[quote=Anonymous]This is ridiculous. None of us know the details of the case or can even speak the language of most of the news reports. We also don't know anything about the reporting culture in Norway. Yet, we are all willing to take the word of the accused parents. The reports which have changed continuously. Firstly it was co sleeping, suddenly there was physical abuse and "the parents couldn't cope". In other words, WE DON'T KNOW JACK. Also, who exactly is criticizing Norway and their child protection system? Norway, this would be the country which ranks TOP in the world for quality of life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index .That's right. And according to UNICEF, out of the developed nations, it also ranks sixth for child welfare... behind Switzerland, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Spain and Finland. America is second from bottom. www.unicef-irc.org/publications/pdf/rc7_eng.pdf .Maybe in Norway, they actually DO something about child abuse, I don't know, call the police instead of pulling a Joe Pa, and that's why their kids do so much better.
