Youth welfare office scandal

How youth welfare offices exploit their power

The "Krone" reports on questionable child abductions have moved and outraged many readers. However, politicians continue to look the other way, even though thousands of fates are at stake. Parents who are desperately fighting to get their children back keep coming forward. Numerous files and shocking videos reveal scandalous conditions ...

Child abductions are unfortunately unavoidable in many cases. There are parents who are unable and/or unwilling to look after their children. But there are also many who are only in difficult situations for a limited time and are overwhelmed.

All too often, however, their children are taken away from them and never given back.
