The Two Systems Available in Child Welfare Contact Orders / Parental Rights & Responsibilities

** (Contact order is new terminology to replace access rights.)

There are two systems that are used in child welfare courts. There is the closed court, which is used to cajole and threaten guardians of children into complying with what a court wants you to do. There is nothing in this to protect children. You will be bullied and threatened in these rooms and this system, as I named it, is the Herd Management System - you are treated like a herd of cattle being processed through and you get another stamped sheet on you called an interlocutor, nothing dissimilar to an ASBO order. You will be threatened with various veiled threats such as contempt of court, a fine, or imprisonment, as you can read in Legal journal article below:

The Justice 1 committee allowed parents to be cajoled / threatened (each day I am sending my son to school to be educated and the school and my family unit instils education / teaching not to be caught up in the practise or promotion of threatening another human being, but the Justice 1 committee is condoning parents to be threatened. When I had my children I fed into no agreement to be cajoled / threatened.)

Further on in the report it describes the woman with a dull brain. (Being a guardian of children did not equal me having a dull brain. I find this statement grossly offensive.)

What I can’t understand in the above system / process in the document listed below issued on the Scottish Executive’s website, monitoring the children Scotland act 1995 categorically states matters in dispute (0cr r9.12) with the co-operation of the parties. (I have yet to see or hear of any one that was given this choice to co-operation. What I have experienced and observed is intimidation / threats to make me comply not co-operate.)

The article below was writing for the Journal Magazine of the Law Society of Scotland by family Lawyers, approved by the Justice One committee. Courts who will encourage, cajole or even threaten parents to comply with the terms of the court order. This article allows the solicitor to operate with intimidation and cajoling and this is the system that operates within the corridors of courts and peoples homes, so the sheriff very rarely has to issue these threats from the bench as it is done prior to entering the court room, as the acting solicitors will do the cut price discounts with the other solicitor in the corridors of these buildings discussing all your children details with no regard for there rights or data protected details.
