Now parents need police checks to be with their own children

The other day I quoted a posting from the Civitas blog about a new report Frank Furedi has written for that think tank:
The dramatic escalation of child protection measures has succeeded in poisoning the relationship between the generations and creating an atmosphere of suspicion that actually increases the risks to children, according to a new study released today by Civitas.
Overstated?

You don't know the half of it.

Today's papers have been full of reports that a mother has been denied permission to travel to school with her own son because she has not had a Criminal Records Bureau check. Try the BBC version.

Barking. Just barking.
