Or how about two kids being kidnapped by police officers, driven around for three hours before being brought to the station, and only then was the parent notified. I'm sure that did a world of good for the kids. [1]

- DanBC 11y agoWhile both of those are completely unacceptable neither of them are people imprisoned and children taken away.

Play at Park Unsupervised (And Daughter In State Custody) [x] Imprisoned [x] Child taken away and placed into State Custody You also may not hear about these stories all the time - because instead of being "Free Range" parents the media report label it Child Neglect. I only know of a single site dedicated to "free range parent related news/issues" and a few sites here or there that essentially reprint the same story from said site if it gathered enough media attention on its own. So it's hard to find a lot of sources.
- DanBC 11y agoJail is not prison! Was she convicted of any crime? Did she get a sentence? The claim was that people go to prison and have their children taken away. You've shown some clearly unnaceptable cases but you haven't shown any cases where children have been removed from parents or where parents have been sent to prison.
