GRATEFUL?
Should I be grateful
for cheap words
and empty wishes?
Parents are imaginary monsters in the Scandinavian welfare state. We cannot be trusted. The State knows best and loves our children better than we do.
Sara Høyrup | skribent
Jeg skriver fortællinger og journalistik (DJ). Jeg har udgivet en digtsamling om tab og skriver på en samling minifiktioner om fællesskaber. Jeg interviewer og redigerer en bog om statens totalitære indgreb i familier. Jeg dækkede Catalonien-konflikten for Magasinet Europa og andre danske medier. Jeg holder foredrag i hele Danmark og arrangerer studieture til Sydeuropa.

Parents under suspicion from the welfare state
FOBBED OFF
Oh how I detest
being fobbed off
with nonsensical well-wishing
and self-sufficient prayers
JUST LIKE PATRICIA
that is just like
my friend Patricia:
the one who ordered
an orphan a la carte
OH DENMARK
I do not self-identify
as desperate
powerless
and anti-system
SET TO SEA
when tears
turn into torrents
DRESSING UP
Dress up a kidnapping
as a matter of welfare
a case for social affairs
and the child services
IMAGINARY MONSTERS
DEBATE | It all goes to show that foreigners, women who cannot keep a man, and handicap producing people are unfit parents. No? Well, then maybe something is wrong with the alarm system and the response to its ringing. It might be that public authorities in Denmark act on the basis of prejudice and target the poor and the different, the ones who stand alone and those that are under immense pressure.
