Mother of abandoned children being told to focus on her mental health
The mother accused of abandoning her children was told by a judge to focus on her mental health while in court on Monday morning.

Her attorney claims Huff suffers from PTSD and depression, stemming from an incident involving the children's father.
"One of the main concerns this court has is that she contact her mental health provider and make sure that she's stable. She does not have custody of her children. Her children are now being raised by her grandparents," said Emily Detoto, Huff's attorney. "So right now, our goal is to just get her in a good mental place so she can eventually be reunited with her children."
