The first story I read was about a store refusing to put the son's name on a birthday cake.
I did research on this case some time ago, but don't have the links. I was as incensed as everyone until I found out how dysfunctional the family really is. Despite what the parents are saying, there was a pattern of abuse/neglect between the parents and the kids. Child protective services had visited the home several times in the past. I think drugs were involved as well. If I recall, CPS has been prohibited from discussing the case, so anyone can write a story about what is happening, but the evidence of abuse is apparently being withheld.
There has been a lot of misreporting on the facts surrounding this family.
So the press wanted this to be a story about parents losing their kids for giving them an un-pc name, and they then proceeded to sweep all inconvenient details under the rug? Sounds familiar.
To be fair to 60 Minutes, tonight’s story was about a 10yr old boy shooting his Nazi father. 60 Minutes wanted so badly to conclude that the Nazi culture was responsible. It turned out that the father was an abusive alcholic loser.
Look, Nazisim is idiotic, but the state has no business telling parents what they can and can not teach their kids.
