YES CHALLENGE THEM ALL THE WAY, 

MAKE SURE THAT YOUR CHILD WHO IS GILLICK  is invited to all Child Protection Case Conferences, LAC Reviews,

Children in need meetings.

All LA have a mandatory obligation to inform all Gillick Children about date and time of such meetings, but in most cases this does not happen, they should receive a letter in writing about such meetings,and should be encouraged to attend with an Advocate.
