Tonight Pru Goward and the NSW Government passed the most dangerous legislation against vulnerable children and families since Federation.
These Laws are NOT reforms to Child Protection they are Human Rights violations.
Children in Care can now be given any unapproved drug or treatment the agency wants no matter how inhumane or dangerous. Significantly high numbers of Children in Care are already on dangerous drugs because of the trauma of their forced removal from their families so foster parents can better manage them as Zombies. This is a Law that will DAMAGE children for life, which should be criminal not legal.
This legislation does not have any provision to ensure early intervention or better supports for vulnerable children and families at all. There is not enough services to support vulnerable children and families due to lack of government funding now, so parents will not be able to comply with parenting agreements, their children will just be forcibly removed and adopted as that is cheapest option for the NSW Government.
Quick and easy Forced adoptions will now be the first priority of the NSW Government for all children in Care to save money.
As Pru Goward stated in Parliament yesterday "It is always about money" and Linda Burney responded to her "Yes it is always about the money from your prospective".
This legislation is about saving money not supporting families to stay together which is in the best interest of vulnerable children and families. NSW has failed to learn the lessons of history and Pru Goward’s new legislation evidences that point very well. No where is this legislation will her Department be bound by any Law to provide help and support to families to stay together or for restoration.
Forced adoptions do not ensure a safe, stable and loving home for life that is a myth. The trauma and life long damage of Australia's past forced adoption policies are still being realised for the victims following the National Apology only one year ago.
Open adoption is another myth as it will be up to the adoptive parents as to the possibility of any further contact with the biological family.
There is now no recourse or justice for families at all no chance to reform no chance for restoration.
The department already had too much power and no accountability and vulnerable children and families that have committed no crime that need support are not receiving help, instead families are forcibly ripped apart so often without warning. Now these children will be forcibly adopted for life because it costs less.
Child safety workers are NOT a registered Profession in Australia they have no Governing Body to establish and mandate codes of practice and conduct. No governing Board to mandate base levels of education and training. No external Board is monitoring their performance to protect the public from the harm their opinions are doing to children and families everyday. No one is holding these unregistered caseworkers accountable in an environment of secrecy. Unregistered caseworkers have been given more power then any other Profession in Australia. Their opinions are made without adequate investigations, as evidence is not required in the secretive Care Courts. Parents are denied justice.
NSW now has a child protection industry with no accountability that relies not on evidence but on an unregistered caseworkers opinion to forcibly remove and adopt children destroying families for life. That is why so many children are stolen and the system is and always has been a total failure. The public are being deceived, the stealing of children from vulnerable families who have committed no crime is common practice as a first response by the child protection industry to an often “anonymous” report not as a last resort. Children are being stolen despite overwhelming evidence that parents, grandparents and families are both willing and able to care for their children and despite the government having a statutory responsibility to help families, it is just not happening.
The Federal Government said “SORRY” to the “Stolen Generation” the “Forgotten Australians” and for past Forced Adoptions yet NOTHING has changed at the State level and the past abuses continue today. “Sorry” for past government abuse becomes meaningless while ever the abuse of the past continues today. NSW is the worst state of all, they have stolen more children then any other and under perform in every report released.
The NSW government is failing vulnerable children and families everyday the only people that will benefit from this legislation in this multi billion dollar Child Protection industry are the profiteering stakeholders especially the NGO's currently before the Royal Commission for their past abuses of vulnerable children.
Pru Goward has sold vulnerable children and families to private enterprise to save money these Laws will not ensure any better outcomes for children in care and result in the ongoing lifelong damage of another stolen generation.
