At it should be expected that such a serious accusation always should result in an investigation.
But this is rarely the case!
Out of 89 cases where the foster child reported alleged abuse only 1 case ended in the termination of the status as foster parents. In many cases the report is filed and the archived.
That is not acceptable when taken into consideration that the state placed these children at the very foster families because the birth parents allegedly did a poor job as parents.
Sweden should demand higher standards and ask that all cases are investigated by the police. Only then would Sweden be able to claim that it as a country acts in the best interest of the children.
