I agree about the "damages"--they were minimal. It could have been much worse. I care more about the damages to tender and naive psyches. I really can't wrap my head around why the children need to be completely separated from their mothers. How scary for them. If there are no men in the vicinity interested in marrying the girls, then where is the threat, exactly? Put them in a dormitory atmosphere with guards at the door, if need be, but keep the children with their parents!
Dr. Phil did another episode about it today, and was talking about how upwards of 75% of foster children end up in jail or on the streets (something like that), and he mentioned the same thing--that these children need to be kept with and/or returned to their parents as soon as possible. I didn't see/hear the whole show.
