MADonna strikes again
Occasionally I will watch a little junk TV and occasionally it will be the crap known as Waterloo Road, this being a drama mildly related to my profession. Now the fact this program is complete bollocks and in the real world all the characters would be sacked within a heart beat is beside the point but a story line where a self righteous young lady buys a baby from Rwanda to give it a better life in this country just makes it more like television diarrhoea. Her excuse… well we don’t know what its like for that child and it should be given a better future, a better opportunity which then brings me to the insane MADonna where its seems its allowed to happen in real life. Yet again she seems to be after another little brown baby because she seems to think she could give it a better future what with all her wealth (meaning money that its). Money can buy children many things to put smiles on their cute little faces but what money can’t buy are the very things MADonna seems to be very poor with. Countless marriages and men in and out of her bed and splashed all over the papers, her children jetted across the world to be with family at a minutes notice, where is the stability, the morals and self respect and more importantly where is the selfless love that you give your children? The woman is a disgrace and as role model to young ladies and even celebrities such as Britney Spears I prey and hope the judge does all that is possible to keep this woman away from any more children Including her latest flavour of the month which seems to be only just out of short trousers.
Every Child Matters? More like Political Correctness Matters
I read a rather disturbing article this morning while on the way to work, this article stuck in my mind throughout the day as I tried to see the sense in it I kept coming to the same conclusion that it was completely insane.
The gist for those that scan articles is that basically, mother with two very young children is a smack head; grand parents take the children so to be with family while mother goes to rehab. Social Services take children off grandparents because they are too old, grand parents fight for custody but find legal bills too much and have to agree to adoption. Children get adopted by two Gay men even though children show dislike to men but Social Services disregard this and the four other couples that apply and the children go to gay couple. Grandparents show outrage and get slammed by Social Services for being homophobic and threaten to never let them see their grandchildren ever again. Phew that’s about it.
Firstly, it would be completely wrong in taking these children away from their family at such a young age and to have two loving Grandparents willing to take them on it would be stupid to cut ties with their family. There has to be some hope that their mother would get better and make up for the mistakes she has made, surely the Social Service could help the family stay to together rather than split it up.
Secondly, threatening the Grandparents with the action of never letting them see their Grandchildren again because of their disagreement with them being looked after by two Gay men is not only ridiculous and surely illegal in some way. Gay Parent Adoption is still fairly new and therefore I’m sure people still disagree with it, and doesn’t it make sense that there is need for stable structured family for these children. I.e. a mother and a father?
Finally, the fact that the children show discomfort around males is just complete lunacy placing these little children with two grown men. Surely someone in the Social Services can see this and needs to state the obvious as I’m sure it would be classed as child abuse. The Social Services should be working hard to look after those in need especially with past cases of child neglect that they are so blatantly responsible for. Torturing two young children by taking them away from there family and placing them in a home of two strange men for the sake of Political Correctness is crazy.
Children In Need
The story at he minute is the break up of Guy the Geezer Ritchie and MADonna, as most celebrities a divorce is part of the job. Its all publicity and the thought of what it may do to their children is put on the back shelf. Well not MADonna, she has made it clear to The Geezer that the children come first with a set of rules that will make you mind bogle.
Guy can't introduce the kids to any "new friends"; he can't be photographed withHence MADonna.
them - which he has; fast food is completely out of the question as they must
stick to a macrobiotic, vegetarian, organic diet and only drink Kabbalah water;
they are not allowed to read newspapers or magazines, nor watch TV or DVDs; all
the clothes they wear are to be 100 per cent natural materials; their toys must
be spiritually and ethically sound; and when they are out in public their hands
must be cleaned with disinfectant spray. The other instructions are: Guy must
not discuss break-up; Madonna must be able to speak to them three times a day;
and bedtime story for David must be from Madge's English Rose books.
Now what gets me is she fought to adopt a child to give him a stable life, a better life. But now she jets these kids around the world at the push of a button, breaks up a family home while she gets freaky with some fella years younger. Plastered all over the papers constantly and yet this will have no effect on their children, Only to drink Kabbalah water??!! what the hell is that about??
In the news all week there has reports on child abuse and neglect of the public services and government, we live in a world lead by greed and self obsessive people who may like children but don't really care, these little people are our future and its us who are shaping them into the emotional, depressed states that we see in our schools. Paper policies to prevent the abuse and neglect of children brought in by our government that are not worth the ink to write them as we see them fail over and over again. We have come from being the great United Kingdom with the fourth biggest economy and yet we have children starving to death in our streets forgotten about and lost in the stacks of paper work that some underpaid, hungover 20 something has forgotten to file.
Tonight is Children In Need a night where all the people in the Media can feel good about themselves, give a bit of their precious time and throw pictures of sick deprived children in our faces and ask for help. Help to clean up the mess of a failed society and an even worse government. Maybe the effort going into tonights show could have gone into the prevention of the latest case of abuse to hit the news.
Does Every Child Matter?
At the beginning of the year I attended a conference on Every Child Matters, a policy that came about in 2000 when the tragic cruelty happened to Victoria Climbre. I had only read about this tragedy around that time, but never really read into what happened and the events that happened before and after the poor girls death.
I was shocked and tried to write a post about how I felt, mostly anger at how this country had failed a child and all those people that were involved and yet did nothing to prevent it. I could not find the words as it upset me alot and so I left it to come back at another time.
At that time I thought that nothing like that could ever happen again as policies were put into action and strict laws were brought in, to ensure that children would not be over looked in this way again. It got to me that it took the horrendous death of an 8 year old to highlight the holes in the system that we had faith in.
But the damage had been done and it was said that it should never happen again, until 2003 when Ian Huntley a school employee and sick pedo abducted two 10 year old girls and murdered them in his house. He lied to the cameras and even went looking for them until he was found out and the government brought in the CRB check compulsory for anyone who would be in contact with children. Again an action that was enforced at the cost of the lives of children.
It saddens me that today's Britain is in such a mess that it cannot look after those who are most precious to it.
This past week we have seen the death of seven-year-old Khyra Ishaq, a girl from Birmingham that was allowed to starve to death. Along with her siblings the child was left with no food while the mother and stepfather stuffed their faces for reason yet unknown, but one theory has been voiced that it was some religious ritual, this has yet to be proven.
The parents are converts to Islam (surprise surprise) the religion of peace, and they kept there children in doors at all times after they were taken out of school by their parents because they claimed the children were being bullied.
Social Services had bee alerted but again failed to follow up the call and check in on the children. This seems very similar to Victoria Climbre.
How can children starve to death in Britain?, the country that constantly helps the third world in their fight against poverty and hunger. We continue to open our doors to help those less fortunate and welcome people into our country and yet we are unable to help and look after our own. One of the children mentioned was not of this country and yet it happened. Surely its a sign that this country is starting to feel the effect of over crowding, the public services can not cope with the increasing population. The police find it hard to work the streets, hospitals are over crowded with a shortage of doctors, social services are incompetent, the schools are in need of updating and the prisons are taking to releasing criminals early due to over crowding.
Yet the fat cats in Westminster continue to pay up for the two houses and extravagant grocery lists and when a child is the subject of some horrendous cruelty they come together and produce some white paper on how to prevent it from happening again. Faith in the system is becoming translucent and doubt that any government new or old can provide confidence into this country that its people the true people of Britain will and can be looked after. When will it be that we will all feel as though someone out there who we pay for is actually doing their jobs right.
