It's fine to say they shouldn't be allowed to have kids. But that really can't happen. Most of the time, you don't know about it until a kid gets seriously sick or dies.

The religious right will use the slippery slope argument if you make these people register or not allow them to make their kids into faith healers until a certain age.

What would you suggest?

I'd suggest that a first step is to start consistently treating such cases aa homicides and acting accordingly.
