It really does my head in when people side with social services. They have an opinion that "they are just doing what's best for the child". These people that have the opinion mostly have never even had involvement with SS, therefore don't see the lies and manipulation of a situation that they use.

It's easy for them to say that a parent 'could pose a risk' but do you know how hard it is to prove you wouldn't?

I seen an utterly revolting article that really baffled me. Social workers manage to get away with this stuff daily. Yet its not reported as it should be. This child was removed, with a judges permission. Then placed back with the mother by another judge.
There is so much corruption in our society and it needs to change.

Very few parent who have had ss involvement want to admit that they could have done things better. It’s easier to blame SS.

TastingTheRainbow Yes of course. People are making it up, Parents are NOT fleeing the country, Sir Bob Geldof's wrong, AIMS are wrong, OP's wrong, the damage to my kids is a complete fabrication, Spain and other European countries are not calling Britain the child stealing nation, everything is hunky dory and The Needs Of The Child Are Paramount. Have fun in your bubble. Goodnight. Wine

Nicknacky · 05/08/2019 23:07

The needs of the children ARE paramount. That should go without saying.

jennymanara · 05/08/2019 23:20

I lived in another European country for a few years. I know a young girl who was being physically abused by her father. The police were regularly called by neighbours. I think in Britain that girl would have been taken into care. In that country she was not. I am glad in Britain we intervene more.
Where the family courts do behave appallingly is in insisting children should always see their father and in the routine dismissal of the mother saying he is abusing the kids.

Goodnight Savanah, hope your cold's a bit better x

auntethel · 05/08/2019 23:25

Savanah watch out for Nicknacky, she's one of spero's "minions".Grin goodnight x

Nicknacky · 05/08/2019 23:33

“Spero’s minions”? What does that even mean? I don’t honk I have particularly conversed with Spero before.

ethel That stupid statement just goes to show how ridiculous you are being.

SavanahXx · 05/08/2019 23:34

@auntethel definitely a minion ;) and I'm still really poorly with it. But I suppose it will get worse before getting better. Good night x

How am I am “minion”? Because I have my own professional experiences in parenting and don’t agree with the crap you two are spouting?

Nicknacky · 05/08/2019 23:36

That should say “poor parenting”.

SavanahXx · 05/08/2019 23:51

Until you've been on the receiving end of lying corrupt social workers. Your opinion doesn't mean too much.

OP posts:
Nicknacky · 05/08/2019 23:53

My opinion counts as much as anyone else on this thread. I haven’t had social work intervention because I’m a good parent who leads a good life.

And that’s having taken my children to hospital with avoidable accidents. No one is out to get parents.

It's starting to sound as though OP has a track record of resorting to physical and verbal abuse against adults when she doesn't get her own way. (she's referred to assaulting people while on a night out, and is happy to call other posters stupid and dishonest and naive) While she may believe that this doesn't make her a 'bad parent' because of course she knows she would never hit her own child (well, unless the child 'showed no respect' or something...) it's not that surprising that social workers might have some fairly serious concerns.

Nicknacky · 06/08/2019 00:12

I think that’s accurate SGB

SemperIdem · 06/08/2019 00:14

I am shocked this thread is still standing.

The op and supporters are delusional.

ReanimatedSGB · 06/08/2019 00:15

Geldof suffers from deep-rooted misogyny, which is why no one has been able to take him seriously for years: his issue with the family courts was not SW taking children away, but the courts refusing to believe abusive men that their wives were crazy dishonest sluts refusing them contact out of spite...

auntethel · 06/08/2019 02:10

Savanah I woke in the night to find pub's chucked out and more minions have arrived, rambling on about nothingGrin These are the heckling type as you can see. Just completely ignore. Hope they don't pinch all the crisps though Shock Nah, they won't, one of them's a cop Wink

MarieFromStTropez · 06/08/2019 02:47

Once it gets to court, it is very much a case of SS vs the parent. I had always thought that SS would remain impartial and would just want what is best for the child. However, SS whatever they can, including distorting, hiding and making up evidence to support their case.

In the case that I was involved in, the parents were accused of child abuse. SS presented evidence to support this. The evidence was examined by police forensics and found to support the parents' innocence 100%. As an example, semen on clothing which turned out to be banana. This isn't exactly what happened, but it's similar.

SS buried the police forensic's evidence and it was not presented to the court. It was not until the court case was over and the parents collected their belongings from the police station, that they discovered the Police Forensics Report which would have cleared them. Unfortunately it was by then too late for the parents to do anything.

SavanahXx · 06/08/2019 07:53

Haha im a shit mother? Lovie I guarantee im a better parent than you could ever be, who's the pathetic one who 'abuses and attacks' now eh? My child comes first 100% I literally never get myself any 'treats' because my child is far more important. As for me referring to "attacking someone on a night out" that was an example. I've never been in a fight. Also never been arrested/spoken to the police. I've already stated the reason I had DD was due to false allegations about my partner. Please explain how that makes me a "shite mother" you people are actually beyond disgusting and I hope when your children realise what you're actually like, they will be ashamed of each and everyone of you.

The stigma around parents and SS needs to change. People aren't "shite parents" because theyre involved. Honestly. You all have your head shoved so far up your arses.

Savanah you need to ignore the minions. I've come across them before, that's why I joked about them. Their sole purpose is to wind you up and that's it. Don't let them.

SavanahXx · 06/08/2019 08:40

@auntethel I really hope that they are ashamed of themselves. How would they feel if when their DC grew up, they had SS involvement. Would they then call them shit parents? It's sad really
