Note: I am editing this post because a really interesting comment was left here. I wanted to be sure that nobody missed it.
"I usually can't find the time to read these longish reports from the bureaucracy, so I use an elementary test. I use text search to find the number of occurrences of the words mother and father. Lord Laming's report contains no occurrences of mother and just one occurrence of father, not as the person who makes the decisions in the family, but as role model. Reports like this ignore the primary resources for the care of children."
Thanks Robert.
