How social services are paid bonuses to snatch babies for adoption

For a mother, there can be no greater horror than having a baby snatched away by the State at birth. The women to whom it has happened say their lives are ruined for ever - and goodness knows what longterm effect it has on the child. Most never recover from this trauma. Imagine a baby growing in your body for nine months, imagine going through the emotion of bringing it into the world, only to have social workers seize the newborn, sometimes within minutes of its first cry and often on the flimsiest of excuses. Yet this disturbing scenario is played out every day. The number of babies under one month old being taken into care for adoption is now running at almost four a day (a 300 per cent increase over a decade). In total, 75 children of all ages are being removed from their parents every week before being handed over to new families. Some of these may have been willingly given up for adoption, but critics of the Government's policy are convinced that the vast majority are taken by force. Time and again, the mothers say they are innocent of any wrongdoing. Of course, there are people who are not fit to be parents and it is the duty of any responsible State to protect their children. But over the five years since I began investigating the scandal of forced adoptions, I have found a deeply secretive system which is too often biased against basically decent families.
