Hello and welcome to conversations from the A and F podcast.
Allegations can be catastrophic for any family and in this episode I speak to adoptive parent Emily, she shares her families experience of an allegation investigation and the impact on them.
It’s a difficult story to listen to but it’s not uncommon for adoptive families to find themselves caught up in complex processes with police and local authorities safeguarding teams. As such it’s an important topic that Emily shines a light onto.
Here are the links that can offer advice and support
Emily is also happy to speak to anyone in terms of their experience or for advice and support you can email her here oneinfourfa@yahoo.com

I totally agree with you and as universal statements Emily’s views can’t be true always. However, the number of families like hers experiencing less than ideal situations doesn’t invalidate her views.

It’s an assumption for Emily to state there was no appreciation of trauma with the professionals involved in investigating a disclosure. Professionals really are damned if they do and damned if they don’t. Not all disclosures are unsubstantiated and that needs to be what is centered.
