I would most def call docs in! Not only are they being controlling its seems to me its a case of mental abuse as well. Not letting a child eat until whole assessments are done......WTF...dont they know kids need food to fuel their brains if there tummies are empty their work will not be at their best. Are the other children allowed to eat before homework??

Filming for security is ok BUT the filming of a person without their CONSENT is illegal!!!!! It does not matter what the reason is. How is she going to feel if she happens to stumble across one of the cams one day??? I can pretty much guarantee she will flip out!

As for doc they wont contact the birth mother untill they are sure of whats going on the first steps are talking to the child and the childs school ect. If they think something is not right then they will do a surprise visit to her home.

I hope they get their act together before they mess this child up
