\"Mr.DALLAS<\/b> \u2013 Four of seven children who were forcibly removed from their home in Texas have now been returned to their parents after the Christian couple spent two months battling the government in court over their right to homeschool.<\/p>\n

Trevor and Christina Tutt of Dallas have several years of experience helping at-risk children through both CPS foster care and the ministry Safe Families. In addition to five biological children (three of whom are now grown and living outside their home), the Tutts have three adopted children and are in the process of adopting another child.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe very much want God to bring our new children, the children that He wants to be in our family, so we are open to whatever children He sends,\u201d Mrs. Tutt told Examiner.com<\/i> in late 2011. \u201cBecause of our experience with our children, we are specially equipped to handle children with special needs. In fact, we look for children with those special needs because there are so many children out there languishing in foster care because people don\u2019t want to adopt a child who has extra challenges. It isn\u2019t for everyone, but it is definitely for us!\u201d Click here<\/a> to continue reading.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
