When I was growing up, my father, a diplomat, was posted to China. In 1949, the year the Communists came to power, he and my mother were put under house arrest.
After she was finally released, my mother returned to England with a Chinese woman and her two young children, who came to live with us. The woman's husband was in jail, betrayed by something their little girl had unwittingly said to the authorities.
When that man was released seven years later, he was a human wreck because he had been denounced by the word of his own child.
Changes to child neglect legislation would make 'emotional cruelty' a crime for the first time under what is being dubbed a 'Cinderella Law'. File picture
It seems incredible that this could happen in Britain, but the so-called 'Cinderella Law' proposed this week by the Government is driving us closer to that unthinkable situation.

Why this law against 'emotional cruelty' could turn every parent into a suspect
Lake Forest, CA (PRWEB) April 01, 2014
Bucking the recent downward home sales trend, more than 100 homes sold in just over 30 days at the first village of Baker Ranch, a new 2,380-home master-planned community created in partnership by Shea Homes and Toll Brothers, in Lake Forest, CA.
Planned for three villages encompassing neighborhoods of single-family detached homes, townhomes and other attached homes and apartments as well as numerous parks, a resort-style clubhouse, and additional recreational amenities, Baker Ranch was the first, and possibly only, master-planned community to open in Orange County this year. The grand opening of Baker Ranchs first six residential neighborhoods was conducted on February 8, with home sales commencing a week later. Nearly 10,000 homeshoppers toured the community during its grand opening. Since then, just over 100 homes have sold at this brand new community set on the largest undeveloped site within Lake Forest.
We are thrilled with the exceptionally strong sales response weve received at Baker Ranch, said Seth Ring, President of Toll Brothers Southern California Division. Each of the sales offices for our six currently-selling neighborhoods is receiving hundreds of homeshoppers each week and our traffic to http://www.LiveatBakerRanch.com is nearing 30,000 online visits. Clearly, Baker Ranch is the standout choice for singles, couples and families who desire a unique, recreational-oriented lifestyle in one of the regions most sought-after and scenic locations.
Currently, the homes at Baker Ranch are priced from the low $500,000s to over $1 million. Plus, now open at Baker Ranch is The Grove clubhouse with numerous resort-caliber amenities, pools, spas. Additional parks, pools, and play areas are also open; and the community is adjacent to 900 acres of open space with trails leading to regional wilderness parks. In addition, Baker Ranch residents pay NO MELLO ROOS so homeowners enjoy a lower cost of living compared to other Orange County planned communities.
From its location atop a broad mesa surrounded by foothills, Baker Ranch offers the perfect blend of view orientation and recreational/social amenities mixed with proximity to wide open spaces, miles of hiking and biking trails as well as quick and easy access to major employment centers, restaurants and shopping, said Bob Yoder, President of Shea Homes- Southern California Division. This winning combination is propelling home sales and is allowing us to release new phases of homes on a regular basis.
The Baker Ranch home tour starts at The Grove, a one-of-a-kind clubhouse complete with an expansive demonstration and party kitchen as well as an indoor event room with tall glass doors accessing an outdoor patio area with a bar and fireplace. The Grove also includes a resort-caliber lagoon swimming pool with spa and childrens splash area, covered poolside cabanas, and a separate quiet pool with spa and lounging area.
Also completed is The Arbors with its large pool and lounging area, covered cabanas, wading pool, fireplaces, and spa. Next door to The Arbors is a large neighborhood park with large turf area and climbing structure while just around the corner and down the street are Passage Park and Odyssey Park, two additional neighborhoods parks now open and featuring barbecues, picnic areas, swings, and kids climbing structures.
And, preparing for its official grand opening within the next few months is Baker Ranch Community Park with its lush ready for play athletic fields, a community green surrounded by picnic and grill pavilions, a childrens tot lot, a basketball court and an elaborate play structure with a climbing rock.
Ultimately, Baker Ranch is planned to also include a Central Linear Park in the heart of the community and the Borrego Linear Park, highlighted by a multi-user trail system which connects with the County of Orange regional trails network, leading to thousands of acres of open space at nearby Limestone Canyon and Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park. Even more neighborhood parks are expected to be created in the community so that residents are within just five minutes of places to play and socialize.

Shea Home-Toll Brothers Partnership = Sales Success As Homes Sales Top 100 In Just One Month at New 2,380-Home Baker ...
It's officially spring. We're deep into pothole season, which, like other holiday seasons, seems to grow longer every year. This pothole season could be the longest yet. Potholes are out of control. The Chicago Department of Transportation said last month that pothole complaints have tripled in the past year; and since New Year's Day alone, the city has filled more than 350,000 potholes. And because, according to CDOT, which assumes there are at least five unreported potholes for each reported pothole, their conservative estimate of the number of potholes remaining is, well, about 60,000 potholes.
At the very, very least.
Now, take into account that Chicago has merely 30 pothole crews, only a few of the which work weekends, and the pothole epidemic stemming from the apocalyptic winter of 2013-2014 should be resolved ... um, uh ...
But wait: In Chicago, one man can make a difference. And that man is Jim Bachor, professional artist, stay-at-home dad and former corporate branding executive. He has an elegant solution. Not an efficient solution.
But it looks terrific, and is pretty near genius. (Are you listening, MacArthur Foundation?)
About a year ago, Bachor began filling potholes with a clever 16-by-24-inch mosaic, modeled on the design of the official Chicago flag but with the word "Pothole" through the center.
Think functional graffiti. Or cheeky public art.
The mosaic slides into a pothole, Bachor cements it in place. Boom, done: A "Pothole" where a pothole sat.
So far, he's filled only four potholes, in the Mayfair and Jefferson Park neighborhoods, not far from his home on the Northwest Side. He said he has loose plans to do several more in the next several months. But not every pothole in the city. Partly that's because he does this on this own, with his own money; each mosaic costs about $50 in marble and materials. But also, Bachor, who reinvented himself as an artist in 2012 after being laid off from his job as creative director at a Chicago advertising firm, sells ironic, pop-culture mosaics of cereal boxes and junk food for $2,000 a piece; and this summer, his sprawling, elaborate mosaic for the CTA's Thorndale station will be installed, his first public art commission. "So, the potholes are literally filler."
And yet, if the city of Chicago needed a tasteful way of addressing its pothole problem, if it needed an official Chicago pothole patch, it could do worse than Jim Bachor's slightly satirical, civic-minded "Pothole."
