BAZG thats such a horrifc story, sadly this is becoming more and more read about in the press!
The fact that this was allowed to continue over a long period of time is so sad. Where were the authorities who should have been over seeing her as a foster parent. Why did noone notice that these children had horrific injuries?
I dont just blame social workers, that would mean laying the blame at another persons door when the blame lays totally with the foster carer. I do blame the system that fails to protect these children. Social workers are so bogged down in red tape and paper work that they now have very little time to make field visits. Health visitors are in the same position, they have so many commitments that it is unbelievable.
This kind of thing sickens me and every decent person.
