You're probably right.  On the other hand, I think (know) it would be hard to live with rampant substance abuse and frequent child molestation.  Reserves are that bad for many children to this day.  That is our real failure.
Yeah, but no one is saying they should have stayed in abusive homes. The argument is that the government didn't provide the promised care and help to the foster parents to avoid divorcing these children entirely from their cultures and heritage, not to mention their rightful benefits as status Indians.
