AB463-ASA1, s. 13 12Section 13. 48.01 (1) (a) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB463-ASA1,8,213 48.01 (1) (a) While recognizing that the paramount goal of this chapter is to

15appropriate, by strengthening family life through assisting parents and the
16expectant mothers of unborn children
, whenever appropriate, in fulfilling their
17parental responsibilities as parents or expectant mothers. The courts and agencies
18responsible for child welfare should assist parents and the expectant mothers of
19unborn children
in changing any circumstances in the home which might harm the
20child or unborn child, which may require the child to be placed outside the home or
21which may require the expectant mother to be taken into custody
. The courts should
22recognize that they have the authority, in appropriate cases, not to reunite a child
23with his or her family. The courts and agencies responsible for child welfare should
24also recognize that instability and impermanence in family relationships are
25contrary to the welfare of children and should therefore recognize the importance of

1eliminating the need for children to wait unreasonable periods of time for their
2parents to correct the conditions that prevent their return to the family.

7self-control of their expectant mothers in the use of alcohol beverages, controlled
8substances or controlled substance analogs, exhibited to a severe degree. It is further
9recognized that, when an expectant mother of an unborn child suffers from a
10habitual lack of self-control in the use of alcohol beverages, controlled substances or
11controlled substance analogs, exhibited to a severe degree, in order to ensure that the
12needs of the unborn child, as described in this paragraph, are provided for, the court
13may determine that it is in the best interests of the unborn child for the expectant
14mother to be ordered to receive treatment, including inpatient treatment, for that
15habitual lack of self-control, consistent with any applicable law relating to the rights
16of the expectant mother.
AB463-ASA1, s. 15 17Section 15. 48.01 (1) (bm) of the statutes is created to read:

24and treatment approaches, including collaborative community efforts and the use of
25community-based programs, as significant strategies in planning and

1implementing legislative, executive and local government policies and programs
2relating to children and their families and substitute families and to unborn children
3and their expectant mothers
.

6under this chapter to the extent that this is consistent with protection of children,
7unborn children
and the public safety.
AB463-ASA1, s. 18 8Section 18. 48.02 (1) (am) of the statutes is created to read:
AB463-ASA1,9,139 48.02 (1) (am) When used in referring to an unborn child, serious physical harm
10inflicted on the unborn child, and the risk of serious physical harm to the child when
11born, caused by the habitual lack of self-control of the expectant mother of the
12unborn child in the use of alcohol beverages, controlled substances or controlled
13substance analogs, exhibited to a severe degree.
AB463-ASA1, s. 19 14Section 19. 48.02 (17m) of the statutes is amended to read:

19provided to the expectant mother of an unborn child to protect the physical health
20of the unborn child and of the child when born from the harmful effects resulting from
21the habitual lack of self-control of the expectant mother in the use of alcohol,
22controlled substances or controlled substance analogs, exhibited to a severe degree.
