If you did not have enough time to cook soup for your children today, or did not make your bed in the morning, if you are late for work of if your basket is full of dirty laundry, please don`t think it is your personal business. All this can be a reason for the employees of the social services "to take you under the control", or even to withdraw your children from the family. And you should not be surprised that bodies defending the rights of juveniles are not interested at all in your alcoholic neighbor`s life who beats his kids and sends them to the store for vodka.

I will tell you the story of the three-month-old kid`s parents from Russia.The father lost his job. It seems nothing terrible because there are tough times in every family. But it was enough for the three-year-old boy and his sister to be taken away. And soon the baby died in the hospital where he was placed.

When the father lost his job, his family was "taken under the control" by local social services. The employees began to visit the apartment. They were checking the family living conditions and if the father had found a new job. One day mother went to the kindergarten for her older daughter and asked her sister to stay with the baby. At that moment a social service appeared and took away the baby. The reason they explained was that the baby had been left unattended. And in the evening social services came back for the older daughter.

Both children were placed in a city children`s hospital. Mother was not allowed to visit them. Mother asked to be let breastfeed her baby but the social services demanded a certificate from her that her husband had got a job and the the woman was not pregnant. It lasted for several days. A few days later the telephone rang and the investigator said that the boy died at night. When the parents came to the police for the death certificate, they read in it: "closed craniocerebral injury, сerebral edema because of the contact with a blunt object with an indefinite intention." The hospital doctors told that it was everything Ok with the boy at 1AM but in the morning he was found dead. The investigation by prosecution did not lead to anything. After the funeral and the scandal for all Russia, a three-year-old girl was given back to her parents. Unfortunately this case of "lawlessness" is not the only one.
