KAREN DE COSTER SENDS THIS REMINDER OF WHAT A FREE COUNTRY WE LIVE IN:

"We have legal custody of the children and we will do with them as we see fit," DSS worker Susan Etscovitz told the Bryants in their Gale Street home."They are minors and they do what we tell them to do." ...

Both sides agree that the children are in no way abused mentally, physically, sexually or emotionally, but legal custody of the children was taken from Kim and George Bryant in December 2001. The children will remain under the legal custody of DSS until their 16th birthdays.

The sad tale is all about homeschooling and standardized testing. And here I thought this sort of thing went out shortly after the state of Utah "assisted" the John Singer family with its homeschooling plans.
