JMO -:
As the FFC and MFC have now discovered ..... (because their 'old school' behavioural management was uncovered) .... their actions toward their fostered daughter results in being arrested as a criminal activity. To my understanding, modern Parents are educated about this.
We have no idea what FM was referencing when she said she was still going on about it.William Tyrrell’s foster mother acquitted of lying to the NSW Crime Commission
Woman had been accused of lying about whether she had ever struck a different child in her care with a wooden spoonwww.theguardian.com
"she's still going on about it" the woman is heard telling her husband in a later phone call intercepted by police.
If we consider the FFC's position and have sympathy for her like the judge instructs she is "living a night mare life" and under extreme stress.
How is it the FFC is not very sympathetic to her own adopted daughter. If she is heard later saying "she is still going on about it"
I would have thought after such an emotional episode that as a family you would want to move forward so that it never got to this extreme position again.
I feel the comments between her and her husband reveal that they were comfortable with that level of discipling.
I think I have a problem being empathetic to someone who can discount a child misbehaving and the resultant discipline because another child has come to stay and is acting different because of this new situation.
If she is so aware that the older girl is struggling with the arrival of a new foster daughter - she really is dealing with it in a way to inflame and alienate the older girl.
If we are asked to have sympathy for a 57year old FC, and she's sobbing and crying then who will have sympathy for the 10-year-old girl sobbing and pleading, who is 10 by the way, and also caught in this nightmare life. MO
Maybe what FM was referencing was revealed during the Hearing .... surely Magistrate Moody would have questioned it,
From the context, I think it means that later the same day the child is "still" talking about FFC having hit her with a wooden spoon. The pain, the visible injury, the injustice or the stupidity. But it might mean that FFC hit her for raising a forbidden topic, and the attack hasn't had any effect: she's still going on about it.
If the police believed his death wasn't accidental and FM had directly caused his death, I doubt they would leave the other foster children in her care, not once the alleged assault occurred. The children were said to be monitored but this would be done remotely and there would still be some risk involved. Imagine if one of those kids had been seriously harmed in a the months preceding their removal, police would have a lot to answer for. All IMO.
I call it context. The sequence of the sentences, then. The logic of 'beforehand . . . then . . . then . . . later'.
A breakdown may also happen when we have concealed something and are constantly keeping vigil to prevent it from being discovered, years of anticipation, lies, scrutiny and being held to account can take a toll. Obviously, I don't know what it would feel like, however, over the years I feel sure the question or statement about her being responsible for WT's disappearance has been put to her, does she fall apart even 8 years afterwards when questioned. I found her response to the NSWCC odd, about WT falling off the balcony. No cause I would have found him and I didn't find him?
Yes l read the article. The media chose to put those events in that order. It could very well be what happened but my point being we don’t know for certain what she is referencingI call it context. The sequence of the sentences, then. The logic of 'beforehand . . . then . . . then . . . later'.
The child can be heard threatening to call the police beforehand.
A woman is then heard telling the child to “stand up” three times.
“Where’d you put the wooden spoon?” the court heard a woman on the recording say.
The child then pleads, screams and cries, and is told to turn around and move her hands before smacking sounds are heard.
“She’s still going on about it,” the woman is heard telling her husband in a later phone call intercepted by police.

JMO – I don’t know what employment positions the FFC has held, and what self-development training she has had that could involve how to handle being questioned. As per the questioning extracts in the Media Article below, it is interesting to read how she has handled those questions/suggestions: BBM
I think she answers like an innocent person. Just my impression.
