Oh, I agree the sentence was too light and I'm concerned about the custody issue. I guess one can just hope that the kids don't get any other life-threatening illnesses sometime between those 3 month check-ups.

I'm just boggled. By creating that mandate, aren't they saying that the court doesn't trust them? I guess the judge felt that breaking the family part was potentially worse than risking the that the parents would do something like that again.

There is some merit to that, but sometimes, speaking from having been that child, the best thing is removal.
