Welfare Of A Child
Posted by: DAVOhorn on 28 June 2004
I was working in my local health centre today.
A smartly dressed young mother with a very young baby also nicely attired turned up.
Anyway the mother presented the milk tokens for the free milk for the baby.
The milk tokens were not Kosher.
The reason i do not know, suffice to say thety were not going to be exchanged for milk.
Many sell the milk and milk tokens to pay for tobacco alcohol drugs etc, so my colleague is vigilant in this matter. If the milk tokens are not valid for whatever reason NO MILK>
Anyway the mother loses it and starts accusing my colleague of causing her baby to starve.
"What is my baby going to eat?"
A tin of baby milk powder is approx £6.00 the cost of 1.5 packets of fags or a couple of bottles of alcohol.
A pint of fresh milk is 40p approx.
Now who today who loved their child would not spend a little money on milk to feed their own child ?
I am judgemental in this , but is this the sort of person who should be a parent?
