Original uncertainty examples How can we best support pregnant women with learning disabilities and mothers and fathers with learning disabilities so as to prevent traumatic parent/child separations? ~  Are social workers good at supporting people with learning disabilities from minority ethnic communities? ~ One  area that is neglected is the parental duties of adults with a disability with responsibility banged back and forth between adult and children services. I would like to see how much neglecting this area is actually costing services in the end.
