      <description><![CDATA[Anonymous, Perth, Perth, Australia<p>I think the laws should be more specific in allowing removals, rather than letting departmental workers to be able to come into a home just because they suspect the child &quot;may&quot; come to harm. Where is the innocent until proven guilty? Its more of a take now ask questions, build cases later   mentality wich causes irrefutable long lasting trauma to both child and parent.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Rachel Grimshaw, Penrith, NSW, Australia<p>I believe they target young parents and abuse their lack of knowledge by tricking them and denying them their rights as parents. They twist words and make false allagations that you can not fight because you are deemed a bad parent by there text books. Children should not be removed if one particualr person who may have bias thinks that they could be harmed in the future. No one can predict the future. I want docs to be investigated.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mrs Jewely Piper, Central Coast, NSW, Australia<p>I want to see better monitoring of foster parents.  It is unnacceptable for children not to be protected by the Department of Community Services after removing them from their families.  This monitoring should not be carried out by non-government organisations who profit from the children being retained by their caregiver bases.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Miss Natasha Loury, Sydney, NSW, Australia<p>My children were taken in 2008, I have done everything DOCS asked of me, at first I did not really do all they asked as my stupid lawyer said I did not have to, yet he forgot to mention how much power they had over me, that I should jump when they say jump. I of course thought stupidly, &quot;I have done no wrong, and I can prove that what they say I did, never happened, I am the best mother I could be&quot; Well whoa how wrong even though the actual reason for removal never happened and that is clear..</p>]]></description>
