00PS, can you stand up right in a bunkbed?
God will surely expend his wrath on them 11 times over for what they have done.
In fact, the Air-Crib, Skinner's term for his version of the baby crib, was heated, cooled, had filtered air, allowed plenty of space to walk around in, and was much like a miniature version of a modern home. It was designed to make the baby more confident, more comfortable, less sick, less prone to cry, and so on. Reportedly it had some success in these goals.
The Gravelles have said a psychiatrist recommended they make the children sleep in the cages

As I said, I really am on the fence about that untill more information is available, a picture of the rooms these kids were in would put things in perspective,

Wow, lots of judgement being passed here.
The way it sounds to me is the 'cages' were more like a bunkbed/crib like thing. They were clean, painted, not locked.
I think it was for their own protection. I don't think these parents were abusing these kids at all.
We'll see though.

If that story is true, please provide some links to reports in the local press about it.
You still don't get it. 3 1/2 foot cages STACKED on eachother is no way to keep children, it's a way to keep monkeys.
Even a COP should know that.
