yeah, but I would assume they would have gone after the well owner, not threaten to take kids
Well at a best, you have people in a litigious society dealing with the bureaucracy they work within. I have a feeling everyone's terrified of being sued and/or losing their job, so they follow the letter of the law to cover their ass. I imagine somewhere, there is a flow chart- Is there heat? If no, take kids away. If yes, find another reason to take kids.
At worst, it's all part of a plan to keep people in line. Nothing will make people cow tail to authority like the thought/threat of losing their kids. Here you had a whole community of people without water afraid to say anything.
