The past few days up here there have been heartbreaking stories of abuse and neglect. The first story was a woman ( I use the term woman lightly here) LET her 3 children starve. 2 of them starved to DEATH. A 7 week old and 16 month old died of malnutrition and dehydration. The 2.5 year old was strong enough to survive longer, and was able to scrounge for the little found he survived on. Meanwhile this excuse for a mother... was in the apartment passed out drunk. Having lived in the apartment while her babies died of starvation. How could she? She lived with the smell of their decomposing bodies. They had to of screamed and begged for their mom... It breaks my heart these poor little kids. The house had more than enough food, unopened cans of formula... but she couldn't lay off the booze long enough. There were get the, 307 empty beer cans in her apartment!! She had these three babies she has a total of 7 children but lost custody of 4 prior to this. Too bad nothing was done to save the 2 boys who died.
The latest story. A mother and father passed out in their car with their 1 month old. Car running and passed out drunk in a parking lot. They awake long enough to drive to the lots driveway and pass out again!! Drunk and on Crack. More crack found in the car.
Heck as I am typing this on the news comes the latest an 8 month old and a 2.5 year old left at home alone. Police were called because of a screaming baby. What in the heck are these people thinking??? can anyone fill me in??
