He even claims to have slept on the floor in a child safety office for two nights. The Premier confirmed kids have been staying in government buildings, and the Child Safety Minister finally spoke out, admitting three teens aged 16 and 17 were housed there—though she insists they slept on new air mattresses, not floors. She cited migraines for her silence, while the opposition blasts the government for ignoring a commission’s 52 urgent recommendations. Insiders warn the current approach is too broad, forcing kids to couch surf out of desperation. This heartbreaking case exposes a failing system—and the real question remains: how do we actually fix it?
