A mother from England just lost custody of her two little boys for an absurd reason: she allowed them to sleep in the parents’ bed.
Specifically, she lost custody because she continued to “ignore advice,” according to the Court of Justice. It seems that the woman was under the observation of social workers due to an injury that the woman’s older boy had. Then they examined both children and found bruises on their bodies.
Even though the judge was of the opinion that the children’s bruises were created by mistake, he still thought that they were caused because someone had used physical force with them.
Apparently, the children’s bruises appeared after the two children slept in their parents’ bed overnight. The social workers advised them not to allow the children to sleep with them anymore, but they would have ignored them.
The boys’ mother said that the bruises are from playing with each other, being boys they play more aggressively and hit each other, but the judge said that the version in which their mother treats them brutally is rather true.
The judge said he was convinced the mother loved her children and would not intentionally harm them, but at the same time said she was responsible for the children’s injuries and agreed with the social workers, saying they ignored the advice. to stop sleeping with the children, so he took custody of them.
The two boys were taken into state custody and placed for adoption. Of course, this case has caused a stir on social media, as people are horrified by the Court’s decision, saying that they do not see the connection between sleeping with their children and bruising.
Now we don’t know what to think. What do you think? They are said to be both physical signs of child abuse and behavioral. Have you ever encountered something like this?
