yet again the Govt thinks they have a right to say who is or what is good for someone’s child

No wonder I left that country and right now I am fighting tooth and nail to stop this country from turning into the old country

I grew up in a foster home and I know how social services work .

Believe me they are corrupt to the core

So I'm guessing you most likely feel that it's entirely likely that there's an active 'incentive' in place for the social workers to try to place as many children into the foster home / adoption system as they possibly can?  This is all just sickening.

I'm terribly sorry to hear of the troubles you've experienced at the hands of the Government.  What awful experiences to have to endure, and all because of Socialist bureaucracy.  I'm so glad that you've done so well with your life despite that....weaker people might have fallen apart from being subjected to such evil, and yes I truly mean evil when they treat people's lives and families with such a cavalier disregard.  The fact that you've been able to thrive and be successful despite what they've done to you is a great testament to the strength of your character.

I joined the army at 16 to get out and away so that saved me.
My sister on the other hand ended up on drugs and I mean hard drugs who has lost her kids.

What they did to my sister and I was disgusting. I asked the social worker why did you leave us in a place where you knew we were being totally whacked every day with belts, straps, planks of wood etc in the last foster home and he said that they thought it might blow over.
No they just did not want to do more paper work and wanted to keep us away from our real mother.

MAYBE ONE day I will find out if she is alive but in the meantime I have 3 kids who will never go through any of that and they will not be living in a socialist country if I or the misses have anything to do with it.
