Hindu children taken away from parents in New England

State faces suit over foster family placement

Imagine that the state took three children from an orthodox Jewish family and housed them with Christian foster families who brought them to church on Sundays and served them pork chops for dinner.

The state Division for Children Youth & Families has done just that, except that the three children are Hindu, according to a lawsuit their parents filed against the state earlier this month in U.S. District Court.
