It’s amazing how quickly people want to believe the worse about the government when no where in the article did it say they took the baby away from the mother. In fact it clearly stated the mother was also in state custody.

Exactly,
The way I understood it is that its paperwork and wording...the child and it’s mother are together in state protection.

And ya know something,
I in my RL see the state doing more good for at risk kids that bad, so this ‘The state is evil’ stuff is annoying.

But while it doesn't say that the baby was separated from the mother, it doesn't say it wasn't either. It certainly can be read to imply that the baby was taken.
