Nutcracker (Social Services Family-splitting)

by Richard Lung

Overview

Social Service, that won't be refused, is mastery or nothing. My mothers Best Interest meeting (which its control freaks did not allow her to attend) wanted to include two (exorbitant) live-in care assessors. To say nothing of the rest of that army of anonymous administrators behind the scenes, this would have amassed eight professionals, all to prevent a poorly old lady, going back, with a live-in carer, to her own home, to live with her son and life-long companion of seventy years.
A top-heavy monolithic state is a hugely unproductive massing of honest-work-shy human resources, mighty in oppression and extortion, or capture and confiscation, of the small and helpless.
There used to be a rocking boulder, hundreds of tons in weight, with which you could crack a nut, splitting it open to extract the kernel. It was, in effect, a Nutcracker. Britains barbarian bureaucracy of family-splitters is also a Nutcracker, of sorts.
Our story was of an elderly mother imprisoned by social services. They are as infamous for taking away children from their parents, as parents from their children. Social services are not super-civilised, they are sub-civilised. They are akin to the predator who picks on the weak and helpless, the old and sick, or young and immature, as the easiest catch.
According to Louise Tickle, social services have been given a low threshold for splitting families, deemed unsuitable. This is traumatising families. You see the anguish, in innumerable Facebook protest groups against social services taking away their children. They are given the acronym, SS, which does not entirely miss the point. Because, social services are essentially a police state. I speak from experience of their lack of due process.
This booklet is an edited and abridged version of the personal journal, "Home Free (How the misery-makers of social services twice obstructed Mums home-coming with a live-in carer)". These are books 1 and 2, respectively, in the series: Family-splitting.
Number 3 is: "Talking To A Cat In The Moonlight (Poorly mind lovely mother)".

About the Author

My later years acknowledge the decisive benefit of the internet and the web in allowing me the possibility of publication, therefore giving the incentive to learn subjects to write about them.
I have been the author of the Democracy Science website since 1999. This combined scientific research with democratic reform.

While, from my youth, I acknowledge the intellectual debt that I owed a social science degree, while coming to radically disagree, even as a student, with its out-look and aims.

Whereas from middle age, I acknowledge how much I owed to the friendship of Dorothy Cowlin, largely the subject of my e-book, Dates and Dorothy. This is the second in a series of five books of my collected verse. Her letters to me, and my comments came out, in: Echoes of a Friend.....

Authors have played a big part in my life.
Years ago, two women independently asked me: Richard, don't you ever read anything but serious books?
But Dorothy was an author who influenced me personally, as well as from the written page. And that makes all the difference.

I have only become a book author myself, on retiring age, starting at stopping time!
