Mr Parnell’s plea to Devon Sherwood
QUESTIONS
OF WHY
1. Why has the correct help never been given after
guidelines have recognised a need for help in dealing with what is to be
expected with hard to place sibling groups of children from the care system?
2. Why has it taken so long after repeated requests to
receive help that we are now in this situation that I am asking this question “Why Is It Taking So Long” to get help with all issues relating to the adoption
of these two needy children, that it is with their emotional Well-being, that
remain paramount?
3. Why is it in trying to get help have I been banned
without justification from Council premises?
4. Why is it that
as a Council Tax paying resident can I not access certain council services in what is classed as every day normal family life. We should all
receive the standard of care required to our needs.
5. Why is it that the means tested benefits we receive
are taken away immorally to cover other things that are over and above what
them means tested benefits are meant to
cover, that is the basic standard costs of living for a family in our
circumstances? There shall be no financial gain from adoption that is in law
stated, and the enhancement that is paid
above the child premium should be disregarded.
ACTION
1. I REQUEST AN ASSESSMENT FOR MY FAMILY’S
ADOPTION SUPPORT NEEDS AND A FORMAL RESPONSE TO PAST FAILINGS
2. I WISH FOR A FORMAL RESPONSE TO THE ISSUES THAT I HAVE IDENTIFIED AND I WISH TO BE ADDRESSED
THROUGH A FORMAL PROCEDURE.
3. I WISH FOR
RESPONSE OF ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS OF WHY
