The parents are idiots. I find this a complicated one though...unless there is a very immediate danger for the child's life, should the government be allowed to just take a child away from parents? In socialist countries, there has been a tendency in history to take children away from parents. "The child belongs to the state, not to you."

There are widespread suspicions that babies were stolen from their parents by the Communist government shortly after birth and given away to families loyal to the regime. Today, a group of victims called "East Germany's stolen children" are calling for an official investigation and access to archives to find out what happened to their children - even though time is running out.

On the NZ child case Link I know Jacinda has literally nothing to do with this, but god is she ugly, and bad very very bad.
Spent two weeks in New Zealand and the OP is right Jacinda Arden has turned it into a Hellscape. The Kiwis want you to think it's this: But then you realize you have no freedom and Jacinda's control freaks want you "to stay on the trail" for your own "safety". And you realize that Jacinda's policies have turned this into a Hellscape of sulferous pits: The good news is there is plenty of parking:
Judoka a disgusting Jacinda high-heel licker confirmed. If you love her so much why don't you just marry the ugly hag, while you're at it y'all can raise and groom the young boy she recently abducted, and probably turn him into one of the country's best female athletes.
A followup. In Christchurch I did meet a Maori Women who wants to go to the UFC. My friend let slip that I was a Judo coach and the Maori Woman wanted me to coach her. Unfortunately not being in NZ I had to politiely decline. What I should've said was I can't coach you because even though you're oppressed minority that's not woke enough for me. If you can prove that you were born a biological male then let's talk.
It's safe around the world again. It turns out this evil authoritarian figure has no dictatorial desire. Jacinda Ardern to Resign as Prime Minister of New Zealand - The New York Times (nytimes.com) Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern of New Zealand said on Thursday that she would not seek re-election in the country’s election later this year. She said she would step down on Feb. 7. In a tearful announcement in the New Zealand city of Napier, where Ms. Ardern’s Labour Party was hosting its summer caucus retreat, she said she did not feel emotionally equipped to complete another term. “I believe that leading a country is the most privileged job anyone could ever have, but also one of the more challenging,” Ms. Ardern said. “You cannot and should not do it unless you have a full tank plus a bit in reserve for those unexpected challenges.” She added: “This has been the most fulfilling five and a half years of my life. I am leaving because with such a privileged job comes a big responsibility.” Labour lawmakers will elect a new leader of the party — and the country — in three days’ time, Ms. Ardern said. Ms. Ardern, 42, became prime minister in 2017 and won a historic re-election victory in 2020, largely on the strength of New Zealand’s response to Covid, which allowed residents to live a mostly normal life for much of the pandemic. But her party has since fallen sharply in the polls amid economic troubles and some highly publicized instances of violent crime. Labour has been facing fierce political headwinds ahead of the Oct. 14 election. For almost a year, the party has polled behind the center-right National Party, led by Christopher Luxon, a former aviation executive. As of December, support for Labour was at 33 percent, compared with 38 percent for the National Party. Still, Ms. Ardern has remained personally popular with the electorate. She has regularly outperformed Mr. Luxon in polls as most New Zealanders’ “preferred prime minister.” Ben Thomas, a political commentator and former press secretary for the National Party, said her resignation would come as a surprise for many New Zealanders and could spell disaster for the Labour Party. “She’s Labour’s number one political asset,” he said. “It would very much be a personal decision to step down, as opposed to a considered strategy about what would be best for Labour in the election.”
