2. Why is it ignored?
Even now when it is in the spotlight.

From the same article:

"At the moment, the fate of the Eldorado children rests with the Texas Supreme Court, but every day foster care is prolonged, more damage is done. The fate of the 300,000 of other American children taken from their parents every year rests with all of us. The usual answers from the left, "more money" and "more training," won't fix this. The Eldorado children could have been put up in five-star hotels and the separation from their mothers still would have been devastating. No one says the solution to Guantánamo is better-trained guards."

The author is Richard Wexler, executive director of the http://www.nccpr.org/">National Coalition for Child Protection Reform, whose founder was on the board of the directors of the ACLU until she resigned over the FLDS issue because of the ACLU's weak stance.
