“It should also be noted that throughout the 2 years in care Campbell was somewhat emotionally deprived, was not managed consistently, and was confused, however he was not abused.” Ms Lindfield recommended that Campbell not be placed with this couple on a long-term basis. This period has included a separation and reconciliation, ongoing difficulties with Abby resulting in a subsequent breakdown of her placement, a large wedding and honeymoon, fertility treatment and preparation for gender transformation for, as well as a current house move. “Overall, impressed as a young couple who have had quite a turbulent period through the course of Campbell’s placement. The detail about Campbell’s removal fromThe Lesbian Parents is limited to:
In the aforementioned court papers regarding Campbell’s Mom’s custody case, Campbell’s prior custody situations are described. Court documents reveal that Abby was removed for her own behavior problems (unsurprising considering the horrific abuse she suffered all her life), unrelated to the couple’s care-taking skills or gender theories. “The placement did not work out for Abby,” says The Herald-Sun. So, after being removed from The Birth Parents, Campbell and Abby were initially placed with The Lesbian Parents (although, as the news delightfully reveals, “o ne of the women was preparing for a sex change to become a man at the time,” so is that really a same-sex couple? Because I feel like it isn’t ). There is evidence of food-hoarding, forcing children to eat vomit, and hair-pulling.”
The environment of abuse was characterised by an excessively rigid disciplinary regime, involving shouting, yelling and unsparing physical punishment including face-slapping, kicking, biting and spanking on the bare bottom callous and cruel force-feeding long and uncompromising periods of ‘time-out’ and episodes of public humiliation, including sending children to school in pyjamas. Actually, they’d been living in the most horrifying home to ever house children in the history of the housing. The children had been living in an abusive home with The Birth Parents. Apparently The Daily Telegraph found something in those documents about The Lesbian Parents that I myself could not find from reading every word, which is the aforementioned tale about the gender-bending Facebook picture.īut first, the verified facts! Campbell and his seven siblings were put in foster care in 2006, and Campbell and his 12-year-old sister, Abby, were placed together. Everyone involved has moved on to different things, and the only reason this situation is attracting attention at all is because Campbell’s Birth Parents recently applied to regain custody of their son and, in doing so, dredged up all the old records of their past court visits. “Campbell has blossomed in their care and this is very evident in his happy, expressive and confident presentation.” Case closed, right? His New Parents have been an excellent match and are currently in the process of adopting Campbell. The six-year-old boy, named “Campbell” in court records, was taken away from the The Monster Lesban Parents and placed with new caretakers on May 1, 2009.
Why? Because this whole shebang (allegedly) - which barely makes sense/seems real to begin with - happened in 2009.
