Where I was going with the final train of thought is that it goes back to the point Ms Connolly made about going through the court system yet again. When the actors can leave the pitch and say it has nothing to do with them anymore, that creates the imbalance of the required wrap-around support Dr. Forde referred to. If all actors do not stay on the pitch until we get to the end of the process, it leaves a very imbalanced support for the family or the individual, regardless of age.
