Bath tub, feeding area, juices caught in a flexi bin. Bin then emptied in to buckets by scooping first with an ice cream container, a strainer and cheese cloth and then when able to lift the bin, then full pour there after. Buckets are taken to a sheltered area for transferring to container to fill bottles.

I wondered and did ask of ways to lessen the work, with little feedback but what was the norm and as much as I dont mind the work, surely there could be a way to make some sort of siphoning system, that could also be of use from the buckets to a water container with tap for bottle filling, with a filter or straining system attachment? I feel like theres an easier way to do this.

Thanks

What are the legalities behind being an Interim Secretary/Treasurer. I was happy to help in the pursuit of land and the future it could bring for the whenua and our family and now not so certain as to my abilities to do so.

Have been since September 2025.

My dad and uncle who live in Australia have interests in consolidating shares of land and forming a trust for future generations, my uncle does the research and then relays what im to do here in NZ, however the land is in a state of irreparable family issues between all landowners and while im in NZ, the extent of work, carries deeper generational traumas and Im realizing that this will be a lot to carry.

5 siblings, 2 in Aus, 1 in cognitive imbalance and living up North, 1 has not engaged for the past 20 plus years, and 1 found the 2 in Aus disrespectful in this situation so wrote to leave as the secretary. All elders mid 60s to mid 70s.

Me and my niece have a care arrangement with OT for my 3 grandchildren. I have the youngest of the 3, shes 20 months, my neice the older 2, ages 4 and 3.

Multiple hui a whānau for the past 4 years, neice is a newcomer, has had older children for 3 weeks. Consistent DV and child harm, OT involvement of maybe 4 OT workers, over the past 4 years, children placed in care with different family members, myself and a neice, the final spot?? All plans, always break down, support services upon support services. Parents playing cat and mouse with one another. Hui a whanau on its way next week. What advice could any legal or experienced OT or whānau also here have for me to navigate another way forward. At this point I'm feeling like I'm controlled by puppet masters!!! And I dont want my neice to have to go through the same things, And the kids have no solid foundation!!! Concerned how we can move forward when the parents can't.....
