The England Care System Broken

Surprise Surprise . They have finally admitted to something I have been saying for years . The England care system is broken and theire are far to many kids in care . They are far to quick to destroy families rather than put in the support that is needed . Not only that but disabled kids and adults are being failed by the system . We asked for help many times when my youngest boy was growing up and never got it . We were left to battle as best we could . Even with my grandson who is autistic , we had to pay privately for his autism test because we were told he didnt have it . We were proved right thanks to private testing . My daughter gets no help and we have spent 100s of pounds on safety features inside and in the garden so he can play safely . The whole system is fucked up and social workers all need retraining and the actual system needs completely overhauling . I just wonder how long it will take for real change to happen and rules and regulations need to change . They have to make it clear that splitting up a family is the absolute last thing and that help must be there no matter the cost . Human life can never be said to cost to much . At the moment they are destroying peoples lives not helping them this can never be considered ok .

That sounds a lot like DHS here in America. They are supposed to help children, but more often than not, they take them away, rather than doing something to help the family help them.

@LordShadowfire Exactly their meant to help but instead destroy families .
