      This is craziness! What about the ghetto bitches that give birth and live in the projects on welfare? Why don’t those babies get taken away for their choice of lifestyle?

      When you go to the hospital shut your mouth and recover your strength.
      Besides, women have been birthing children well, forever just fine without the aid of a hospital.
      Get the child a SSAN, what are the chances he would use it.
      If his parents are worth a lick.

      This is awful. Unfortunately it happens all too often to parents who choose to live a more natural lifestyle

      They need to get a theme & follow it! You can’t get more “green” than living off grid, but that doesn’t make them happy either. Same ole. Same ole. Almighty dollar. And too much govt.

      Strange that this happened in Alaska. So many HAVE to live off the grid. And so many do. So strange and sad. With all the druggies parental rights being preserved? This is so strange.

      t did happen because they did not want to fit in with the stereo type bull$#%&!@*in society. More than likely it was some religious nut that did it to them.

      I know plenty of people who have gone farther and no one bothered them. And in the middle of bible land no less (unless it was Alaska… Alabama? And who uses Ala for state abbreviations anymore?)

      If it did happen there had to be something else going on the article failed to mention. Drug use, abuse, etc.

      Is there a difference between AL and AK? They must not of lived “off grid” enough for the system to know another potential piece of corporate cannon fodder was born, that’s why you need an AK (47) even in AL.

      They would have taken my newborn over my dead body and plenty of theirs as well. Why do people allow this?

      The day after he was born they took him. What about the mother breastfeeding? I know it’s not 100% needed since we have formula these days but breast milk is definitely healthier than formula. So he can be nutritionally deficient and that’s fine? I mean it’s about what best for this baby that was just brought into this world right? This couple minding their own business and refusing to live off the system, how dare they.
