children in association astonishment outraged by von der Leyen
With and outrage, the association of former children in the attempt of the Federal Family Minister Ursula von der Leyen note of the decisions of the Bundestag's Committee on Petitions (26 November 2008) and the Bundestag (4 December 2008) to curtail or unduly.
Instead of a comprehensive work-up and redress the wrongs recognized even by the parliament wants to send children home to Minister von der Leyen, the previously planned national "round table" only one "of debate and investigation function.
to establishing a compensation fund should not be discussed once more, the ministry wants to exclude this from the outset categorically.
In the proposal presented by Mrs. von der Leyen approach the important coordinating and advisory body for former children in care is not provided.
Significant deviations are
to the decisions of the Bundestag is also in the composition of the "round table". The Ministry plans to members of the "round table" called arbitrarily. There are reports former children in care at the "round table" are represented by only two representatives. So we would not again be taken seriously, but pushed to the edge.
particularly incomprehensible to us that with the management of the "round table" of the "Association for Public and Private Welfare" should be mandated, in place of the Bundestag recommended for children and youth-organization AFET and the German Institute for Youth DIJUV and family law. These two organizations have presented has long been known and accepted approach to the work of the "round table".
said in a letter from the Parliamentary State Secretary in
Family Ministry, Hermann Kues, the Petitions Committee to the "German Association for Public and Private Welfare" was particularly appropriate "the task ahead to take over" because he was "like no other Association inextricably interwoven with the history of social work in Germany. " The latter is indeed the case, but including in a most inglorious way:
The German club was involved in a particular way in which educational theory and practice of home education of National Socialism and the war in the Federal Republic of Germany. Only in the 90s was known to be high for decades held in honor of former
Chairman, Mr Muthesius, in the Third Reich as the secretary for the central administration of the concentration camp for youth in Moringen Uckermark and in Lodz was responsible.
Ironically, this association is therefore the postwar history of
residential care, which was still marked by the Nazis and dyed, worked up for the victims! For us this is a travesty!
the association of former children in care is missing for this project the federal government
comprehension. And just as we lack the confidence that the German club would act in accordance with the decisions of the Bundestag for us.
