Make every effort to keep families together

More than 180 Indiana children per week are removed from their homes by the state. For an outsider to say which of those moves are justified and which are not would be a reach of absurd lengths.

Yet the broad picture painted by the high and rising figure does call into question the state's claim that it's doing all it can to keep troubled families intact. Moreover, it casts doubt on the progress of reform in child protection, a paramount priority of Gov. Mitch Daniels since his first election in 2004.
