A colleague of mine has recently taken a homeless 10 year old child under her wing.
The kid it would seem has disappeared from wherever he came from and has several times escaped from social services to come back to the car park where he started.
My colleague has decided that the best thing she can do is to take care of him.
He is now livving in her house and seems to trust her.
I'm sure this isn't a wise move on her part, but regardless of the wisdom, I would like to know, if such a course of action is legal or not, surely you can't just go round taking kids into your home or can you??
Could William or anyone else in the know give me some advice on this??
