Teaching a child racial epithets isn’t a crime, but it can lead to your children being taken from you.

I in no way condone what those "parents" were doing, but its chilling that the child was taken away because the parents were teaching him to curse and use other foul language. Should someone investigate? Sure. But taking the kid away is just condoning the "state as parent" culture that is developing in this country, where the state has more power to take kids away from parents.

Usually when child services intervenes, it is not with the intent to take the child permanently. The parents may have to undergo some training or councelling though, which is probably for the best.

I wonder what MSNBC would say about giving the kid to the Romney family.
