How is it that DOCS can say they received a phone call telling them that I failed to seek medical treatment for one of my children when I provide written proof from those medical professionals that my child had indeed attended. Was no fault of mine that there was no hospital speech therapist here, a private one costs approx $100 per visit and is not covered by medicare. I took my son to Cairns for surgery re his hearing, DOCS knew this yet they still lodged it in court on affidavits that I failed. Hell what more can I do. I am not his surgeon who says no more surgery til he is 10 or 11. He sees his appointments with orthodontists every year as scheduled. He is having as far as I know, I am told nothing, speech therapy with a speechy from the education department. Then it comes to the question, because I have up to 6 cans of alcohol within a fortnight period, I am deemed an alcoholic. Because I write online for my own blog, I am too consumed in my own life and unable to care for my children. The children are my life. I do not go out, have wild parties, even have any parties, do not have hordes of visitors if any at all. My time was spent going to the schools to help find a solution to the children's needs, home duties, writing, shopping for food, going to appointments. I dared to question the Innisfail office, I wont and don't kiss ass and this one team leader told me to my face, if I didn't sign an IPA then she would take my boys, said with a smile on her face and in front of a witness who walked out in disgust. My question was and always will be, how, do they get away with this kind of treatment?

I have no fear in showing who I am. DOCS hides behind the fact they are who they are. I have nothing to lose. I will fight for what is right, what is basic misleading to a magistrate and I will fight for justice, if it takes me a life time, I will fight.

dont hold your breath on the waiting darling......but you are right a full investigation is needed.....by independents from outside this country....the aboriginal people seem to be finally getting somewhere, from outside the country, and Rudd the dudd and co may have a lot of mud on their faces. The gov general has ignored many, so she ought to be ousted....letter to England is in order there...... these creeps have a serial behaviour, and its mates mates who are in these positions, as for the psychiatrists and psychologists...drs, welfare workers etc, they all ought to be stripped of their titles and accreditations.....this would leave positions for those who know what to do in a humane and proper manner......most are not qualified and/or are corrupted...justice dept and all

Hello Ms Tikky,

Read your posting with interest.
It would seem that docs have standard quotations they write to pad out their allegations against you. It is all subjective and do not have evidence to back up what they state. But hey, they are the law, so you have not a leg to stand on.
They do the same old tricks every time.
Why can't they go and find someone who really is abusing a child? I s'pose they have to justify the increase in funding and go after anyone and everyone.
Have you looked at altnews? there is some interesting postings there from NWO - he has a great mind and I always enjoy his posts.

Hi MsTikky

Sorry to have you here but glad you came when you have as it sounds like you still have your kids for now...

Now as thisisgood has stated the dept are the law, they can get an order today, well on a week day with no evidence and have your children removed the minute you refuse or deny issues brought to you...and you'll have a fight on your hands to get them back...ontop of having to file in affidavit material to be heard...take it from me I know!

So please MsTikky (I'm a born kiwi and love your user name...LOL)ask to have their concerns in writing forwarded onto you and the outcome of any investigations and assessments also in writing forwarded onto you as this is what you are obviously currently on. Tell them you need this for your lawyer regardless of having one. Get everything in writing...don't refuse help, but don't accept or sign anything either. You just ask for their concerns and outcomes of the investigations and assessments in writing to forward onto your solicitor and no more chatty chat with them...very good you had a witness, make sure always that's the case too!

Advise for all parents above when first involved with the department, never see them alone, tape record the meeting even by mobile if you have to and have up to 2 support/advocacy persons with you on the initial meeting. After that you ask to have every thing else in writing...they must give it to you, if you have to write and ask for this to be forwarded to you in writing. You play the dept according to the law and their safety practice manual, that's how you can beat them at their own game!

Hi,

I second what LovingMyKids has written here.
