Grant Legal Right for Parents to Record All Interactions with Social Service

Petition Details

Legislate a clear legal right for parents to record all meetings, phone calls, and home visits with social services. This should ensure transparency, allow evidence to be used in proceedings, and prevent misrepresentation or manipulation of events.

Additional Information

Many parents report feeling powerless and misrepresented in interactions with social services. Recordings would provide accountability, support fair assessments, and protect both families and professionals. It may reduce wrongful child removals and rebuild trust in the system. Failings from social services can have devastating consequences, including loss of life.
