FLDS 'Lost Boys' must leave St. George shelter

It would be great if a governmental agency is going to pull the rug out from under fragile people, that it would take responsibility for solving the problem it created. In this case, the town could have located suitable housing for these boys.

These boys are somewhat like foster kids being shuttled from home to home and feeling unwanted and uncared for by everyone.

For those that are truely boys....where are the foster homes.
For those who are men, time for a job.
Then again....where are the millions that Flora, Carolyn and Walls were going to use to help the ex-members.

Incredibly bad form, st. george, especially in light of the recent video made and shown on national television highlighting this facility and the fdls lost boys plight. I'm ashamed that the people representing the government agency in this town used political power to eliminate what I'm sure is a 'nuisance' for them as the first town outside of Colorado City.

It's very sad that this happens to these boys. The teaching of christ is about Love,forgiveness,and accepting people the way they are.

These young men are very intelligent. and have a bright future to look forward to.

Best Wishes.
