The report from the Children's Protection Center (BAC) highlights a troubling trend in Latvia where children are repeatedly separated from their families, indicating a potential inadequacy in the current support system. It calls for a thorough evaluation of how effectively assistance is provided to parents dealing with issues that lead to such separations, and how well children are supported immediately after being removed from their homes. The BAC advocates for initiatives that would enhance the likelihood of children returning to parental care after a separation.

Moreover, the report stresses the importance of assessing the availability and effectiveness of services offered to families following the restoration of parental rights. There is a concern that, without proper support, families may struggle to function effectively over the long term, which could perpetuate cycles of separation and reunification. The BAC aims to ensure that families can stabilize and thrive after regaining custody of their children, minimizing future risks of separation.

Finally, the Children's Protection Center raises alarms about the decision-making processes in the courts regarding children’s custody. The center urges that risk assessments and considerations of the best interests of the child must be conducted with a critical eye and a long-term view. The report implies that current decision-making practices might not sufficiently prioritize thorough evaluations, which is crucial for the well-being of children in sensitive situations such as these.
