His gf had his dc at 14 can he foster?

[Galeforcewindatmywindow]

Can an adult who got his very under age gf pregnant foster dc way down the line?. The news article is leaving a bitter taste tbh...
Would such a man be suitable?. Surely not?

Just because they've had a large volume of children it does not mean that they would are good parents or that they'd be equipped to deal with any additional needs a child who has been through trauma might have.

The way they've exploited their various children on social media and the TV would suggest they don't know much about child safeguarding. So one would hope that factor alone would stop them being approved. (Especially as if anyone watches the TV shows its quite clear only the littlest ones get any attention and passed off to the older kids to care for once there's a new baby on the scene.)

The Radford house seems to be more like a chaitic group care home than a peaceful home environment of a Foster home.

I shouldn't of said "foster homes" my bad phrased it wrong, I meant to say care homes.

Children who are in children’s houses (care homes is a very outdated terminology) are more often than not unable to cope with living in a family setting. They have complex emotional needs and need strong support and structure from staff - none of which could be provided at the level of intensity needed when there are multiple other children to care for.

You are aware people adopted as babies also suffer with trauma from that right?

@Leah5678 I’ve comprehended just fine love, I’m not the one sat here excusing pedophilia that would be you. Alongside advocating vulnerable children live with someone who fucked a 13 year old and got her pregnant when he was an adult.

Some* people

Where the fuck did I "excuse pedophilia" FFS, you're either completely illiterate and can't read or just deliberately misinterpreting to start an argument. Yeah I said it was common back in the day because it was. I also said about three times that it was still wrong.

I highly doubt you'd dare say the shit you've said to me here irl, that's the problem with the internet tbh

You did say it was normal back in the day

That;s how i read it.

Right but the offence is right there. Sexual activity with a child. A 13 year old is a child and has no business being coerced into sex by a man. 13 and 18 are not close in age.

I can’t believe the number of child sexual abuse apologists on here.

If the child is coerced an offence has been committed.

I hope you are not calling me a sexual abuse apologist.

I don’t think there was any suggestion it wasn’t illegal. Just that that the law does differentiate between children under 13 and those 13 and over and people might want to be careful about calling people a rapist. Particularly when it’s quite obvious from the thread who is being talked about.
