I totally relate to this, as I have been kinship carer and it as though departments think that because they are with family that everything is ok and you don't need respite. It's total crap. Sometimes not even family help out because It's easier to turn a blind eye and make out there is no problem. DHHS need to do more! If they don't want these placements to break down. Sending strength and Love your way, cause it ain't easy.
