It is a tough situation to be in and there are so many children this is happening to. I hope that they can find a better life. It's a great blog but I would love to hear more about your opinion on the matter and what you think could be done to help these children. Great information though, and it sparks a lot of discussion.

One, children are being removed from their parents, Two it involves such a large number of kids and their families, and finally this situation causes people to question ours laws and even our own lifestyles. The most important question that needs to be answered is what is to be done with those children. I believe the best case scenario is all the children are successfully adopted into loving families and they grow up to be successful and happy. Sadly this outcome is not likely, as the court cases continue on for an unknown length of time, and the kids are subjected to experiences and media scrutiny no child should ever have to endure. This is an interesting story to cover; it makes you wonder how many more compounds like this one exist in our country. Hopefully you will follow up on this story so we can see what is to come of all these children. This is a touchy subject for many reasons.

I mean it was a hard life to begin with but separated from what you call home is a challenge. Also, I can't imagine how difficult it is to relocate all of those children and find a better situation for them. This story really makes me appreciate that I live in a good environment.
