When children suffer: the child welfare agency and its misjudgments

Date:

Three cases from the recent past: Two women had their children arbitrarily taken away by the child welfare agency, and a boy was made to suffer.

The drama of prominent lawyer Liane Hirschbrich continues. As the “Krone” reported, her triplets, born on October 8, were taken from her on Thursday.

Because she is a single mother, has a tough job and would therefore “certainly be overwhelmed” by caring for the babies – that is the youth care organization’s succinct explanation for this terrible decision.

Children separated from each other
The little ones are now – separated from each other – placed with crisis foster parents. During a meeting with authorities on Friday, the desperate mother was told she would not be allowed to briefly see her beloved children ‘in a supervised environment’ until December 28 at the earliest – and that if she ever had Sara, Caroline and Christian Back she could expect weekly checks at home by social workers and police officers.

“I am treated like a criminal,” says the experienced criminal lawyer, “while real perpetrators are not prosecuted. The executive branch should do a better job in prosecuting potential terrorists who abound in our country – and in protecting women from violent men.”

As is now becoming increasingly known, the measures against Hirschbrich appear to be the result of incorrect assessments by the youth care organization.

No intervention despite reports
In the end, demonstrable misunderstandings have arisen about the tragedy surrounding the almost tortured boy from Lower Austria, who was held hostage by his mother for months in 2022, barely given any food from her, continuously brutally beaten and locked in a dog crate. in the freezing cold – tied up, gagged and naked. And no, social workers did not acknowledge the boy’s suffering, even though one of his teachers and a doctor had reported suspected abuse of him.

Incredible – like the case of a Viennese woman whose three small children were taken away a year ago after she asked child welfare services for support.
