The answer for an abandoned child is not a job requirement - it is the loving presence of a mentor.

The cynics see a slippery slope down every path; some see deeply religious people as untrustworthy - incapable of following regulations and perpetually plotting to proselytize their neighbor, while others see every civil servant as a regulator lacking restraint just waiting to emasculate America's religious institutions.
