1. At least she went AWOL for a good reason, unlike *

2. Whatever happens with the Army

it seems like the actual biological mother has some powerful arguments for regaining custody of her children.

4. how does that help these kids?

split them up from their siblings? that won't help anyone, and doesn't solve anything for the other five. (no comment about them being over their child production quota though.)

5. There is some thought that the biological mom may be a nutcase.

I don't have a link, but this was covered in the Colorado Springs "Gazette" a few days ago. And it implied she wasn't living with her second husband. She seems to have acquired a boyfriend. It just didn't sound like a stable, healthy situation for children. Also, there was mention of going to a fundy church to "repent", or something.
