Don’t normally comment but I agree with this - I am a social worker in adults. The reason I don’t work in children’s is because during training (one of many examples) I took three beautiful children to have contact with their birth parents. The parents turned up stinking of booze and tore me to shreds because my car was small and in their opinion unsafe (it wasn’t). The same parents had thrown their eldest son (4) repeatedly at a wall breaking many of his bones, physically abused their other two kids (3 and 1). You’d be amazed at who gets access/custody to see their kids, nervmind brief contact sessions. Its horrifying. Social workers get a lot of stick for removing kids willy nilly but it’s actually really hard to remove kids and cease contact, violent crimes etc or not. So yeah can vouch for this - she will have been made to do it If she didn’t decide to herself. Anyway, back to the goss. ☺
that's such a horrible, sad story. I'm sure judges are trying to normalize child abuse, there seems no logic in allowing contact like that to take place!
