what have they come up with apart
from this:
Tony Abbott and Bill Shorten have expressed sympathy for the children of foreign fighter Khaled Sharrouf, but won’t say whether they should be allowed to return to Australia.
Mr Abbott says he feels for the couple’s children.
“I suppose at one level, yes, but on the other hand, we have to appreciate the scale of the evil which has been practised here,” he told the Nine Network this morning.
The Opposition Leader, asked what should happen to Tara Nettleton and her five children after the likely death of Sharrouf in Iraq, said he was “particularly concerned about the children” who were victims of child abuse and would need counselling.
“I am particularly concerned about the children here — these children are victims of child abuse,” he told reporters in Canberra.
“Those shocking images, unimaginable images of a parent standing by their child in the middle of that war zone and those atrocities, I do not as a parent understand how on earth anyone, no matter how twisted their own views, would subject their children to that sort of trauma and that sort of child abuse.
“Also as a parent though I know that were these children to return they were going to need a lot of working through what they have seen and done. As a parent I wouldn’t feel comfortable with these children reinserting in a playground with my children or anyone else’s children. But I also recognise that the sins of the father should not be visited and treated as the sins of the children.
