[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 165763, member: 1991"] So why are they not going after the authors of those books? In Australia we do have freedom of speech, but incitement to violence and wrong-doing is generally dealt with. Any person advocating in print this sort of behaviour towards another individual, let alone a child, let alone AN INFANT, would find themselves investigated, their books removed from bookshop shelves and themselves being 'counselled' by various welfare authorities. The media here would tear tem to pieces. And that's just the authors of the books. This woman probably had no real understanding of what was acceptable and right. It's sad, but it does happen. However, anyone wanting to place children with her should have been able to easily identify her unsuitability and should, I feel, be equally culpable. Marg [/QUOTE]
