Mother 'not clever enough to raise child' has baby snatched by social workers after running away to Ireland to give birth
A couple who fled to Ireland after social workers threatened to remove their baby at birth have had the newborn snatched after all.
Kerry Robertson, 17, who has mild learning difficulties, and Mark McDougall, 25, went on the run after British social services said she was not clever enough to raise a child.
I can feel their hurt and PAIN, the Local Authority should of given them a chance by assessing this young couple in a mother and baby unit, because an individual has a slight learning difficulty, doesn't mean that she is gong to be a poor mother.
ReplyDeleteInstead this Baby will become another statistic of forced adoption.which is happening every single day in the UK, via the family courts.
With a Parenting course,and other assesments,and regular monitoring by Social Services, this young couple could of proved their capability..
The whole child protection industry in this country is a disgrace, with the so called medical experts labeling Parents with personality disorders, to gratify Local Authority adoption targets.
I have been dealing with a case where a Pediatrician has diagnosed a mother with MSBP,without even seeing her or the children, this individual is not adequately qualified to make such a diagnosis.and can only been made by a psychiatrist..
