Dear All
I have experienced this CRB checks and at one time could have papered
the little room with all the certificates for the different things I was
involved in. Not just for working with children but with Vulnerable
Adults. (This covers anyone who finds themselves in a vulnerable
situation - fall and bruise your knee you become a vulnerable adult cut
your hand....)
Just remember the CRB check is only really valid on date of issue as it
only records things that have happened and been recorded ie
convictions. one day later and the picture could be very different.
If we want to bring childen up in a 100% risk free environment 100%
germfree maybe we should CRB check any person who wishes to have a baby
and then check parents very 3 years. If they fail any of these checksin
any way the children are removed into govt care. which should meet the
above levels of excellence.This will then only leave those that are not
parents to be checked. Well maybe we just check the whole population as
a matter of course all the time and the citizen will the have an ID
number that it login with (with retinal recognition) any time they have
any contact with children and if they are not of the correct standardd
then they will be a loud noise to alert the bystanding adults.
There has got to be a better way - how about trust in others. despite
the few sick people that are out there. most children who hve been
abused have been abused by family members - the recent cases of grooming
have been young girls who have many problems and the groomers have not
been people working with groups of young children. There have been
cases of children being groomed in chat rooms on the internet. The same
can be said for adults too these situation exist for them as well.
Maybe we start with respect and a caring attitude towards others - male
female children and less of the need to subjugate others
Thank you for reading this - I will now get back to my lacemaking

Hello Spiders,
This is really making us all think, isn't it!
When I went into the schools in which I taught lace-making, as an after-school
activity, there was always a teacher present, so they didn't think that a CRB
was necessary, as the teacher was always on the spot. (One of the teachers
even joined the class!) However, one of my children's private classes folded
because a friend (!) of one of the mothers asked if she had checked that I was
CRB checked. I wrote to my then MP who,
