"...the children, who are ages 1 to 14 and have conditions that included autism and fetal alcohol syndrome."

"The parents said the children, including some who had mental disorders, needed to be protected from each other, according to a search warrant on file at Norwalk Municipal Court."

"The cages were painted in bright, primary colors, with some rigged with alarms that would send a signal to the downstairs when a cage door was opened."

I may be playing devil's advocate here, and while it is wrong to make children sleep in cages, but reading those quotes above help put this all in perspective.

The kids were healthy, well dressed, polite, and were otherwise normal other then they sleep in a cage. I suppose that it would be less cruel to make them sleep on the floor?

And it does say that not all of them slept in cages, so that lends some credence to the quote saying that they kept some kids in cages for protection.

I don't want to say it's right what they did, but I will say that everyones reactions here seem to be way overblown.
