I have said it before and I will say it again ......                                                   

SOCIAL WORKERS DO NOT MAKE THE DECISION TO REMOVE CHILDREN FROM PARENTS! - got it????

The legal system of this country (England and Wales) makes that decision made on the evidence available.

I admit freely that sometimes that "evidence" may be the theory of a particular medical so-called "expert" etc and subsequently turn out to be tragically incorrect; unfortunately similar mistakes have been made in other courts and make me relieved we no longer have capital punishment - but - it does not condemn the whole of the justice system!

Bear in mind that the public also "wants it both ways". Social Workers are pilloried if they leave children with neglectful or abusing parents and condemned if they remove them to care (as above)
