I had a quiet strong reaction on the feelings I get for how I'm treated as a #neurodivergent person by the #Finnish #childservices as a #parent.
I took some time but still in the end I have the same thoughts.
I'm supposed to mask my behavior so I'm not misunderstood? Am I a bad parent if I don't mask, am I a bad parent if I don't shut up if I have a problem with some of their actions?
It does feel that being different is a personal failure in #Finland, at least when it's the social services.

A high school reported Turning Point USA to child services after an event. This raises questions about the group's methods with young people.

A formal complaint has been made to child protective services after a Turning Point USA event at a high school. The exact reasons for the complaint are still being looked into. The group works with young people across the country.

This is #ParentalNeglect. I don't care who needs to hear this, if you withold TRIED, TRUE AND PROVEN #vaccination from your #children, then #ChildServices should get involved, because you are an #Unfit #Parent.
On a side note, this is what legitimizing people like #RFK gets you.

Yersterday I had a meeting with the #Finnish #ChildServices.
I was reminded again that for them keeping up with procedures
and schedules is more important than #childwelfare.
No appearance of a willingness to get it out of the nightmare that is #huostaanotto.
Please call your senators and representative to demand that they strongly resist Trump's actions against the people in need. Children, veterans and so many others may go hungry tonight and in the days to come due to this illegal act!

Funnily enough, I'm sharing a video about how bad #YouTube has gotten - in the form of a YouTube video.
When #iPad kids grew up they said that they had negative consequences for being raised on an iPad. Consider what a YouTube kid would say, or a #TikTok kid for that matter.
At the end of the day, if #parents don't moderate their kids intake, I think maybe #ChildServices should be involved - no joke.
Sabersparks will explain to you why.

In the last few months I have learned in #Finland you are not supposed to talk back to the #childservices, especially as a #foreigner.
No matter what they do, however unfair or unjust they behave dont talk back just do what they tell you.
They act solely on the law, but the law allows them to judge themselves how to act. Judge and judge in one.
I noticed as a foreigners you draw the short stick in any case because you are judged by their own values. What is ok in your culture
does not matter
I feel just because I'm #neurodivergent #adhd I'm assumed to be a bad parent.
Finnish #childservices can't take the effort to talk to me, to see behind my quirks.
Even as a person that has trouble reading social queues I feel like they have more issues with communication
than me. Quirks are seen as errors, questions to try understand situations I dont are seen as intend to do something wrong.
If I do something differently than told but still properly than Im criticized it's not done "correctly"
