thank you. I'm happy to say the scurge of "childrens homes", of dumping every kid with spirit in one, that model has rightly been abandoned. However my step daughter, a working class girl, is now feeling the reach of social services. It just seems to me that they attatch some blame of sorts to kids from certain communities. She is a little unconventional, but nothing by todays standards, yet she is being treated like a criminal. she's terrified now that a few puffs of canabis she had might jepordize her baby as she has to have a hair strand test. Her baby is 3 months old and she has been an exemplary mother. i have seen the "care providers" who argue continually to keep her under surveilence. private companies have no place in the care system in my view. They are probably more transparent than the institutions of the past. I will sue social services when i think i have the strength to do it. No one from the service has ever offered to help with counselling. i was lucky to meet doctor who was studying PTSD and childhood trauma and drug addiction.
I hated my mother for years. she was uneducated and abandoned herself. She was a victim of social services. She has passed away now and i think she went feeling guilty for mistakes she didn't make. She apologised for not listening to me or fighting for me...It wasn't her fault.....
It is still happening. Poor girls who aren't in homes now but under the care of social services have been allowed to be groomed and abused all over the UK by religious gangs. It happened in my city. tey are still trying to hide the true horror..it's sick and it's time we stepped up and stop it...
Thank you i appreciate the time you take to read and for great initiative you and others have produced. you should be proud...I feel great to be able to unburden my story and know it's not being used nefariously........
