I have 3 children going through this process, I suppose we're one of the lucky ones as their dad was allowed home in Dec (knock was sept) and he can take the children out alone if I think it's safe to do so. I find most of the scarring to my children was the knock and the terrible treatment they received from the police. My then 5 year old was told daddy is going to prison and now she wets the bed in fear that she's going to lose her dad. My 15 year old now has PTSD and has panic attacks whenever she sees police or even police cars. My children also overheard a policeman accuse me of having heroin on my bedside table that he wanted to test, this was just household dust!

I fully understand that for protection of the children in the images things need to be investigated as I can't imagine how them poor children or their parents must feel but whoes picking up the pieces of the damage done to my children? My children are completely innocent in all of this yet they was treated dreadfully buly people I raised them to believe would always help them.
