Take a teenager who decides that they no longer want to wash/do chores/go to
school, or worse, starts to steal from the local shop, friends, family
members. If the parents tell the teenager off for bad behaviour, has that
teenager been subjected to abuse. Apply the rules of common sense and decide
for yourself. Now apply the rules of the "experts" and see what you come up
with. If the "expert" answer is:- Well the teen is stealing/skipping school/
being verbally and physically threatening because he/she has been abused by
his/her parents, then you are starting to get the idea.
How many of us, have seen an unhappy child being dragged around the
supermarket by their parents, only to be smacked, in full view of other
shoppers, for demanding sweets, biscuits, cakes etc, or simply out of sheer
frustration at the boredom of this activity from their point of view. Could
this be considered abuse? Applying the rules of common sense, it probably
is, and personally that is the stand I take. I'd like to take those parents
by the scruff of the neck and have a real go at them. I daren't even
contemplate what an "expert" might make of that!
What of a child in care? How much abuse do Social workers carry out on
children under their care? For example, would depriving a child of water
count as abuse? I think it would, allowing for common sense to prevail. But
for the "experts", who knows. Does teaching a child to steal, do drugs,
shoplift etc count as abuse? Now I believe that it is, and, I hear you say,
no-one would do that anyway, and I hope you are right. However, whilst I
believe that every loving parent would teach their children NOT to do these
things, I do not believe that SS has the same interests at heart. After all,
these are not their children are they? they are just an inconvenience
dropped on them by society, just another number!
It follows then, that if
the SS do not teach the children in their care the difference between right
and wrong, then these same children are probably victims of state condoned
abuse on the largest scale ever seen in the civilized world. How else could
you describe the training of young thugs, tearaways etc. Worse still, the
inherent dangers in training a child to become a false accuser is a real
risk that the SS seem only to willing to ignore.
