Tanken med bloggen är att samla all information och artiklar löpande under en och samma plats. Bloggen kommer förhoppningsvis att kunna bli ett arkiv för dem som vill studera fallet eller en källa till information för anhöriga. Mitt personliga mål är att få ett slut på Johanssons tragiska situation och ett återförenande av familjen.
“This case is an absolute outrage,” the former social worker said. “From the taking of the child off a plane by uniformed police officers to the absurd visitation schedule and now the complete cessation of visits. The social workers in this case are letting their pride interfere with the best interests of this little boy. In Sweden the socialist mindset of the government is that it knows what’s best for kids—better than their own parents. And in the case where a family, like the Johanssons, may do things that are different, the government intervenes.”
The social worker continued, “What is normal? In whose opinion? Why should the government get to make this decision? The boy is being taken care of and not being harmed. The family had decided to move to India where the mother is from. What is wrong with this?”

The world’s largest home school advocacy organization, Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) has 87,000 member families in 36 countries. They have filed letters with Swedish authorities on Gotland (where the Johansson’s live), as well as with Swedish ambassadors and government ministers. J Michael Smith, president of HSLDA writes:
Our current information, if accurate, indicates that the Swedish authorities have seriously breached the Johansson family’s fundamental human rights. We understand that Swedish law permits parents to educate their children at home and that the local school board is responsible for overseeing the process of notification. However, it appears that in this case, the local school board ignored normal procedure, did not meet with the family to assist them in pursuing home education, and instead fined them and referred the matter to the local court.
Our information indicates that the court declared the fines to be unnecessary, and the judge did not prohibit the family from leaving Sweden although he knew that they were planning to relocate to India on or about June 25th, 2009. Despite the court and your agency’s knowledge and implied approval of the planned relocation, your agency seized Dominic, and it appears that the primary motivation was opposition to him being homeschooled.
