What is going on in the world of DOCS?
Yes, I am talking about the Department Of Child Services.
In the past month NSW has seen three severe cases make headlines and I am sure there are many that have not been reported on.
The Daily Telegraph has reported on Dean Shillingsworth, a two year old boy who was found murdered and put in a suitcase, found floating in a pond. This poor boy was known to DOCS and after his paternal grandmother made several attempts to DOCS she was ignored. Look what happened!

The second case is a girl by the name of Shellay Ward. This beautiful seven yeard old girl who suffered from autism died from starvation and only weighed nine kilograms. To make this situation worse, The Daily Telegraph revealed to its readership this morning of the conditions Shellay was faced with. This included being surrounded by who own faeces. The old next door neighbours to this girl were concerned for her safety and was again their pleas were ignored. This poor girl was known to be confined to this squalid of a room and was often seen staring outside her window screaming for her mum and dad. She never attended school.It is believed only Mr Ward has been interviewed by police. His wife, has yet to be questioned by police in relation to her daughter's death.

And this, the third case has just come to light. A fourteen month old boy is on life support in Westmead's children hospital after apparently falling from his high chair. All that is known at this time is his mother a nineteen year old girl had been involved with a man in his thirties. The man is not known to be the childs biological father but is a convicted killer. This little boy is now fighting for his life and DOCS knew about this situation.
I feel sorry for any child that has been neglected or harmed. How can anyone do this? I really hope something can be done about this matter.
