I don’t want to defend Sarah but I disagree that she must have been the one to stop contact with Isabelle’s real dad - he has had loads of opportunities to step in if he wanted to. The non situation being one of them - real dad could easily have got solicitors involved at that point, they would have had a bloody field day! Sadly it seems she has been let down by all “adults” that are supposed to raise her and look after her. I can’t imagine the mental health issues that child has, it’s really sad
Isabelle’s dad may have to solicters and pushed forward with court but we don’t know that. We have take things into consideration such as parental alienation. We’ve seen how manipulative, Chris, Sarah and groomer granny are and I think it’s in the ‘Isabelle’s going away’ video where Sarah being horrible about her dad to her. If that’s happening on camera god knows what’s happening off.
Another thing is the court will take Isabelle’s view in to account, they won’t force a then 12 year old to go for contact. They wouldn’t take away from Sarah and Chris either as long as the court can see she is well looked after, has a roof over her head, good schooling. She’s never lived with her dad so they wouldn’t take her away from what she’s unfortunately always known.
Also Chris was never convicted of grooming so in the eyes of the law he hasn’t done anything wrong. Plus I’m pretty sure they are on social service’s radar, there’s no way they have avoided that.
Sorry I know that was long winded but the reality is the court or social services won’t remove Isabelle or any of the other ingham children as they won’t meet the criteria.
