I've read a few articles about a 29 year old woman from Arizona, whose birth name is Talia Warner but from what I can tell goes by 'Talulah Does The Hula' online. She is disabled to the point where she still requires a car seat and booster seat, she has told people online that she is non verbal (although she does speak sometimes), and is undoubtedly different from the rest of the world. There's footage online of her being taken care of by caregivers, taken to appointments by her mother, and the like, as well as countless videos and streams of her doing various things, from playing with toys to doing normal 'adult' things like going out to a bar. From what I can tell she perhaps has some form of autism and a developmental disorder, but she seems to get by alright with help from her mother and other caregivers, and has a decent following online (I'm seeing a lot of terms like 'simps' and 'enablers' being thrown around, but that's for another time.) <br><br>I initially thought this was a recent story, but it seems it happened back in 2019, when she gave birth to a seemingly neurotypical baby boy named Oliver. From what I can tell his actual birthdate is February 15th, 2019, but articles about the birth seem to have come out in July, talking about how the family were struggling to cope with the new addition and how the state was stepping in. <br><br>The articles from July 2019 are from multiple sources, from CNN to USA Today and many in between, and all state that the baby tested negative for any sort of developmental disorder and was seemingly 'normal'. I've seen some people online say that the baby was actually stillborn and never actually made it, but this isn't reflected in reports from 2019. My issue here is that there are some from 2023 discussing the child still, with pictures of her and the baby from as recent as December 2022. Seeing how a lot of the articles from 2019 were centered around the family struggling to cope, I'm wondering what became of the child. Did he get taken from them? Did she just send pictures to the media? <br><br>I'm perhaps just being paranoid, but the fact that every single mainstream media outlet was discussing this story five years ago and there's no real follow up on the child is strange. Even weirder is the fact that she still streams, and seems to get by alright, but there's no mention of the baby *anywhere*. In fact, from what I can tell she's never *mentioned* the baby, and neither has her mother nor any other family or caregivers.<br><br>Has the child been taken away from her? If so, why did they let her keep the baby for even a day? If the baby's non-verbal, being cared for by a non-verbal handicapped person and her aging mother isn't the best case scenario and it's insane that it was allowed for even a second. If the baby is neurotypical, isn't this a recipe for disaster? A severely handicapped woman and her elderly mother trying to care for a normal baby? The articles from 2019 all make it clear that they were expecting to get a lot of help from the state, and that the baby was taken from her initially before being returned, but then what? Tons of articles from 2019 leading up to the baby being returned, but then a complete radio silence on the topic, until random articles with pictures from 2022 and 2023, and she still seems to function as normal online, without any mention of a child.<br><br>If you have any more information on what happened to Oliver, if you know where he is now, or if you've seen anything about him, please let me know.<br><br><br><br>UPDATE: She actually talks about her son *a lot* during her streams, and is very open about the fact that he is not living with her, and hasn't been for *years*, and that he is living with a family and is doing well, and she is fully aware that she can't take care of him, and obviously it's a lot different from what I initially thought. From what I can tell he was only with her for two months before being taken away, although the initial articles I'd read said it was years before he was taken from her, but nevermind that.
