A SHEFFIELD mum-of-seven is set to win back her teenage son from the care system following a three-year campaign after she made "remarkable" efforts to improve her parenting skills, a court heard.
The 13-year-old was earmarked for fostering due to concerns about his mother’s capacity to look after him and alleged neglect he suffered, London’s Civil Appeal Court was told.

In August 2006 a judge made a long-term fostering placement order.

The mum appeared at the Civil Appeal Court in a final bid to have the order revoked.

Lord Justice Wall stopped the case after a dramatic change in her local authority’s stance.

He said she had made “remarkable” efforts to improve her parenting skills and it was also “very clear” her son wishes to live with her.
