..even though the children are now safer in their homes, it's heart-breaking to think of the adults they'll become and how damaged they'll be..I'm not going to assume any mental illness though with this just because I've known of something similar and realised that there are in the world as well just some really awful people who would do such extremes for personal gain..is that mentally ill as well..?../I don't know but I never found that level of understanding with the situation I knew of, so...also the courts have convicted on what they've convicted on and for those reasons and I assume, considered mental illness...?...
..anyways I don't believe it's in any way illustrative of a UK mindset atm, TS..(but you knew I wouldn't agree..

..)..the 'dirty looks' which are there from some people are in my experiences only there from a very few judgemental people/or a minority..not just in our school but in every school I know..low income families/travelling families etc have a general excellent support from parents who are more fortunate and that's very much what is passed on to their children as well...
..I have no idea why all of these things 'slipped through a net' of so many people and that's what needs to be so closely looked at because so may cut-backs are being made as well...but sadly, we're far, far too often saying this should never have happened to those children and it'll be closely looked at ..but then again..and again...
