Fundamental LDS Wives

Watching Fox news this morning, the Fox and Friends team was interviewing three "wives" from the Fundamental LDS compound. All of three of the wives were emphatic about how happy they were and their children. They talked enthusiastically about their lifestyles and defended how they lived. However, when the questions came around about multiple wives, they all evaded those questions. One wife was asked how many wives her husband had, she at first did not "hear" the question. When it was repeated, she said, "I cant say at this time." That was the tack all of them took. They avoided discussing multiple wives. When asked about underage marriages, all three said the same thing - "I'm not aware of it." All three claimed they were of legal age when they married.
What this tells me is, these women know these multiple marriages are wrong, they know their living arrangements are not Biblical even by LDS standards.
I certainly feel sorry for these women who have (at least for a while) have lost their children. They were not allowed in the interview room with the interrogators. Part of me says, well, the officials don't want the moms influencing their children's answers. The cynic in me says the officials cant get the answers THEY want if the moms are there. I hope I'm wrong.
Even though these women apparently went into this lifestyle of their own free will, they all have a certain "robotness" (if that's a word) about them. They all dressed alike, wore their hair alike and spoke alike. The one on the left appeared to be the spokeswoman and the others only spoke when spoken to. Adults are free to make their own decisions. Twelve and thirteen year old "brides" (if that's really the case), are a whole nother story.
