    I just think of all the other situations in which children were taken by their parents such as the U.S. foster system or Canadian residential schools and they tend to churn out criminals. But hopefully you’re on the right side of things and this will help break the cycle.

      The obvious difference I’m seeing (at least based on the article) is that the US and Canadian systems were woefully underfunded and overwhelmed. Whereas this program has a small number of participants and seems fairly well supported. Time will tell I suppose.
