“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

I Had to Write the Constitution Back to the People Who Forgot It

 ๐Ÿ“œ SWANK Dispatch: When Human Rights Must Be Petitioned to Protect Children from the State

๐Ÿ—“️ 15 July 2020

Filed Under: human rights petition, social work abuse, illegal medical examination, lawful homeschooling, systemic trauma, constitutional breach, public health endangerment, procedural failure, retaliation for complaints


“You have not treated us fairly. You have not protected our lives.
You have broken the law, and called it care.”

— A Mother Who Petitioned the Human Rights Commission with a Timeline Longer Than the Pandemic


In this ten-page letter to the Human Rights CommissionPolly Chromatic lays bare 3.5 years of sustained abuse by the Department of Social Development, escalating from unwanted visits to medical assault — all under the guise of safeguarding. With statutes cited, timelines presented, and health risks documented, this is not a complaint.
It is an indictment.


๐Ÿงพ I. The Legal Core

Section 17(6) of the Children (Care and Protection) Ordinance, 2015
States that parents must receive a written report of any investigation.

Status: Not once. Not ever.

Emergency Powers (COVID-19) Regulations, 2020
Restricted entry into private residences except under clear emergency or essential worker capacity, with ID.

Status: Breached on 26 March 2020.

Education Ordinance, 2009
Recognises homeschool as a valid educational path with Ministerial approval.

Status: Approval granted — then ignored by every other department.


⚠️ II. Documented Harms

  • Sexual assault of her sons during forced hospital exams in front of 9 adults (2017)

  • Repeated home invasions, including fence removal (2019)

  • Property defacement, neighbour violence, and threats

  • Medical instructions from a doctor contradicting UK NHS guidance

  • Emotional abuse, gaslighting, and repeated interruptions of homeschooling

All while suffering from severe eosinophilic asthma — a condition that makes every uninvited visit a potential death sentence.


๐Ÿ“… III. The Timeline of Lawbreaking

  • 2016–2020: Dozens of interventions, no reports

  • 2017: Approval to homeschool granted by Mark Garland

  • 2017–2020: Truancy threats continue regardless

  • 2020: COVID violations escalate with visits during lockdown

“They questioned my compost toilet.
They never questioned whether their actions were lawful.”


๐Ÿง  IV. Fundamental Rights Violated

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Right to Life

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Protection from Inhuman Treatment

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Right to Private and Family Life

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Protection of Religion, Conscience, and Health Standards

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Right to Education

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Protection from Discrimination

  • ๐Ÿ›‘ Lawful Administrative Action

This isn’t accidental.
This is a pattern of procedural contempt.



A Timeline of Harassment Dressed Up as Protection — Filed for the Record

 ๐Ÿ›‘ SWANK Petition: The Human Rights They Pretended Don’t Apply to Homeschooling Mothers

๐Ÿ—“️ 15 July 2020

Filed Under: human rights violations, emergency powers abuse, forced medical examinations, lawful homeschooling, child trauma, privacy breaches, misogynist oversight, procedural corruption


“I filed a curriculum. They sent police.”
— A Mother Whose Children Were Educated, Not Enrolled

On this solemn date, the 15th of July 2020, a ten-page petition was filed with the Human Rights Commission of the Turks and Caicos Islands by Polly Chromatic, a legally approved homeschooling mother, researcher, and writer — whose children were assaulted, her body medically endangered, and her home repeatedly violated under the grotesque excuse of “child welfare.”

Let us be precise.


⚖️ I. The Legal Right to Homeschool — Documented and Ignored

Permission was granted on 26 June 2017 by Mark Garland, yet the Department of Social Development—led by Ashley Adams, Jaala Kennedy, and Ashley Smith—refused to respect this approval.

• Curriculum: submitted yearly
• Degrees: provided (Bachelor + Master’s)
• Income: disclosed
• Communication: constant

Instead of de-escalation, they escalated surveillance. They questioned her about spanking. They challenged her religion. They dismantled her fence.


๐Ÿฅ II. Medical Assault and the Weaponisation of Hospitals

May 2017: Her sons were sexually abused during an examination at the National Hospital in Grand Turk. The room had nine adults. No privacy. The mother objected — they ignored her. The doctor told her to forcibly retract her children’s foreskin with lotion, a direct violation of UK NHS guidelines, which state:
“Never try to force your son’s foreskin back… it may be painful and damage the foreskin.”

No accountability followed.
Only more visits.


๐Ÿฆ  III. High-Risk Asthma, Emergency Laws Broken, No Excuse

Despite Emergency COVID Powers and her documented eosinophilic asthma, social workers entered her property against her express instructions on 26 March 2020.

The law:
❌ They were not essential workers.
❌ They had no authority to bypass the Emergency Powers.
❌ They endangered her life, knowingly.


๐Ÿงพ IV. Fundamental Rights Violated (as listed in the Constitution):

  • ๐Ÿ  Right to private and family life

  • ๐Ÿ“š Right to education

  • ⚖️ Right to lawful administrative action

  • ๐Ÿง  Freedom of conscience and belief

  • ๐Ÿ‘ฉ‍๐Ÿ‘ง Protection from inhuman treatment

  • ๐Ÿ“ข Freedom of expression

  • ♻️ Environmental beliefs and practice

She did not invent these rights.
They simply failed to respect them.


๐Ÿ“… V. The Timeline That Won’t Be Forgotten

This petition meticulously documented nearly four years of violations, with dozens of emailshospital visits, and unlawful property entries. It named names. Dates. Laws. Ordinances. Attachments.

It was not a cry for help.
It was a case file.
Bound in evidence. Sealed in truth. Ignored only by cowards.
