Its been announced today that the number of babies being taken off mothers at birth has dramatically increased. There are calls that the mothers need more support, but it will never happen.
It doesn't surprise me at all that babies are being taken off mothers, because they are easily sold for adoption. And its all about money these days.
Looking at it in the cold light of day, supporting a mother to look after her baby costs money. Selling a baby to an adoption agency makes a profit for a council.
Its a no-brainer that it's worthwhile for the council to remove the baby on the slimmest of evidence and then sell the kid on.
The sad thing is that most of the women caught up in this system find it hard to escape, no matter how much she sorts herself out, her past will always be raked up to support the social worker's case.
Easy targets for the authorities and who is going to listen to some ex-drug addict or a skank that has straightened her life out?
