My name is Mary Hegwood in 28 years old and a mother of two kids to whom which the state says are no longer my kids and I  don't think that is fair for someone else to decide when. Ur capable of getting better and if you don't do so in their time  frame you  are no longer a parent  well I'm here to tell you that I have made mistakes and I have continued to make countless bad decisions  I am not. A perfect person and I admit that but a bad mom I am not I love my kids and. I have never intentionally harmed them in any way  I did make bad decisions and I regret being so blind. And if I could really have a chance over again. And could raise my children. The way that I feel is correct because that is my fundamentals rights as a parent and unless I'm harming them intentionally or something like that  dont terminate rights because of an addiction that you  are trying to put a time frame on nobody can do that  and yes I know the stability is bad for the child but only when u rip parents out and let them in and so on and so fourth I don't disagree about temporary rights or guardianship  over a child until they are able to get themselves together but dont take away the only reason  they have to start trying in the. First place if they dont get to see their kids any ways whatd the point?
