Today: Rise in number of children reporting sexual assaults by women to Childline; BBC West Midlands investigates parents with learning disabilities fighting to keep their children.

 

  • BBC1 in the West Midlands is tonight screening an Inside Out investigation “Christine’s Story” exploring the issue of parents with learning disabilities are more likely to have their children taken into care. A whistleblower from Birmingham’s child protection services claims once a child has been removed from a parent with a learning disability, the removal of the family’s next child is “virtually automatic”.

    Sadly if the child is in corporate care and reports being raped and prostituted out by her carers – CHILD LINE DO NOTHING-except refer them back to the social worker- who has already failed to act.

    It breaks my heart to hear how looked after children are really the same as the children in Ireland years ago- DISPOSBLE CHILDREN.

    Adults need to wake up and learn how to work with children properly- and that knowledge is NOT IN YOUR BOOKS.

    Women with so called learning disabilities-to have their babies stolen so some rich woman can play happy families.

    It has the same smell to it as the Witch hunts of the dark ages.

    That is when Patriarchal system moved in and took over the role of women in medicine, child birth, child care etc.

    Suddenly LOVE IS OUT and money and power over humans is all that matters- human children sold to needy adults- who are brainwashed into believing they are doing good- yet all the research from the last baby scoop shows the crimes against humanity worldwide- and British empire led the way in destroying the natives in every country to make them christian- now it is time to do the same on their own people.
