The NSPCC: anti-child

Sometimes It's Peaceful has done an exhaustive three part posting on the NSPCC. It's not a pretty sight.

NSPCC part 1: anti HE?

NSPCC part 2: anti family?

NSPCC Part 3: anti child?

Really, people have to stop giving money to the NSPCC. They are not a force for good.

They are absolute parasites who must be vanquished.

I was reading a book by an Irishwoman the other day and the NSPCC has been ruining people's lives for a lot longer than some may realise. It goes back to 1950s Ireland, at least.

They are a political organisation that uses the scourge of child abuse to further their own ambitions. Therefore, they are the lowest of the low. NSPCC delenda est.

What's the book Paul?

'Childhood Interrupted' by Kathleen O'Malley. It's basically about her as a little girl who was raped by a neighbour and was essentially abducted from her mother by the NSPCC and spent years in a Catholic industrial school where she endured horrendous treatment and brainwashing from the nuns. Fortunately she got her life together and is now a judge..

If you've seen the film The Magdalene Sisters imagine that but basically for children.

Thanks for posting this invaluable series. I've linked to it in my latest blog post. I'm starting to seriously mistrust every charity that says it is "doing it for the kids".
