"The health of all three children significantly deteriorated" from what to what? Now days a person weighing 250 pounds thinks that a person maintaining their high school weight is suffering from malnutrition and neglect. Dehydration, wasn't water available? I would imagine that one health organization will protect another like doctors will never call another a quack but you know what they are thinking. I'm not saying that there wasn't a case here but anymore you see people jumping to foregone conclusions because of the news hype. Even kids getting a well deserved spanking or ginger rubbed on their teeth for swearing is considered cruel by some but many of us thank our parents for taking the time to give a bit of discipline when it was needed.
