Children removed from Indian couple in Norway due to inappropriate behavor

[scrumpy]

I suspect we don't have the complete picture here.

For those who say their country their rules. Can you please point out these stupid rules you are talking about in the rule book.

I think there must be more to the story I doubt it was just hand feeding and sleeping with the child. Though yes Pediatricians do advise for your infant to sleep in a cradle and not with parents as that can be dangerous to the infant, the infant can be suffocated, squished, and possibly worse when sleeping. So there is that danger.



For all of you criticizing how Norwegians raise their children you better look at your citizenry first. Norway has one of the if not the highest human development index in the world. They have achieved a high level of civilization. They are a highly educated, peaceful, and advance society. For those blaming colonialism for western success, Norway never colonized any nation nor land abroad.

Please Norway doesn't need to be lectured by third world people.

The same country also produced Brevik.

Norway may be a prosperous, peaceful, first world country but by no means do they have every thing sorted out. People in Norway are as capable of screwing up as people anywhere else in the world.

Oh jeez. White European apologists everywhere on this forum.

It seems that there are a lot of victims of the overzealous child protection service in Norway. I found this page through a simple google search

Norway places a disproportionately large number of its children in foster care.

Are you really that high? You live in the white man's country, under his laws and fed through his grace. And you are lecturing others about it? Is this guy fo real. What is going on here, it's like a twilight zone.

Razpak- have you collected enough of weekly allowances to buy your ticket home yet? Pakistan needs your kind of intellect there.

You are an ***/..In fact calling you an *** is highly disrespectful towards all the ***** in the world...

White Man's country? Your country is not yours..Its "Red Indian" who can claim USA..All of you are Immigrants who were kicked out of Europe..Packed up in ships and sent out to sea to die...(Read American History)

 

[venu309]

The readers comments below the news item makes an interesting read. If you notice Europeans from various other countries of Europe are not agreeable to these Norwegian rules & are critical about them....so it seems that it is not a common rule or occurrence in the other European countries...so the flaw lies in Norwegian rule.

You can't have an infant sleeping in the same bed as two grown adults (mother and father in this case), it is harmful to the infant as the baby is fragile and can be physically harmed by the two adult bodies. An infant in that dangerous scenario can easily be squished and suffocated or inadvertently hit by the unconscious parents. There have been cases where infants that co-sleep with their parents aren't breathing the next morning due to accidents occuring at night.


I hope you people don't personally or have slept with your infants in the same bed as you have put your infant at risk with your ignorance and negligence, and in my opinion your infant should be taken from you to save the infants life.

The American Academy of Pediatricians (AAP) recognizes this distinction. It advises that infants should always sleep on their backs and on a firm surface, and on the issue of co-sleeping, recommends that "the baby should sleep in the same room as the parents, but not in the same bed (room-sharing without bed-sharing)." The idea is that room-sharing embraces the benefit of close monitoring of the baby but avoids any risk of a parent inadvertently rolling over on the child.

NPR.org » Should Babies Co-Sleep With Their Parents?


Don't try to be a Doctor okay? Follow Doctors advise this is standard procedure. Most likely the Norwegian authorities had previously advised the parents not to co-sleep with their infants and explained to them the dangers yet they must have ignored the advise.

Infants should sleep in separate beds, not sure about a 3 yr old though.

Remember Sweden is prosecuting Julius Assange of Wikileaks because he had sex with the girl while she was sleeping late at night consequently charged him with rape !!

 

[Nakki Nair]

We should probably start sending Norwegians to jail for not using their hands in the toilet

 

[Safriz]

So if parents go to Nude beach with children and children can see their parent's genitals and also genetals of strangers,its fine by Norwegian and many country's laws..Who wont criticize on this situation...But if a father sleeps with one his own one year old,he is blames of a hedous crime and his child taken aay?

 

[darkinsky]

wow, this is brutality, its a criminal law which should be immediately changed, taking away from parents till 18 is a torture on parents, till 18 children will forget who their parents were

That's cause Western parents are so unawares of their children that they might suffocate them. No proper parent would role onto his child without noticing. You can see the priorities of Western parents when they tell women to leave their purse next to their kid to make sure they don't leave the kid in the car, rather than vice versa...

You mean like Breivik?

I'm not even going to bother responding to that.

Mamata extends help to Indian couple in Norway

KOLKATA: Chief minister Mamata Banerjee has taken an active role to help the Indian couple, Sagarika and Anurup Bhattacharya, in Norway, whose children are in the custody of a Norwegian child care agency since May.

Her office has, in fact, got in touch with the external affairs ministry and she is personally keeping a tab on the developments of the case, a senior officer in the CM secretariat said.
The ministry of external affairs has asked the Indian embassy at Norway to help the Indian couple Anurup and Sagarika Bhattacharya, so that they can get back their children. The kids were taken away by the agency a Norwegian agency, on grounds that the couple failed to properly take care of them. Anurup works in Norway as a geoscientist since 2007.

Sagarika's parents, Shikha and Monotosh Chakraboty, had gone to Writers' Buildings last Wednesday to appeal to the chief minister Mamata Banerjee to take up the matter with the external affairs ministry.

Sagarika, however, is taken over by grief. "When can I get back my children?" This is the only question that haunts her.

Sagarika Bhattacharya whose children, Avigyan, 3, and Aishwarya, 1, are in had been under the custody of a Norwegian child care agency since May.

Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee

Sagarika, however, is inconsolable. The children, Avigyan, 3 and Aishwarya, 1, are now living placed with foster parents and Sagarika can only meet them only once in six months, that too for an hour. She met her children last on December 8. Her worst fear is that once her and her husband Anurup Bhattacharya's visas will end expire in February 2012, they might be forced to return to India without their children. She is even more traumatized with the fact that her children might be returned to her only after they turn 18, as per the rules in Norway. might Thus she is traumatic that the Norway's child care agency might not return her children till they turn 18 as per Norway rules.

"It is very difficult to console her from here over the telephone. She is weeping all the time and has becoming a mental patient suffering immense mental trauma," said Monotosh Chakraborty, Sagarika's father. Her mother Shikha was at a loss as she said "I do not know how to console her. How can a mother live on without her children? It is better to die," moans her mother Shikha.

Twenty-nine-year old Sagarika had earlier worked with AMRI as a junior manager after doing her masters in hospital management from IISWBM. "But she did not go for any job in Norway, as she wanted to devote her entire time for her two children," said Sagarika's father.

"We are hopeful that the Indian embassy will help and we will get back our grandchildren. But till now we have not seen much help," Manotosh said. He and his wife had earlier gone to Norway to get custody of their grand children, but that did not help.

Sagarika's parents, Shikha and Monotosh Chakraboty, had gone to Writers' Buildings last Wednesday to appeal to the CM to take up the matter with the external affairs ministry.

"The CM is trying her best so that we can get back our grandchildren", claimed Ajay and Krishna Bhattacharya, parents of Anurup. They too had gone to Norway to get the custody of their grandchildren. But the court in Norway is yet to decide on whom to give the custody of the children.
