How sad that these people don't understand that the state is acting in the best interests of their children.

These children are being scared for life, but 'big brother' knows best.

Dave,
Is it ok to have a sexual relationship with a girl under the age of 16? Is it ok for a 16 year old to have, at her age, 4 children? Is it ok for a 12 year old (according to documents found in the Temple search)to have a "spiritual marriage" to a man in his 30's or 40's?

A teenage girl with undeveloped brain and body should not be "married" or having children regardless of religion.

I would just like to say that those children are better off not being in that situation. And the mothers of those children who want them to return to the compound should be ashamed of themselves. I would never put my children in that kind of danger knowing that sort of thing is Illegal. I would never risk losing my children. those children need to be taught that what was happeing was wrong. this was a bunch of old men getting to be sick pigs having sex with younger girls and getting away with it by brainwashing them...... that this is what jesus wants. I may not know ALOT about the church and their beliefs, but I know enough that those children are better off especailly the lil girls. they should be able to marry for love not stand in a line waiting to be picked and then raped and forced to have children and take care of a man they dont love. And what about all those children who died???? did anyone watch the WE special, they went to the cementary that they had for the children and see how many graves their were?? I MOURN FOR THEM

also It was said in one of the reports I read they had a "bed" in their temple that was used to consummate their marriage how sick is that????
