Mother whose son, 8, was taken into care after she hit him with a hairbrush defends parental right to smack children
A mother whose eight-year-old son was taken into care after she smacked him with a hairbrush for refusing to get ready for school has defended her right to punish him.
It looks like the Local Authority. involved in this Case have not used the Kin care Clause, has the Child is in Foster Care.
ReplyDeleteI was approached by the Local Newspaper,to where this Lady lives,and was asked to make an opinion, but don't know whether they have printed anything?
I mentioned that even though this Lady has been charged, the Local Authority does have a code of conduct,and the Public Law Guidelines to follow eg Kin care, and giving out Pre Court Template letters, that are not forthcoming, with my Caseload.
