"... many innocent people
are being wrongly accused of child abuse and whose lives in consequence
are
being turned upside down without due justification. ...
Children are made
to live in constant fear of being parted from their parents.
The climate is
like that of a witchhunt in which the voice of reason and all sense of proportion
is lost." Earl Howe. House of Lords "Child Abuse"
Hansard 17 Oct. 2001 FULL
TEXT
In
the UK today ordinary people like you, with nothing to hide, can be accused of
abuse on almost no evidence, and without any proper witnesses to support the story.
The strain of “child
protection” intruding into your family can make you depressed or ill for a long
time, or push you into debt, and therefore unable to provide your child with the
protection and love you usually give them.
Your
children can be taken away from you – then quickly and irreversibly adopted into
another family.
You
can be arrested in your own home in front of your family and in full view of your
friends and neighbours, held in a police cell, interviewed under caution, charged
and called to appear in court.
You
can be convicted without proof, evidence, witnesses or corroboration and live
for years in prison.
You
live for ever after under suspicion by the authorities.
Any
other child you have now or later will be at risk of the same treatment and may
be removed from you.
You
have done nothing wrong.
But that does not protect you.
