For those who have been abused, definitely not. For those who haven't, I'm still leaning towards not returning them simply because the environment in which they would be raised (a compound belonging to this cult) would have a high enough probability of them being abused in the future that it would be warranted.

My thoughts exactly.  Just the fact these kids have to lead such ed up lives is enough for me to say no.  Foster care though sucks, but as of now it's a better alternative.

Unless the government can prove that each set of parents is unfit, then they should get their kids back.  Anything else would be a horrible misuse of state power.
