uhmm.. in my point of view i agree with u.. i mean if they accept the child as their own then they should have all parental rights unless they mistreat or discriminate with that child.. nd since he is too young as u said (4 years old) so he can merge well with his new parents.. nd if they are growing their child's hair for patka.. that means they are giving the family values to THEIR child just as every parent from every religion do??!!! nd especially he is too young for religion partition.. he needs love of his parents more than his religion stamp!!

sorry if i was rude or offensive bt thts my point of view..

A child of four knows nothing of religion. Many parents allow their child's hair to grow long naturally. There may be western cultural discrimination against long hair on a male child, but this is a cultural, not a religious, matter. It is the job of CFD to see that the child has a secure, loving home, that he/she is in no danger and that his/her needs are being met. I too do not agree with the decision being made here. The child can decide at any time later in life to keep hairs natural or cut them. This is a matter of priorities. The best environment and loving parenting are the top priorities.
