My son works in security in a hospital up north (my home town)
My mother knows a family-weve all met the type at some point-rough,allow the kids to do what they want to make life easier at least one family member in prison at any one time
Mum had 4 kids taken away through sheer neglect-and within 5 years,she had a dd
Ss for some reason where very keen to keep them together,even though mum had lost 4 kids to the system and nothing had changed
Mum kept the dd-and the kid wasn't shelded from anything-from the age she understood,she knew
uncle up for trying to rape 14 year old girls?
Dd (aged 5/6) could tell you in detail about the case
Brother up for beating another bloke up?
The dd (aged about 9) told me all about it-the list was endless
I rang ss endless times but they didn't do much-just had a word with mum and mum didn't stop-just promised she would Shield her dd
I went nc with my family,so by default,I lost touch with them
Until about a year ago
My son rang me and it went like this
Ds-mum,do you know xx?
Me-no why?
Ds-ok,do you know xy?she's changed her name-her mum died last year
Me-yes,why?
Ds-shes been beaten so badly she's in hospital
Me-jesus,is she ok?(blah blah blah),how old is she now?
Ds-15-her boyfriend is waiting for her-ive just had to Sling him out-he was refusing to leave her side
A long story short-the 'boyfriend' is a Muslim,45 years old and it couldn't be clearer he's her bloody pimp If he had it flashing on his forehead
He was hanging around so she didnt escape
My son rang the police twice-and was told,twice,that they know her,they,they know him,there is nothing they can do as she's 'one of those girls',she's making 'her own lifestyle choices',it's 'her choice if she wants to see him' and 'if we pick him up,there's no proof'
He rang ss-and was told the same-her sw didn't want to know-just kept trotting out about 'lifestyle choices'
She woke up,walked out and is now back with him-she thinks he's her boyfriend-they've been together for the last 3 years
Her friends are 'dating' his friends (I'm not saying they are dating-its what they think)
This is a problem in every single place in the uk-its everywhere
I moved from my hometown to down south,and see it a lot-police do nothing (maybe 'have a word') and they carry on as they know they can get away with it
