Where native American children taken from there homes?

Presuming you mean Were Native American children taken from their homes, the answer is yes. In the continual effort to break the Indian's spirit, children were stolen from their families and sent to schools to learn "how to be civilized." There they were beaten for speaking their own lanquages, forced to wear white man's clothing and had their hair cut. They were taught that being Indian was a bad thing. Later on, and up to the 1980's Indian children were stolen and then adopted (usually, unknowingly) by whites who thought they were adopting Indian orphans.

They were moved to Reservations that were often a long way from their native land.
