The Researching Reform blog often hosts real stories from inside the family justice system, whether they are families’ experiences or child protection professionals’, however we have started to receive an unusually high amount of requests to share stories, so we’re offering families, and anyone else who would like it, an open platform to amplify their voices.
Your Story is a series featuring family court experiences which need to be heard, either due to alleged miscarriages of justice or a desire to alert the public and policy makers to a specific problem inside the courts.
Our first story will be published tomorrow, and is about a forced adoption gone wrong, which features some remarkable errors.
All the stories we add are fact checked by us, and will be published without names and information which could lead to identification of the parties where reporting and legal restrictions apply.
We will ask the same questions for each interview. You can see them below to get a feel for what we will be sharing:
1. Could you give a brief summary of the facts of your case?
2. What went wrong in your case?
3. What happened after you alerted the professionals to the errors?
4. How do you feel the errors were dealt with?
5. What do you think could have been done differently?
6. What message would you like to pass on to the child welfare system?
If you would like to share your story, please get in touch by posting below, or email us at contactnphillips at gmail dot com.

I dont want to go over my case, it was a long and harrowing experience of corruption that I would never have believed existed with a social worker department that has the care of UK children and their families.
What went wrong in my case was firstly ever contacting a social worker department to request advice about a family problem involving depression by the father of my children. From this I can only say, avoid social services at all cost and to the point that you should never, never report expected abuse of any kind unless you know for sure that abuse is happening. Should you do so, I have learnt from many years experience with social services and family courts that you will fall prey to corrupt, negligent and career minded people with no interest what so ever in the protection of children. You and your children will just become a easy target for these awful people with £ signs in their heads and a motivation to take a further step up the career ladder.
With government targets for forced adoptions it has opened the door to child trafficking in the uk on a grand scale. All done by ‘social workers’ puppets of corrupt managers in county halls. They have a well oiled machine to take children under false allegations where no parent has the money or backing of a family court to have a social worker investigated, whether its perverting the course of justice by them, contempt of court or sheer bloody minded negligence and failure in duty of care. If the money and tools were there, half the nations social workers, manager and legal teams in county halls would be sacked or in prison for their crimes.
It does not stop there either, the offences continue on your children in too many ways to list, destroying their future when reaching adulthood. Whether its homelessness created by destroying their birth families and removing all communication with them, or drug related, where children are put under mental health due to abuse in care or given prescribed drugs with no uk licence while in care, or removing their children as they survived care and went on to have families of their own. In doing so they will use false records of the child’s early time spent with their own birth families to also remove theirs. To venture into the garden of social services is to witness hell before death. It will consume and eat you alive and destroy yours and your children’s futures in many ways to come.
I can only say that in the end, I am grateful only for the strength of my children, now adults in battling to not only survive their onslaught of crime by so many while in care, but also the crimes they still commit against them now. We all have hope that one day, someone will break their corruption, dig into the roots of the years they have survived being corrupt and hurting so many children and birth families. They are the main abusers in this country of all children, which ever cog in the wheel they are. Even so, if a decent and honest social worker, as to stand by and do nothing about the corruption makes them just as guilty for every abused child within the system.

i must agree 100%. They are the real abusers not the parents who in many cases are completely stitched up by corrupt Social workers.
Children are being systematically isolated from their parents using a list of very dirty tricks. they are without doubt severing the ties of children from their parents in the pursuit of Adoption orders. its unlawful but their Legal teams within the LA make shure its all done in a way so the parents are powerless to stop it.
Pure Evil people who should be doing time. some might not agree but if we had the choice of who stays behind bars costing the tax payer £800 a week, Adam Johnson or Our most hated Social worker we can tell you Johnson would be going home. the SS could rot in hell for all we care. Tony Blair and many others in Govt are to blame for all this with a policy to increase the number of Adoptions just to save on fostering costs. as always its all about the money.

they steal children and get away with it time and time again they are neglectful themselves and can do and say as they please and you have a very small chance of even having the abilty to fight against them after they back you into a corner and drain you to the point that you will loose your mind that is when they swoop in get rid of your solicitor who said it was a crime against myself and had my case taken out the family courts and sent to county court on the grounds of them not allowing me to have my human rights. then i am slapped on a section whilst they continue court proceedings without my presence put my baby boy up for adoption and no part of what actualy happened or contesting the truth was i allowed to take part of i just had to lie down and take it still till this day i am heart broken my son is now 17 and he was 4 when this happened and the effects on myself just thinking that he may think he was unwanted is possibly worse then having him adopted as they will not allow any letter box contact the after care was non existant and i was left to rot but i am a fighter i now have a beatiful boy who is nearly 5 and i steer clear from all services and am worried about my son having a bump on his head i am super protective and will never fall into their traps again meaning i have had jobs involving working in children homes because if you cant beat them join them plus its nice to give something back i would love to work independtly with birth families who have suffered a loss or mothers to support them and steer clear from these vultures these are my long term goals but the system is so so evil and we the people must stand together and the law that we can not access legal aid to take cases back to court is one of the biggest loop holes as they get away with murder and they are never held accountable they make my skin crawl i also believe that once they target you they can pretty much take every child from birth i believe a programne needs to be set up to help women who continue to have children for social services as its too much damage for both parties but most are vunerable and easy targets and have no idea how to take back their power by simply not having children to be put into the system i know i havent written this very well and i have kind of gone off track but thete are so many levels to forced adoption and we need tk start alt the root and helping the mother first would be my main objective

Well spoken, and what you describe Mirrors what so many others have gone through at the hands of these cold hearted criminals. you would never believe that such people exist in todays world. people who have no problem making a profit from forcibly taking children from their loving parents. and these people have no problem sleeping at night. all they care about is their big detached houses, fancy cars and a nice fat bank account.
We have a real life cattle market for children in this country. its right out of a horror novel. but unfortunately its Real.

From my experience only I can categorically tell you that Social services are not your friend. They will NOT protect your child against sexual, mental or physical abuse. They are NOT a child protection agency. The abuse from social services who are trying to remove my children slowly and cruelly is intolerable. They lie and manipulate and are devious and sit well with psychopathic meglimaniac antics. They have laughed at judges, telling me that the judge will do what they say, dismissed police child protection advice and placed my children in direct harm, blaming me for that harm. I just cannot believe it. There is no human involved in child protection at government level in my experience. if you know anyone that is suffering with domestic or child abuse or sexual abuse. Please. Trust me. Tell them to tell nobody. Let it happen. Shut the front door and let it happen. The torture of the consequence of bravely fleeing and speaking out is that you are persecuted by bullies and pure evil. They like ripping the feathers from a broken winged bird and then throwing that wounded bird and its chicks to the cats to play with while the perpetrator watches and silently and with an evil stillness, laughs at your pain. Hold children in your prayers but please do not advise people with children to flee from abusive partners. This country does not tolerate abuse. It does not accept it. It preys upon it. It enjoys the pain. Government “child protection agencies” just remove the victim and leave the children in vulnerable danger, covering up corruption. If you were an elephant mother with baby elephants trapped in wire, don’t trumpet. The lions will hear you and close in for the kill. It is inhuman. 😓

Some very bold words here but its based on facts. this is whats going on.
Justice Pauffley of the high court exposed the secret deals going on between Social workers,Managers and Judges. she also stated that this is widespread across the country. Parents are told nothing about these back room meetings and its hard to say if the parents’ Solicitors/Barristers were part of it. if they were then shurely they are all breaking the law with what they were party to. especially when they all lined their pockets from Tax payers money Via the Legal Aid system knowing full well the parents were not getting a fair Hearing but chose to sit back and do nothing.

No big surprise there. Along with Michael gove these are the very people who wanted the process speeding up so that children could be fast tracked through into adoption more than ever before. and all just to save money on the Fostering bill instead of tackling the rise in dishonest Social workers who are directly responsible for the huge numbers of children taken for trivial reasons. they are sub humans and all i can say is that if there was ever an Extraterrestrial landing to help us with this world all those despicable people will be put straight behind Bars where they belong. including the judges!
Our current Family court system is operating in breach of human rights and a lot of the time unlawfully but the system is so cunningly designed to shield and protect all involved from any form of scrutiny or accountability. it is an Evil Draconian system that does not work and needs to be rebuilt for the 21st century Asap.

Hi southampton ss took my newborn son and my daughter AFTER I left their father who put me through domestic violence,their reason was incase of future emotional abuse,in court my solicitor failed to protect them and fight my case,social services lied through their teeth and judge took their word without evidence,leading up to my court date I had completed every course,appointment and even asked a social worker to put us in a refuge so I knew wed be safe no help was there their only interest was my unborn baby and minute he was born they sent me a court date.on the day of court I found out they were going for my daughter whom they needed in order to get my son not because she was in any type of danger! I was treated like a criminal when my children were happy and loved with all mu heart but my solicitor was paid to lose my case and my babies now live with my expartners cousin in next road to where he lives! I see my babies every 3 weeks and every contact my daughter asks to come home but ss are pushing for a guardianship order and not even considering the trauma my babies are going through wanting to be with me at home infact they couldn’t care less as they have caused them the biggest trauma by taking them from a safe loving home where they have 3 older brothers who are also traumatized over their brother and sister not being with them and I don’t know where I can find a decent solicitor that will fight this and get my babies home.the social workers should be held on charges for abusing families and lying to get results the whole justice system is a joke and our prime minister as so much is wrong with my case and I have wrote to countless people in power to help me and review my case and got nowhere

Hello all from [edited] in Cheshire.
I had my four children removed by the SS in [edited] 2012 for marking my eldest child by grabbing hold of him by the shoulders and trying to stop him from throwing a chair and getting him ready for school on time. This led to a year long court case which we neither opposed nor consented to. We were threatened with adoption but we were lucky in court if you can call it that and the four children went for long term foster care , we are grateful that we get contact with them seven times a year in a contact centre for an hour and a half recently increased to two and a half hours with no reason given but like I said were grateful for that.
Our eldest is about to be moved to his seventh placement and is also taking Ritalin which we only found out about at the end of May but no diagnosis to our knowledge.
We’ve made lifestyle changes and still they won’t do an up to date assessment of us or move the contact away from the surreal environment of a contact centre. The reviewing officer seems to control all the eleven social workers the children have had. The reviewing officer always says if we want our children back we will have to take it back to court knowing full well we can’t afford that and also the LA will never support the return of our children. I made a mistake and assaulted my son but with no intent which I pleaded guilty to does this warrant the complete destruction of a loving family and extended family!
The same local authority deem us fit to look after our beautiful twenty week old daughter but not even one of the other children, begging the question whats the real reason why they won’t even look at a phased return of the other children?
God bless all families who suffer the injustices of this draconian system.
My prayers go out to my children who have suffered so much since being removed from our care and still say they want to come home!

your story sounds all so familiar and very similar to us. we lost 3 children back in Nov 2014 and our 10mth old baby was the target. the SS are aggressively destroying entire families just get one baby for the Adoption market. that suggests there must be some serious money exchanging hands when Social workers stick their necks out and fabricate case files to stop parents getting their children back.
it can only be described as a very lucrative black market in children.
how nobody has gone to jail i just dont know. Teflon Don springs to mind.
