The women in the news do look different and speak differently. So what? I still wonder if the children who have been taken are in a better position? With so many homeless children on the street (possibly being sexually and physically abused), why would the Texas authorities think it more important to take children from homes where they are at least fed? Maybe it is people trying to feel good about themselves by 'saving' these children, maybe it is political, or maybe just misguided. If investigations are in order, do it, but to disrupt the lives of that many people when the rescuers have no long range plan?
