The way this fic goes, the children (make that babies) are taken from their
parents and placed in the 'singles' villages. Is that right?

No, children.  Since Mousse and Shampoo were childhood associates, they 
at least get raised up to old enough to take their first martial arts 
classes before being taken away from their parents.  

Second, the married couples no longer practice martial arts? Doesn't seem
likely to me, given what they would have gone through before getting
hitched.
