Outrageous story in the New York Daily News today.
Without warning or a by-your-leave, the government broke into the trailer (as well as the Commandment Honor The Father and Mother) of a good church-going family in Virginia (not even New York, BTW, where story's being reported) and hauled their two precious babies away from them!
What the coldhearted "burrocrats" don't understand is, EVERY CHILD IS DIFFERENT! Some need more attention, some need less. Some know what to do on their own, some don't. Some need Quiet Time in cages, others not so much.
But instead of asking questions, recommending pastoral counseling or even hearing the parents' side of it, the kids are traumatized as they're ripped from only home they've known and their parents are lead away in handcuffs??
No way, not here! And THANK THE GOOD LORD™ for that!

Virginia girl found eating herself in cage in mobile home; parents Brian and Shannon Gore charged
A young girl was found caged and attempting to eat herself in a mobile home in Virginia and cops say her parents are responsible.
The malnourished girl, believed to be either 5 or 6, was discovered in a crib that was converted into a makeshift cage after police arrived at the home in Gloucester County to investigate a burglary last week.
The girl's parents, Brian and Shannon Gore, were arrested and charged with felony child abuse. The mother was also charged with attempted capital murder.
"I've done this for 20 years and I've never seen anything like this in my life," Gloucester Sheriff's Maj. Darrell Warren said.
A month-old baby boy was also found in the home, but was in good condition. Both he and the older girl are now in the care of the county Department of Social Services.
The horrific find came as police investigated a robbery on April 17.
Authorities arrived at [the Gore's] mobile home in Gloucester with a search warrant when they made the shocking discovery.
The girl's blond-hair was matted and filled with knots. She wore only a diaper and t-shirt and was eating flakes of dried skin on her body. Brian Gore, 29, reportedly told police the girl had been kept in the cage since the summer.
"It was horrific. I don't know what else to say," Lt. Scott Little of the Sheriff's Department told Virginia's Daily Press on Friday.
"They seemed like nice people," neighbor Tim Hudnall told the newspaper. He noted he had seen the baby boy, but never saw a girl with the Gores in the six years they've been neighbors.
"He was really a nice guy," Brian Gore's ex-girlfriend, Sandy, told WTKR 3 News in Norfolk. "He went to church and everything."
