Petition

I have just signed the petition entitled Stop systematic removal of children by UK Social Services and thought you would be interested in adding your support. To read about the petition and to sign it just visit http://www.petitionthem.com/default.asp?sect=detail&pet=2006 There is also a forum where you can talk about this petition and of course many other worthy petitions that need your support. Overview of this petition: - Approximately 1 in 20 children have been taken into care, some adopted, at some point in their lives. Nearly 60,000 children are taken into care each year. That's the entire population of 100 primary schools. Each case costs the taxpayer an average of £70K in legal fees, many cost over £350K. There are other costs, costs that needlessly drain the resources of local authorities, central government and charities. Private children's homes charge up to '£7000 per week per child' and foster parents in Slough for example get '£400 per week per child' Children in care cost the taxpayer over £830 million pounds a year. That's an average of £2,500 per child, per week-more than four times what it would cost to send a child to Eton
