The eleven-year-old showed from the start that he didn’t want to stay, said MA-11 spokeswoman Ingrid Pöschmann. In an unnoticed moment on Thursday followingnoon, the boy ran away.
“We do not lock children up and we are not allowed to hold them,” explained Pöschmann. This is not legally possible and does not make educational sense. Instead, an attempt is being made to start with discussions. The boy said he wanted to go to his father. The eleven-year-old and his father happened to be noticed by police officers on Wednesday evening. The two were stopped, the boy was handed over to MA 11 and the father was questioned and then released.
Child removal
A failed child pick-up the previous week led to the children’s disappearance. The mother may have had the children in her care for seven months despite the temporary withdrawal of custody. The 13-year-old, the eleven-year-old and a four-year-old did not have a structured daily routine or an adequate home suitable for children due to the mother’s excessive demands, and they only attended school irregularly, it was said. There were several reports of danger, and the 38-year-old also contacted the authorities herself for help.
“We have to check whether the four-year-old might possibly stay with his father,” said Pöschmann on Friday. The two fathers of the three children have not yet been available for child and youth welfare services. “It is important that the father works with us,” emphasized the MA-11 spokeswoman. Even if parents give their children who have lost weight the feeling that “it’s not good where you are now,” then the children cannot support that, she said regarding the disappearance of children from the crisis centers, which fortunately generally rarely happens.
