I was thinking about this earlier and realised it shouldn't even get as far as only being picked up at school age. There's other agencies that will have dealt with this family from midwives as soon as the baby's are born, to health visitors that see the family in their own home, their G.P's. Then their are friends, neighbours and relatives ..... surely there can't just be some of us on accyweb that think it's very, very wrong.

I don't know what it is but the more I think about it the more I do actually think it has just been sensationalised for tv. I wish I'd seen the programme to have a more informed opinion.
