To be fair , the reports do not mention blood , but what other reason would cause a family to do this?
Lets hope and pray for the kid

Quite correct BB, the blood issue is speculation at the moment.

Let us hope the little lad is O.K, despite his parents attempt to murder him for the sake of mad beliefs that they hold.
This child has a right to life, or at least the right to a chance at it, and the right to live to adulthood and decide what he wishes to believe. For those parents to impose their beliefs upon him, and to snuff out his life because of them is disgustingly immoral.
Parents do not have the right to make their children suicide bombers, or any other kind of "martyr".

Not only that : what about the other children if he dies and the parents are sent to jail?

This report does mention blood and Jehovah's Witnesses. Nothing confirmed yet though

The Hampshire Police have just had a Press Conference, they are concentrating on finding the poor kid, not on reasons why he was taken, so now is perhaps the time for us to wait and see what the reasons were, but if we can, then help by alerting freinds or relatives in France to be on alert.
Time is running out for this little boy, he needs expert medical care ASAP.

BBC Radio have a read a statement from (presumably) Bethel confirming the family are witnesses but that they are not aware of the reasons for the child being removed from hospital.
The BBC were also at pains to say that, at the moment, the motivation is not clear - it could just be they want to take the child away for a holiday. Even the police were not able to confirm if the child was a Ward of Court. If not then what the parents choose to do is still their right and no crime has been committed.
