Big nanny government is here folks:
The Scottish Parliament is considering a controversial bill that would assign a social worker to every child born in the country in order to promote, support or safeguard the well-being of the child or young person.
The Children and Young People Bill, though well-intentioned, has many critics who believe it infringes too much on the personal nature of child-rearing. According to the bill, every child would be assigned a named person other than the parents, but unlike in the case of naming a godparent, the parents do not have a choice of opting not to have one.
Scottish Law May Require Social Workers To Be Assigned to All Children
