Make forced adoption a criminal offence

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

In 2019 they is a growing number of children being put up for adoption when families need the help and support off social services and the UK government. Its not right the children are pushed up for adoption they needs to be a law to change this and make it fair, let's stop forced adoption crisis
Family's needed more support and help from family and children services but they don't they do their assessments in very hard and difficult times.

Parent's don't get time to improve or get the help they need. Parents suffer long term mental health issues going through family courts and dealing with children's services and in some case parents committing suicide.

It's time we make forced adoption criminal offence by law and make better lives for our children and parents in the UK
