30. But see, I don't "fear" losing this generation of FLDS kids
not when their lifestyle looks to have been perpetuated on some pretty serious crimes.

In fact beyond the legalities and onto intangibles, I believe it's probably pretty imperative to break the cycle frankly. The children need to be educated, and they need to understand why that's important. They need to understand that the "outside world" isn't Satan and that living your life paranoid about anyone who is not FLDS isn't healthy etc. There are a whole host of issues that are tangential to this cult and "losing" this generation of FLDS kids "out" of this cult is a good thing imho.

In no way shape or form can I associate that kind of removal with the NA removals which were done for far more insidious and ugly reasons than trying to break religious brainwashing.
