When removed, the child lived with her maternal grandmother in dirty conditions. The Department put her with a foster family, which was ultimately not able to handle her special needs, including a narrowed esophagus and delayed speech development. She was later placed with her father.<\/p>\n<p>The daughter did well in her placement with the father. Meanwhile, the mother did perform the tasks she was asked to perform by the Department. Accordingly, the Department no longer wanted to terminate her parental rights. The Department asked that the mother and father be named as joint managing conservators, with the father named as the parent who could designate the child&#8217;s primary residence. The Department recommended a standard visitation order.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcclure-lawgroup.com\/blog\/deviation-standard-possession-texas-mother-mental-health-problems\/#more-753\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent Texas appellate case, a mother appealed from a trial court order that limited her possession of\u00a0her daughter to once a month over one\u00a0year.
