A Maple Ridge mother has been restricted to supervised visits with her son, after allegations of her giving him 害羞草研究所渦rine therapy害羞草研究所� came to light.

B.C. Supreme Court for supervised parenting access Wednesday, to the mother of an eight-year-old after the child害羞草研究所檚 father alleged that the mother practised 害羞草研究所渦rine therapy害羞草研究所�, which is an old practice of drinking one害羞草研究所檚 own urine and massaging it into one害羞草研究所檚 skin, on the child.

The couple, referred to as A.G., 41 years, and C.A.G., 47 years, in the court proceedings, lived in Maple Ridge from 2009 until 2020, before separating. In 2020, according to the father, the mother who had been diagnosed with cancer, took her son to Vancouver Island while getting her treatment, without his consent. The family is now back in their family home in Maple Ridge, albeit continuing to be separated.

Later in April this year, the son told his father that he had a secret to share, and asked him not to tell his mother. He then told his father that his mother had asked him to pee in a jar and then put the pee into his fruit smoothie. He also said his mother drank her own urine.

The father approached his family doctor looking for advice on how to proceed. The doctor wrote back saying the Ministry of Child and Family Development would be in touch. The child also spoke with the doctor and repeated the same allegations against his mother.

The father notified the mother害羞草研究所檚 lawyers that he would no longer allow unsupervised visits, and asked for the urine therapy to be stopped immediately.

The mother denied ever using urine therapy on the child. She agreed that she had given the child a jar to pee in, to monitor his lymphatic system, a well-known way to check if his kidneys were filtering, she said.
