This is so horrible I had to put down my phone and go cuddle one of my cats. I couldn't picture locking any living thing in a drawer for THREE YEARS!?? I need some eye bleach.
I know it could never be fairly implemented... But there really should be a class or test or something people need to pass to be allowed to have kids
the irony is that versions of such a test are enforced in almost every country when a parent wants to adopt a child. the framework is in place already -- its scope just needs to be expanded.
although how much such a test would help avoid the scenario in OP, i don't know.
Even if it was enforceable, that would be a slippery slope akin to having to pass a test to vote.
Yeah... But imagine if you needed to know what a tarrif is before you could vote
Any "human" that feels ok with locking their kid in a drawer is not fit for society. That's not like forgetting to feed your dog one time.
Regardless of whether she was too mentally deficient to understand what she was doing or she consciously tortured this child. It's highly unlikely that someone could put a child, their own child, through that nightmare and all of a sudden turn a new leaf. 7 years is far far far too light of a sentence, this "mother" is a danger to others.
And yet I just watched a video of a dude who stole like 3 or 4 vehicles and put up a 1.5 hr cop chase. He endangered lives and severely hurt an officer... That got him 160 YEARS... Yet shit like this to an innocent kid gets 7 years. Fuckin wild.
Baby versus cop. I mean that's just some baby that was hurt. We're talking about an Officer of the Law here.
Yet somehow she is raising other children apparently normally. I don't know how you can seemingly love one of your children and then do this to another.
Jesus Christ.
If it existed and allowed this, why worship it? The thing that cemented my lack of belief in any diety was seeing my and dozens of other babies in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Shocked, usually dcyf takes them away for the weekend and makes the parent promise to take a prudent parenting class.
