The decision of a court to remove a baby from her 'stupid' mother is reprehensible and part of the knee-jerk fallout resulting from Baby P(eter)'s death. Social workers are playing it safe beyond all reason when they referred the case to the law courts, but the judge compounded it by backing them and delivering the child into care because the mother has an IQ of 70. Okay, so she may not be the best at spatial awareness and a raven might beat her at a logic puzzle, but there is no evidence that she was not a loving, caring parent who would riase the child to the bets of her abilities (which, incidentally, are rated far from debilitating, indeed, her capabilities are 'within the normal range'). The majority fo children put into care are unhappy and have children in their teens. But fear stalks the social services and this riduculous decison must be reversed and the child returned to its mother.
