I do not mean to sound unreasonable, and whilst I wish Riven all the best and hope she gets all the help she needs, I think the media are getting carried away and the obtrusive way in which they operate won't be helpfull at all.
Anyway I care for DH (war veteran) and 2 DD's who both have emotional and behavoural problems the youngest of which was diagnosed with epilepsy this week. I was offered 1 or 2 hours respite a week for someone to take DH out whilst DD's were at school. I have had 6 years of SW telling me how to look after my children because of CP, based on what my ex-husband told SS 15 years ago. It took a pyscologist's report to prove what I had been saying was the truth and not just making it up. Having asked for help from Mr Cameron, Brown and several members of the cabinet, both present and last government, all I received was a standard reply saying they are sorry to hear about my problems but they couldnt get involved in individual cases. This must mean they can't get involved unless it lets them look good in the media.
I am not looking for media attention just the help I need to look after my family
