I was going to comment on the 'fairness' of your other comment about it being ignored, but don't know enough about the case really.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

Obviously it is more heart breaking because this case is more near to home however, the press turns a blind eye to the similar plight of 600,000 to 800,000war orphans in Iraq courtesy of tax dodger war criminal Tony Blair."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

I've certainly become more affected by stories like this since my kids were born.Comment

Originally posted by vetran View PostThis does seem to be the stumbling block a lot of the time.
I don't think there is a solution really. Sure, social services appear to miss a lot of cases or admit there are problems but not do enough about it, but taking someone's kid away is really a massive step to take. Doing so because you only suspect abuse is a very difficult call - I know someone who as not had access to her kids for a year+ because after a very messy divorce the husband accused her of abusing them.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Whilst it's terrible, this is not a huge number in either absolute terms, or in relation to the number of cases they must have to investigate.Comment
