Golden Rules

Detailed GOLDEN RULES!!

with thanks to Ian Josephs

Do PLEASE remember the golden rules: (By all means print this off and keep the copy near at hand if SS approach! Show these rules to your lawyer or social worker to prove that you KNOW your rights!)

REMEMBER THESE EVEN IF YOU FORGET EVERYTHING ELSE I HAVE ADVISED!

1: NEVER contact social services (child protection) for help or advice. You should consider very carefully before you report a partner who batters you or even a stranger who sexually assaults your young child, as if you do the SS will as often as not take your children into care (and later for adoption) to “protect them” from risk!

Unfortunately many mothers who have reported the physical or sexual abuse of a child have not been believed even when the child has initiated statements to teachers and made statements to police so they lose all their children sometimes to the alleged abuser and sometimes to care .It is better to flee rather than take that risk unless there is hard proof of the abuse.

If they have your children and you are fighting to get them back, NEVER NEVER tell social workers how you think you are going to defeat them, or what you are going to do next!Remember, without mentioning it to “them”, that even if your children are “in care” social workers do not have the legal power to stop your children going to any call box (without any money) to dial 100 and asking the operator to reverse charges and to put the call through to their parent(s) ,or from going to any public library and e-mailing you, or even meeting you for a meal as long as they return “home” to the fosterers afterwards!

If the “SS” track you down to a foreign country and try to take your children back to be put in foster care in the UK Tell those children how to resist ! They should keep quiet until “security”at the airport and then loudly accuse their escort social worker of swallowing drugs in “rubber tubes” and making them do the same ! Alternatively they can say that they heard their social worker talking to an Arab at the airport about blowing up the plane !With luck they will miss the flight at least !
