If there are no men in the vicinity interested in marrying the girls, then where is the threat, exactly? Put them in a dormitory atmosphere with guards at the door, if need be, but keep the children with their parents!

Dr. Phil did another episode about it today, and was talking about how upwards of 75% of foster children end up in jail or on the streets (something like that), and he mentioned the same thing--that these children need to be kept with and/or returned to their parents as soon as possible. I didn't see/hear the whole show.
It does not make sense to me. They can take the kids under "protection" and it's legal. But they can't take all the men because they are suspects and they have "rights" that the women and children don't. It's just messed up huh?
