Question the doctor, lose your child:
PARENTS are being threatened with having their children taken into care after questioning doctors’ diagnoses or objecting to their medical care.
John Hemming, a Liberal Democrat MP, who campaigns to stop injustices in the family court, said: “Very often care proceedings are used as retaliation by local authorities against ‘uppity’ people who question the system.”
Cases are emerging across the UK:
The mother of a 13-year-old girl who became partly paralysed after being given a cervical cancer vaccination says social workers have told her the child may be removed if she (the mother) continues to link her condition with the vaccination.
A couple had all six of their children removed from their care after they disputed the necessity of an invasive medical test on their eldest daughter. Doctors, who suspected she might have had a blood disease, called for social services to obtain an emergency protection order, although it was subsequently confirmed that she was not suffering from the condition. The parents were still considered unstable, and all their children were taken from them.
A single mother whose teenage son is terminally ill and confined to a wheelchair has been told he is to become the subject of a care order after she complained that her local authority’s failure to provide bathroom facilities for him has left her struggling to maintain sanitary standards.
Given the zest the left already has for weakening the bonds of family and undermining parental authority, this sort of thing is to be expected. The the most advanced leftists, parents are the worst roadblocks imaginable – they keep thinking they have all this worn out, moldy authority over their children and even think they have a right to impart their morals to the children (the impudence!). Couple this natural leftist tendency with leftist control over health care and this is what you get – threats to take away your children if you question the authorities decisions about them.
Always, always, always keep in mind that health care isn’t about health care – not to the left. Its all about control – they want us as their wards so they can remake us in to what they think of as good. Obamacare is sputtering right now, but its not dead – look for the Democrats to try and shove through something vague and then hope to just tack on amendments and regulations when no one is looking. They really will risk their political power on this – because they figure that even if they lose in 2010 and 2012, they’ll gain it all back once a majority of the American people are locked in to government health care.
Don’t for a moment give up the fight – until the Democrats are out of office, we must presume that their every move is to undermine our liberty and impose their socialist schemes upon us.
UPDATE: WSJ says Obama will endorse public plan.
