For Whose Own Good?

Comment: Ignore the sensationalism, just read the commentary---

Two 5-year-old boys who had been locked inside small roach infested cages for 4 months were discovered by authorities this week in Arizona. Their makeshift cage consisted of cribs wired together and sealed with plastic crates. The boys slept on a dirty mattress spattered with urine and feces and were fed through a small hole in the cage. The boys wore filthy pajamas and were covered in bedsores. Their parents confined the toddlers for 20 hours out of every day. Neither of the boys were toilet trained and they did not know how to speak. Their mother explained to police that the boys were placed in cages for their own protection. [Kuro5hin.org]
