On the allegedly unlawful actions of the Jugendamt (Youth Welfare Office) in taking her children into care 

Petition addressed to: Petitionsausschuss des Europäischen Parlaments

The petitioner indicates that her daughter, a Russian national, was taken into care by the Jugendamt after seeking assistance from it regarding day-to-day problems. The child has now been returned to her mother. However, according to the petitioner, the period the child spent in institutional care has had a devastating effect on her and on the family as a whole. The petitioner sets out in detail the consequences of the incident, while alleging that the Jugendamt is still seeking to interfere in her family life.
