Section 95 of the Youth Protection Act _______________________________________________________________________ WARNING : The Youth Protection Act forbids the publishing or broadcasting of information allowing for a child or the child’s parents to be identified.

CONTEXT AND ANALYSIS [ 3 ] The child has remained in a foster family . He evolves very well, attends school and maintains good grades. He is polite, respectful and socially skilled. The child wishes to remain entrusted to this foster family. [ 4 ] He’s had regular and fulfilling contacts with his mother. The latter benefits from a follow-up for addiction issues. [ 5 ] As for the contacts with his father, it is reported that the father is irregular because of self-organizing issues to which he is not getting help for.

[ 6 ] Relationship between the parents is still conflictual and both of them are able to admit that the child’s needs are adequately met in his foster family. [ 7 ] It is therefore this Tribunal’s opinion that the security and the development of the child is still in danger and that the measures sought by the Director are appropriate in this case.
