The Peroutkas transferred parental responsibilities for Dawn Hubbard to the State of Maryland on her 17th birthday, May 1, 1992, and Holly met the same fate on the day after Thanksgiving 1992, when she was 15. The sisters, now in their late 20s and living outside of Maryland, say they never wanted to be estranged from their mother and have tried without success to reconcile with her several times since being removed from the Peroutka household more than a decade ago.

Well now, that is very interesting.

So all the people in this thread trumpeting their superior priniciples are voting for a man who kicked his minor step daughters out of his house, got a restraining order against one of them, and spent the girl's SS checks from her dead father.

Yep, those superior principled folks can really be proud of themselves.

...and spent the girl's SS checks from her dead father.

Post the exact portion of the story where it says they spent the money on anything but the daughters (which is illegal!), or shut your slanderous mouth.
