      None of these parents have birth certificates.  The children need a DNA analysis so that paternity can be established.  These men will deny having more than one (legal) wife.  Technically, that is true.  The test will verify whose child is whose. 

    If the children were not removed into CPS custody, the mothers are free to move right back in with the abusers.  These mothers think they have done the right thing, both here on Earth and for the Hereafter.   

I agree with you too.  How would a little child feel to be yanked away from their parents late at night (according to the news report I heard) , removed also from their siblings & childhood friends and put with strangers who, to these children,  dress odd, act strange, and have no idea what their future will hold.  Can they return--  ever?  And we've all heard reports of foster parents abusing children.  I hope it doesn't happen in this case and that these strangers don't criticize their parents.  How devestating.  I think that Texas has really over reacted here.  Will the children be forced to wear clothing that they have been taught is immodest?  Will they have to go to schools where the regular children will point them out as oddballs?  This is such a bad mistake.  I'm so glad Dr Phil is going to keep an eye on this situation & I hope he can at least partially protect the worst abuses.  You know these kids have been deeply traumatized, as Dr. Phil pointed out.  So sad.
