Can I ask an urgent question about rights?

[adoptakid]

Nc'd for this.

Dcs 'blood' relatives, who have a court injuction (and have done time in jail for their abuse of my beautiful child) are harrassing me.

DC doesnt want to know, she has strong memories of the abuse, and Im her mum, and that it (her words).

But they keep finding where we live, and I get nasty trexts/phone messages etc (im livid with the 192.c0m people for having my name and address for all to see if they google my real name, yet they wont remove my details despite a million requests, and this was put on without any permission).

we've had to move a number of times.

Ive asked social services, the post adoption panel, and the police to help us but they keep passing the buck one to another.

Not only is DC getting freaked out but I am too.

What can I do?

DC freaks out at the very thought of seeing anyone anyway, in her past.

(one person from there isn't under a court injunction but theyre really harassing us, and I allowed contact by post ONLY, yet the texts/calls keep coming-I willl be changing my number soon)

have to log off now as I have to see to DCs medication and stuff, will hopefully read some replies tomorrow.
thanks.

I'm sorry no advice (other than logging everything which I'm sure you're already doing). Have you thought of posting this in Legal? There may be people who could advise around the injunctions, what the Police should be doing, whether you could get an injunction against the one person who doesn't yet have one.

I had no idea about the 192.com site - just found myself on there (I have a common name but it's not hard when they list age ranges too!) I do not understand how publishing all that information where anyone can find it without your consent fits into data protection (I'm ex-directory, on the non-public electoral role etc) Will ask them to remove me ASAP.

I think you need to forget about the fact that this is related to adoption - it's stalking / harassment and it's a criminal offence . You need help to get the police to act .

Forget about the post adoption panel and social services . The fact that the people concerned used to be related to your daughter is neither here nor there . Contact these people for advice .

The 192.com thing comes from the public register of voters (unless you're a company or in the phone book), so make sure that you're not on that. If you're on the edited/open register, you're consenting to having your data made public. Changing it also won't remove old data from 192 (eg I'm still coming up under my parents' address from before they allowed the opt-out).

Sorry I'm no help with anything else, but thought this might be useful!

Have you been in contact with your local MP? I know you say you have moved and so it may not have been the same MP all the time but having their support can cause things to suddenly happen.

Thanks for replies.

The police- Ive told them time and again its harrassment but they wont help us.

Adoption panel- in another borough we lived in they were very supportive but in our current one they are shit. the other borought cant help now as we're under this one.

As i said, they all keep passing the buck.

So my 'crime' is saving a child from a life in care, and loving them, and this is the treatment we get???? .

As for 192.com, im off the online electoral reg but to try and get in touch with 192 is impossible, theres never anyone on the phone. online is impossible, and electoral people say its nothing to do with them.

maiyakat my name is a more unusual name, not a Jane Smith or anything like that, but there are a few of us with the same name and you're right, the fact they add the age range and everything....its pathetic.

local mp has tried, hes very good (and Labour, may i add, the rest of the parties didnt bother replying to my enquiries).

The police just CBA, theyre too busy looking for migrants and terrorists (their words!)

Ill try the legal site on mn. thank you all for the support. .

You have the option of going to a solicitors and asking for a non molestation order. (common in domestic violence cases) to protect yourself and your child from them. Within that they can put a non disclosure order so no services can disclose your address etc. I'm sorry this is happening .Im a birth mum and though I have letter box contact I am very careful not to put anything unsettling in my letterbox for my birth son.

Thank you.

thing is I cant afford a lawyer and wouldn't know where to start.

I went through so much to adopt my gorgeous child, all the third degree/paperwork./agonising wait (as all adopters know) and THIS is what I get.

I don't expect medals or anything for this, just some bloody support.

thank you all, again. .
