Babies removed from new mothers

Babies removed from new mothers

CHILD protection workers are removing newborn babies from troubled first-time mothers before they leave the maternity ward.

By definition, these women have no history of neglecting their children, yet are considered a risk to them because of drug abuse (especially of ice) or a mental illness.

Hospitals co-operate with welfare agencies to ensure the mother is unaware of the process until it is under way.
