With This I Disagree

Some months ago I had a post about this family in New Jersey that were naming their kids after Nazis.  The son’s name was Adolf Hitler Campbell and he has just celebrated his birthday at that time.  Well as has been said, “there is more to this story”.

Police and child protection officials removed a 3-year-old boy named for Adolf Hitler and his two younger sisters, whose names also have Nazi connotations, from their New Jersey home.

On Friday, officials from the New Jersey Division of Youth and Family Services took into protective custody Adolf Hitler Campbell, 3, and his younger sisters JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell, 1, and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, 8 months, according to the Holland Township Police Department.

Police, DYFS officials and a court spokeswoman declined to reveal the exact reasons the children were removed from their home, citing confidentiality, but a child protection official indicated it was not because of the children’s names.

The children and their parents, Heath and Deborah Campbell, made headlines last month when a ShopRite supermarket in Greenwich, N.J., refused to inscribe Adolf Hitler Campbell’s name on a cake for his third birthday.

“I cannot comment specifically on any family or case. I can’t even say if we’re dealing with a case,” said DYFS spokeswoman Kate Bernyk.

Ok now why I disagree–if there is no abuse or stuff like that, then this children should be left with their parents.  Personally, I think that they are morons for burdening their children with names that will haunt them in the future, but other than that the state has no place involving themselves in the family.

I said the same thing about the state of Texas and the polygamy thing and the children.  I may not agree with their beliefs or preactices, but that is theirs and I and the state have no place messing around with it.  If there is no abuse or such, then the state needs to just butt out.
