“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

They Didn’t Process It. So They Punished It.

I. You Had the Forms. You Had the Dates. You Just Wanted a Reason to Escalate.

This letter to Mr. Edgar Howell, Director of Education, was submitted not in rage — but in finality.

It followed:

  • Three years of documented, lawful homeschool notification

  • Repeated reports and educational summaries

  • No institutional response

  • And then — a safeguarding concern, issued not because the child was unseen, but because the parent was no longer submissive

You didn’t forget our correspondence.
You simply repackaged it as defiance.


II. When Compliance Becomes the Evidence Against You

This document:

  • Chronicles institutional non-response

  • Exposes the manipulation of attendance metrics

  • Details procedural breach disguised as concern

  • Names every step where silence was converted into threat

The logic was simple:

You sent reports.
They ignored them.
Then they used the absence of their own reply to allege neglect.

It wasn’t a safeguarding protocol.
It was a bureaucratic trap with child welfare as the bait.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because no lawful family should be threatened for preferring literacy over loyalty.
Because failing to reply to a parent does not constitute grounds for investigation.
Because this letter exists not to explain — but to document the quiet coup of procedural reversal.

Let the record show:

  • The Department was informed

  • The education was delivered

  • The silence was theirs

  • The escalation — was deliberate


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not permit paperwork failure to masquerade as child protection.
We do not accept that lawful autonomy must be apologised for.
We do not allow agencies to create emergencies from their own unread inboxes.

Let the record show:

We complied.
You failed to reply.
And then you called it neglect.

This isn’t a letter of concern.
It’s an archival indictment — with attachments.
