goes back further than losing the rights to see her kids. Remember all her BS with Drew when Michael was in the hospital? Trying to get Drew made guardian of the kids. Not letting Michael have any contact with them while in the hospital. Or how she tried to take them and leave the Q Estate behind their father's back when her affair was exposed? Willow has been making horrible decisions where her kids are concerned for some time now, prior to any judge's ruling.
I'm 100% behind the idea of them being with a neutral party. Not Willow's family and definitely not Michael's. Let Liz have them for awhile since apparently her kids are MIA and no one's noticed.
