I thought it might be good to post the reunification rules as they develop. This is what they were as of Fri.
In their negotiations, Walther set out rules: In order to take custody, FLDS parents or their designees must produce an affidavit and have themselves and their children photographed "at the time of taking possession of the child," according to the order.
Also, the children would not be allowed to leave the state for at least 90 days, and if the families move within Texas, the parents must notify the state seven working days prior to the relocation.
And if the children were to travel within state lines more than 60 miles from where they live, the state must be told at least 48 hours in advance.
The judge also would have required that state officials be allowed access to the YFZ Ranch "at any and all times necessary to the investigation" if any children are there. In addition, mothers and fathers must take parenting classes.
The children were taken from the YFZ Ranch in Eldorado between April 3-5. Residents of the ranch are members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which holds plural marriage as one of its sacred tenets.

The judge is saying she wants the agreement signed by the mothers before she issues the order to release the children. The FLDS attorneys are saying that will take too long.
Does anyone know what the plans are for the minor girls who are pregnant? Are they being returned to the compound? How about the boys who had broken bones? Teen girls who are nearing FLDS marriage guidelines? Children whose parents refuse to sign the agreement? And how about that one alleged mother who has refused to sign everything because of a criminal investigation, will her children be returned?
