Nobody Should Believe Me · Inside the Child Welfare System with Dr. Anu Partap Part 1 · 23 Jul 2026 podcast

In the meantime, foster care, pediatrics, or just any physician, nurse practitioner, nurse, therapist, psychiatrist, whoever the medical professional is, our role while that child is in foster care is to help them recover from what's happened because we know that the circumstances for removal

scientifically mean that it has affected some aspect of your health and probably multiple domains of your health.

So let's help you get better.

Let's make sure that the people who are moving you from home to home or you have visits every week or the caregivers that are raising you are positioned to understand how you might be reacting as a child during this really unusual circumstance at a legal case.

You're growing up during a legal case.

Treat you, treat what's happened, mitigate the risks of the legal system itself, and then help you end up in a beautiful forever family.

was left alone in their home for several weeks with a five-year-old in charge of two younger siblings.

Why there's cockroaches coming out of your diaper bag and infesting their crib.

We can argue about why their younger sibling was carried around in a carrier, already passed away while you were still doing drugs.

We can debate and argue and spend all day on that.

But when we're done, let's get back to making sure your child heals.
