Rejected petition: Fathers of removed children
Rejected on
I think fathers of children who have been removed by the local authority, should be assessed exactly the same as if a mother was to go on have more children with a new partner
This is to safe guard children from further upset, from a father who has previously had children removed from him and a former partner. As it stands the mother is the only one to have further assessments when they have more children
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We're not sure exactly what you mean by "fathers of removed children", and what safeguards you would like the Government to implement.
Both mothers and fathers are already assessed during child removal and care proceedings.
You may wish to create a new petition clearly outlining the specific measures you would like the Government to introduce in assessments.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
