From my understanding, having only read about this cult, the moms and kids live in dorms and lie about not knowing who the fathers are so they can collect state aid. (but god forbid the state get all up in their business... just pay for it all and butt out right?)

And what about all the extra boys? The ones who don't get to have multiple wives and dozens of children? They get kicked out of the community... dropped off on a street corner somewhere. I bet foster care sounds pretty darn good to them...

Not to mention all the kids born with Polygamist Down's...
