I AM writing about the report concerning systematic abuse' of care in the community residents (LT, November 30).

My son is a client in one of these houses. He is one of the 83 people.

I was so shocked when I read the article which made it look like all these people were being abused, which is not true.

I can go and visit my son any time I want. I do not need to let them know I am coming. My son is so happy where he is. The care in this house is fantastic. All the staff give 100 per cent.

I also phone my son every day. I would like to let readers know that all the houses are not involved in this story.
