the Fran Lyon case: "Mother-to-be flees as social workers warn her they will take her baby away at birth"

i didn't realise she'd left Northumberland. Hopefully she'll have more luck in the Midlands!

i think some of those comments are a bit extreme; "No one could figure out why she had a tracheotomy..." is it really likely to be that relevant?

Thansk Expat me too.

Another case of SS going well beyond their remit has been revealed in the court judgement over the woman who didn't want to tell her family about her pregnancy or baby. The court of appeal has upheld her right not to tell the father/her family. Yet the relevant SWs went ahead and contacted her family ahead of judgement. Described as a 'mistake'.

Well she really has "fled" now.

I hope she gets some peace & contentment in her new country.
