have no link, but it has been all over the news, 'parents' for want of a better word, with (think it's 5) children ranging from 13months to 7yrs, kids were found starving (one with LIVE MAGGOTS in nappy). Parents have been jailed for 7 yrs. Good. but what was also horrible was learning that sw expect less from parents in deprived areas than from affluent areas, in terms of nurturing - so signs of neglect that would have led to action in some cases, are just left in others? I must surely have misunderstood that, I can't believe it - the implications are terrifying.
Whole story had me in tears, I just wanted to go get those kids and have them myself.
