A Compilation of Statistics, Media Coverageand Human Outcry or ‘Cris de Coeurs’

IntroductionWhen investigating the problem of adoptions without parental consent, especially in the UK, ithas to be noted that children are often snatched by force, against their own and the parents’ will,generally without legal documentation or authorisation, even at birth. ‘Evidence’ is produced whilethe children are in ‘care’, supposedly in the ‘interest of the child’. Secret family court hearingsfirst justify the ‘care’ and then the adoption, against the parents’ wishes.

In the meantime, ‘contact’ may be allowed, but supervised, often imposing deeply disturbingconditions and lately even payment! Furthermore, parents may get ‘injunction orders’ thatthreaten with imprisonment, should they dare to complain about their ordeal to the media. Thosewho end up in prison may or may not see their children there. The ultimate punishment withoutcrime takes place when the parental consent for adoption is dispensed with in unlawful ways.Furthermore, a ‘culture of non­investigation of crimes against children’ exists, starting with some50 children a year dying in ‘care’.
