The only people I could see this affecting is good parents / carers of ill / disabled children who simply cannot cope any longer. Given the government's stated objective of protecting the most vulnerable then we should all sleep easy.

It is of course a vile suggestion which makes your sig ring ever more true.
However there is a simple way for the vulnerable children of Worcestershire to avoid any costs. Throw a brick through the council offices window and become a young offender. From the article:
"....the council will still pay for statutory child protection, adoption services and for services for young offenders and those involved in anti-social behaviour. "

If parenting is so bad that the kid needs taking into care, I don't think it is unreasonable for the family in question to make some contribution to the kid's upbringing, finances permitting.
If someone has made a lifestyle choice to have a child, why should the rest of us fund that child if they have the means to do so themselves but, for whatever reason, cannot?

Yeah, stupid child. Stupid, stupid child who had the temerity to be born. What a chancer that child must be. It must be punished.

I love this "lifestyle choice" bollox. To me a lifestyle choice involves whether to keep my hair short or grow it, or what type of car I'd like to drive. I certainly never made a lifestyle choice to spend two years wiping shit from my daughter's arse or milky spew off my newly dry-cleaned suit
