Norwegian Minister of Children, Kjell Ingolf Ropstad, responded to the «isolation measure» scandal for children, for some as young as 7 years old. Ropstad states:
«That shouldn’t have happened. We believe that in most cases it would be best to live with other children. Only in the most severe cases, where necessary, exclusive measures should be used.»
Doesn’t Ropstad know that the isolation measure is used for some children who have just misbehaved, for example, looked at their laptop when told not to. Ropstad, is this one of the severe cases you are talking about?
Also, his statement is very telling where he states that it would be best to live with other children. Wouldn’t it be best for children to live with their families, unless in extreme and exceptional cases, they could come to serious harm?
We know that many children are taken away from their families in Norway, on lies and fabrication. Children are becoming sick and traumatised in this process, and their needs are totally overlooked. Children and their families are just not treated like human beings.
