Dear Sir or Madam,Recently I have been hearing from fellow former
L.A.C Children that they have had their children removed by social
services, using the factor that the parents had previously been in
care and or abused as children and therefore are posing a future
risk of possible emotional abuse. I would like to know how many
former L.A.C this is happening to, and why it seems to be becoming
a common factor.what does the Department for Children, schools and
families defines as future risk of possible emotional abuse given
the fact that there is no possible way of detecting whether somebod
poses a future risk of possible emotional abuse, and why also this
is being used for the excuse to also remove the children of former
victims of domestic violence and child abuse.Yours faithfully,seren

Dear Sir or Madam,
I note that not only have you not replied, therefore failing to
respond to the freedom of information and breeching the act, you
have not even sent an acknowledgement.
Could you please respond, and adhere to an act made by your House
of parliament, therefore technically made by yourself.
This is an important set of questions which need addressing.
Yours sincerely,
seren atkinson
