So when I read the report from Action for Children, I thought apparently stupidly that it was going to help and safeguard children.
That lasted about 10 minutes, before I was shot down in flames from 'learned' people that it was a disaster, that it was getting close to state control, ect.
I quote from an article in Daily Mail,
"We have reached a tipping point. If this extraordinarily dangerous piece of legislation is passed, all parents in Britain effectively become suspects in the eyes of the authorities looking out for those deemed not to love their children enough.For decades I have been battling to stop social workers who want to remove children from loving mothers. This 'Cin-derella Law', I believe, increases the threat, and I am extremely alarmed by this creeping, insidious intrusion of the state into the lives of ordinary families.
Why is the Nanny State seeking to take over the role of parents? It helps no one, least of all the children. For placing abused children 'in care' is, I believe, simply another form of neglect."

The author , Erin Pizzey, of this article is a very experienced, highly thought of supporter of families, so I have to believe she is right.
I now no longer, know where we go in safeguarding our lost children/grandchildren from emotional despair.
No doubt someone will enlighten me.
