Embrace for comfort: The grandparents yesterday were distraught

Two young children are to be adopted by a gay couple, despite the protests of their grandparents.
The devastated grandparents were told they would never see the youngsters again unless they dropped their opposition.
The couple, who cannot be named, wanted to give the five-year-old boy and his four-year-old sister a loving home themselves. But they were ruled to be too old - at 46 and 59.
For two years they fought for their rights to care for the children, whose 26-year- old mother is a recovering heroin addict.
They agreed to an adoption only after they faced being financially crippled by legal bills.
The final blow came when they were told the children were going to a gay household, even though several heterosexual couples wanted them.
When the grandfather protested, he was told: 'You can either accept it, and there's a chance you'll see the children twice a year, or you can take that stance and never see them again.'
The man said last night: 'It breaks my heart to think that our grandchildren are being forced to grow up in an environment without a mother figure. We are not prejudiced, but I defy anyone to explain to us how this can be in their best interests.'
Social workers themselves have admitted that the little girl is 'more wary' of men than women.

You had better save the info, after adoption it is illegal for the 'papers to refer to the case.
In fact, after the adoption even the parents/grandparents will be unable to take any action....."protection of children" takes over.
They will drop all action so as to be able to see the children, and then they will not be able to see them anyway.
AND the social service department gets £3400.00 from the gov for placing children in care for adoption !
Win-Win for the Dept for SS (State Stasi).
Nobody cares for the grandparents.
Now you know why they (SS) are placing children in care from more middle class(ish) homes now.....easier to get adopted and a cash return....

We now live in a totalitarian state whose role model is nazi germany.
