Are they perfect? No. But Oranga Tamariki cannot win if they do uplift children, and they cannot win if they don't. At the end of the day their concern isn't the welfare of the parent, it is only the welfare of the child. They are advocates of vulnerable children - they can do better for sure, but they are not the bad guys in the situation.

Horrible service. They do not have the child's best interests at heart and they happily strip a child away from the brand new mother. This is a dangerous company and feel that they should be moderated more
