Yes, I get the feeling I have been Ill Informed re: child services. Thankfully I have a very well informed friends list to set me to rights :)
have you read the full Bringing Them Home report? Or Robert Manne's "In Denial" in the Quarterly Essay series?
*blinks*
You know, it never occurred to me that people other than government ministers could read that sort of thing. And there it is, on the internet, for anyone to read.
Though *cough* as a rule I actually really suck at reading dry formal non-fiction over about a page. It caused me no end of trouble during my Phd. I've spent the last three weeks trying to get the energy to read a travel guide book. Still, I'll try to at least skim the introduction or something.
*start to read dedication* *feels sniffly* *decides to read the rest when I'm not at work*
As I expected, this post has largely highlighted my own ignorance rather than fixing anyone else's, but hey, that's still a good thing :)
Thanks for the resources! I'll add them to the post when I get to that section of my inbox.
