Children from Polygamist Ranch Separated from Mothers

In the state of Texas, a total of 139 mothers and 416 children have been taken from a ploygamist ranch. Now the state of Texas has decided to keep the mothers from their children in order to have more honest interviews with the children. According to Marleigh Meisner, a spokesperson for Texas's Children's Protective Services, she believes that mothers may tell their children what to say when theyre being interviewed or influence the children to say or not say certain things about their home life on the ranch(GRACZYK). I personally agree with Texas's decision and hope that the children get appropriate care now that they are freed from the ranch. What are your thoughts on this article?
