helping mothers in the future."
