    I agree. If those children were taken because of the names their parents
    gave them, then I think that is pathetic. Where does it stop? We don't
    like these names so we are taking the children. We don't like where you
    live so we are taking the children. We don't like where the children go
    to school so we are taking the children. We don't like how you dress
    them so we are taking the children. We don't like how you comb their
    hair so we are taking the children.

     

    I grew up not liking my middle name. I'm sure glad that wasn't the basis
    for making me a ward of the state. They better have some good reasons
    for doing such a drastic thing and I agree that there is absolutely
    nothing "delightful" about it.

    I can't say I take much delight in knowing children were separated from
    their parents. Especially children, no matter how objectionable I find
    there names, who seem to have been well fed, well-treated and
    well-loved. There may have been a good reason for it but so far no news
    article has given that reason.

     

    The children may be better off in the long run, we have no way to know,
    but it does strike me more as tragic than delightful. I do not believe
    there are ever any winners when children are torn from their homes and
    moved into the NJ Child Services System.

     

    Perhaps you did not mean for your comment to sound as flippant as I'm
    taking it? I certainly hope so!
