In re Lilian F. CA1/3
In November 2018, the Santa Clara Social Services Agency filed petitions on behalf of mother’s children alleging dependency jurisdiction under section 300, subdivision (b)(1) [failure to protect from risk of harm], 300, subdivision (c) [serious emotional damage], and 300, subdivision (g) [no provision for support]. According to the petition allegations, mother left her three older children alone for two days while she was at the hospital giving birth to Rosie. Following Rosie’s birth, mother was placed under an emergency psychiatric hold due to active psychosis, and the children were taken into protective custody. The agency alleged mother had untreated mental health issues since at least 2006, with symptoms that include delusions and paranoia, which were negatively impacting her children, who were homeschooled by mother, isolated from family and community, and adopted many of mother’s bizarre ideas.
