That was intended; this whole action is faulty; the true point lies not in the numbers but in the very fact that the existence of a pregnant teen in a family has never been used to remove all of the children from that family before, to our knowledge.
Remember that these remain allegations without proof and liberty should be deprived only after adjudication.
“Safekeeping” on a scale this size is unprecedented.
Quite the opposite-— if there is a pregnant teen in a family where there is suspicion of abuse or neglect, yes, all children will be removed. And honestly, the last time I saw that happen was in a case where Daddy had married Mama with three teenage daughters and proceeded to have a harem (mother complicit and actually helping restrain girls).
