care the child needs.
Child Protective Services
spokeswoman Marleigh Meis-
ner said Atkinson’s statement
does not mean that Lauren will
automatically be placed with
the Kavanaughs, but it does
speed up the placement
process.
“We are exploring the possi
bility of placing Lauren with the
Kavanaughs,” she said.
Lauren, now hospitalized at
Children’s Medical Center in
Dallas, is able to talk and walk,
but is still very ill, Meisner said.
Meanwhile, CPS has placed
five other children taken from
the home in foster care.
Barbara Atkinson and Ken
neth Ray Atkinson remained at
the Dallas County Jail on
Wednesday. Barbara was being
held in lieu of $100,000 bond.
Police said Kenneth Ray
Atkinson faces charges of pro
bation violation in Ellis Coun
ty and would not be released
on bond.
The Kavanaughs had
arranged for a private adoption
and took custody of Lauren at
birth on April 13, 1993.
Atkinson was a friend of the
second wife of Bill Kavanaugh’s
brother-in-law.
But soon afterward, Barbara
Atkinson, then known as Bar
bara Calhoun, demanded the
girl back.
The Kavanaughs were able to
retain exclusive rights to Lauren
for about nine months, but the
courts limited their contact
thereafter.
After eight months of judicial
struggles, a second judge or
dered the girl’s return to her
birth mother.
Bill Kavanaugh said his attor
ney had failed to permanently
terminate Atkinson’s parental
rights.

Carol Biedrzycki of the Texas
Ratepayers Organization to Save
Energy said consumers could do
several easy things to save ener
gy and keep costs down:
• Make sure existing air con
ditioning units are running
properly. Air conditioners are a
key source of energy consump
tion and expense in the hot
weather.
“It’s worth having somebody
come out and check,” she said.
• Move the thermostat high

because mental health officials
worried the children did not
have proper care.
“We found them at their
grandparents with their father,”
Hay said. “It was never assigned
because there was no abuse or
neglect.”
Cannon said the woman
called her husband home
Wednesday morning shortly
after calling police. He arrived
about the same time police of
ficers did but was kept out of
the home.
T he woman was led away in
handcuffs from the one-story
Spanish-style home in south
east Houston, not far from
NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
T he father is a computer spe
cialist at NASA.
