Two Soviet generals reportedly told the families they could leave without payment, while officials denied any plan to scale back the tax.

Court cites parents' low IQ in taking children from them
In Des Moines Iowa the Iowa Supreme Court ruled that a mother with a low IQ cannot provide proper care for her twin daughters leading to immediate adoption for the McDonald children. The court also ordered five Alsager children from Des Moines placed for adoption, noting the situation was nearly identical. The rulings emphasize the need for the children to receive stimulation and stable care in foster or adoptive homes. The McDonalds had custody terminated as the court found the mother unable to meet the children’s needs despite support from the father. The Alsager case involved five children aged 1 to 10 with similar findings. Sandy Duncan and Bruce Scott Zachariades divorce finalized in Los Angeles after four years of marriage. Their assets were divided and no children were involved.
