<t>Hi David<br/> <br/> I worry about the cuts myself. The child care issue is a big one for me and my husband. I suffer from a long term illness which means I am entitled to Long Term Incapasity Benefit. I have had all the medicals in the past and have met the threshold every time.<br/> <br/> Becaus...

<t>What an awful time that must have been for you.<br/> <br/> In my long and weary road through the CSA system, both on old rules and new, I have discovered that calling in the MP is the way to go. <br/> <br/> They are only allowed to take 40% of your pay each week/month including arrears and usuall...

<t>How appalling!!! Shall they be made to sit at the rear of the bus or go to different schools? Talk about FOSTER CHILDREN - KNOW YOUR PLACE!!!<br/> <br/> Lets hope this is seen for what it is pathetic and cruel.<br/> <br/> By the way, my own kids love a good hand-me-down!!

<t>Hello<br/> <br/> As there is no contact order I would stop contact and demand a meeting where Grandma is told in NO uncertain terms that she is to supervise contact at all times and that she has failed to do this. It is totally unacceptable that a child was told you are "too old" etc.<br/> <br/> ...

That's great to know!!! Thanks x

<t>How worrying this must be for you... I remember the SW saying to me that each new child should be looked at individually. So if they see the changes that have been made they may well just watch closely and monitor the situation. Eight months sober is not that much but they are doing well and hope...

<t>That is a pity.... as I said in another post to you, if you have been surrounded by negative issues and injustice then you are bound to feel negative and upset. It is a shame that you have had no closure from your complaints. I wish you the best and hope you can come back to visit the site again....
