    She is President, Australian Human Rights Commission.
    I would have thought that she is remarkably unsuitable for that job.
    She clearly denied the human rights of her own child, a child that sorely needed her care and attention.
    If she is prepared to deny her own child, she is prepared to betray anything or anybody.
    What were the criteria for her appointment?
    Clearly human rights was NOT one them
    Appointed by Mr Rudd.



    This is a quotation from Wikipedia.


    "Triggs' third child, a daughter named Victoria, was born in 1984 with Edwards syndrome which left her profoundly disabled and with a short life expectancy. When Victoria was six months of age, Triggs and Clark arranged for Victoria to be primarily cared for by another family. Victoria eventually survived until the age of 21. When asked if she was bothered by the arrangement, Triggs replied "Yes, because you have child and you expect to look after her. But in the end I simply made the judgement that I would rather put my time into my other children and family, because I also never believed she would live to that age."
