problems with blogger

I've been having problems with blogger, so have been unable to post, and edit my last post or add to it, very frustrating!
It seems I am not the only one however and hope to get it sorted fully soon. I've had so much I've wanted to post about.
Here is a link to send your MP an email via Action for Children's website calling for a reform in the law to help neglected children;

 Sky news reported a few days ago;

 "That a third of the public who had concerns about a child did not tell anyone - mainly because they did not think they had enough evidence - while 15% were worried of repercussions.

Some 14% of professionals have reported a rise in suspected child neglect over the past year and of these, nearly three-quarters believed a deterioration in parenting skills was a contributing factor to the increase.

Two-thirds believed greater poverty was to blame and more than half blamed family breakdowns."
The report is one of the most comprehensive reviews into child neglect; the second in an annual series by the University of Stirling. Six thousand members of the public, a range of professionals and 27 local authorities took part in the research.

Dame Clare Tickell, the charity's chief executive, said: "It is of grave concern that one in every 10 children could be suffering neglect.

"We know that early help has the potential to transform the lives of children and families, yet today's report tells us that the public aren't being given the know-how they need and professionals' best efforts are being hindered by stretched budgets and a lack of resources."

Action for Children wants the Government to introduce a website with a post code function to enable the public to seek the most appropriate help at the earliest opportunity for children they are worried about.

The charity is also asking the Government to meet its commitment to putting measures in place to support professionals to make decisions whether and when to intervene.

Shadow minister for children and young people, Lisa Nandy said: "It's shocking that so many more children are facing neglect and ill-treatment than this time last year. This report should act as a wake-up call."

Wouldn't it make sense to prevent as much as possible, this happening in the first place?
