Angry Re: Parenting without Prejudice

I wish it was like that in old Blighty. Please check out this website
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programme...ry/4278329.stm

It tells you about Angela Cannons and how she was wrongfully convicted of a crime she didn't do. It also tell's you about the many children, who are forced into adoption just because their parent (s) have a learning difficulty!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programme...ry/4287551.stm is about Doubts over children in care review, and also show's the Angela cannons case. There's going to be a lot of trouble in the future for British social services, and their steam-rollar approach.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/3514345.stm is about the Review of children in care cases, which makes shocking reading. How can something like this be happening in the 21st century?

Giving their reasons for overturning Mrs Cannings' conviction last month, the judges said: "If the outcome of the trial depends exclusively, or almost exclusively, on a serious disagreement between distinguished and reputable experts, it will often be unwise, and therefore unsafe, to proceed.

"Unless we are sure of guilt, the dreadful possibility always remains that a mother, already brutally scarred by the unexplained deaths of her babies, may find herself in prison for life for killing them when she should not be there at all."
