Adolf Hitler Campbell, the Holland Township toddler with the unfortunate name, was removed from his parents custody by the state.
Authorities aren't saying why, but it raises this question: Is it child abuse to give your child such a horrible name? What do readers think?
Little Adolf, who is three, was removed along with his sisters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell.
There must have been some signs of physical abuse or neglect, since I doubt DYFS can parchute in just because mom and dad are neo-Nazis with awful judgement in baby names.
When I interviewed neighbors of the family last month, Sally Miller, who lives down the road from the Campbells, said they had trick-or-treated at her home (not dressed as storm troopers, or anything--just regular Halloween costumes).
Adolf's mom, Deborah Campbell, was pregnant at the time, and when Miller congratulated her, she joked about fighting a lot with her husband. Miller also said other neighbors had heard the couple arguing.
Miller didn't discover the boy's name until it made headlines.
But according to Fox News, Holland Township Police Sgt. John Harris said cops never saw any signs of abuse and, in fact, dad Heath Campbell seemed very good with his kids.
