⚠️ Are you in #Europe? In #Germany? U have a child? Understand their system before you become a victim. Children, especially of immigrants are being seized by the Child Care breaking down families.
⚠️ A case where, just because a child simply narrated her dream of a comic character, she was seized and separated from her Turkish parents!
⚠️ Every extra child means more money! 1000s of personnel, teachers, lawyers, doctors, nurses, dormitory officials earn their living from this!!
⚠️ The Jugendamt (German child care) gets paid by the state according to the number of children it takes care of, and some Foster parents manipulate childcare issues for their own economic interests.
⚠️ The rate of seized foreign children is 3 times more than German children, since immigrant families are poorer & defenseless as they often cannot afford to hire a lawyer or demand their rights nor familiar with the conventions in the country, end up feeling lonely and helpless.
⚠️ Immigrant children are often registered as German citizens in the forms recorded after their seizure
⚠️ German Foster parents detach them from their parent's culture, language & religion.800+ euros are paid per child to them.
⚠️ This resolves demographic problem of Germany
⚠️ German laws prescribe Foster parents be chosen firstly among relatives, in case of no relative then to be selected from families belonging to same language & culture as child.
But this is not followed. Take the current case of Indian baby Ariha Shah. #SaveAriha
⚠️ Such inhumane practices continue in #Germany against children, immigrants and the innocents. Kindly review.
⚠️ Jugendamt is a German institution for Child protection. It has unrestricted power over families & can retrieve children from their parents without a court order, hinder the use of mother tongue, religious & cultural practices etc fad.lu/en/jugendamt-a…
⚠️There are several 100 complaints against Jugendamt.Cases exposing their activities; questionable behavior of German govt officials often leading to what is described as kidnapping of children, fueling a multimillion hugely profitable racket that has destroyed countless families
⚠️ Do watch this video to understand how the legal system in Germany works for Child Rights. It is worrisome and it has broken many families. Children are often entitled, but donot get their basic rights.

'Shree Vardhaman Shakrastav Stotra' is a collection of 273 Adjectives that emerged spontaneously from the heart of Shakrendra (Indra) Maharaja when he comes to know of Tirthankar's birth.
Sharing some interesting Adjectives in this #Thread 👇🏼
This stotra was virtually gifted by Shakrendra to Acharya Siddhasen Divakar Surishwarji in the 5th century CE for benefit of mankind. It was lost in the passage of time & rediscovered by Shri Chinubhai Ratilal Doshi from the Ancient Gyan Bhandar in Kavi #Jain Tirth, #Gujarat
