Newser) – New Jersey parents have lost custody of a son they named Adolf Hitler, as well as daughters Jocelynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie. The Appeals court ruling overturned a family court decision, and found that the parents suffer from unspecified physical and psychological disabilities. Heath and Deborah Campbell were victims of childhood abuse and neither "have received adequate treatment for their serious psychological conditions," the ruling stated. The parents "recklessly created a risk of serious injury to their children by failing to protect them from harm and failing to treat their disabilities," the judges ruled.

The only remote justification I see is that the husband is threatening with violence which in turn shouldve let to the husband being arrested, not the children being taken away.
Probably the only time in my life I can say "poor Hitler" and it not be a bad thing.
LOL - you think?found that the parents suffer from unspecified physical and psychological disabilities.
I wish we would stop thinking of breeding as a right. Some people SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BECOME PARENTS. The end.
Jim Hogg, a former governor of Texas, named his daughter Ima. And no, contrary to urban legend, she did not have a sister named Ura.
In Grand Rapids, Michigan, Bill Lear named his daughter Chanda.
And, of course, we all know about the guy who was named Mike Hunt. LOL.

I mean, I think it was stupid to name the kids that; but I think the reason they came up with to take the kids away was bull****.
I would take the kids away just because they called their kids that.
Honestly i think anyone who would name their kids that are simply ****ed in the head, and shouldn't be near kids at all.
Well, parents should be free to name their kids what they want. Even if it's stupid. Kids can always change their names later in life. It would suck, but then again so does life so I suppose we all get used to it on some level. This is a variety of thought control and I don't like it. Naming your kids something weird shouldn't be against the law. And the reason they came up with sounds to me like nothing more than bull****. I don't think the government had rightful say in this case.
While I think it was nuts to name the kids like that, I don't have enough details about the case to say whether they were really justified in taking the kids. It depends on the details, like this:
1. If the parents really are whackjobs (and I wouldn't be surprised), and really have mistreated the kids in ways that rise to the level of child abuse or child neglect, fine.
2. If, on the other hand, the children have been taken simply because the appellate court doesn't like neo-nazi's, or the child's names... I have a problem with that. We don't take people's children away because we despise the parent's ideology. That way lies tyranny.
Now, my sympathies lay with the kids here, and yeah they probably would be better off away from those neo-nazi wackos... but unless there's actual abuse or neglect, that isn't my call to make, nor is it yours, nor the courts.
Yup, and I should set the standards too. But it's not that way and you can't actually legislate against reproduction in that manner. While there are people who shouldn't reproduce (I call them business majors), there's nothing we can justly do about it.
I agree. THere is a second article linked to the first one that states that the kids were abused/neglected, and that the petition to remove them from custody did not include their names. I'm cool with them being taken out of this home based upon that.
It's our negativity and low expectation of humanity that has us afraid to even try.
