I couldn't read past the first few sentences of what those 2 evil women did to that child. My friend and I were talking about it yesterday, and I said they should get a " taste of their own medicine"…hopefully they will suffer in prison at the hands of other inmates.

Sorry to hear he has not. I hope he'll be patient for another day or two, until he really feels better, and not start picking up work again too soon.<br />I've not heard of that horrible case of the little boy, but every now and then, such terrible news pop up here as well. Like Sue said, it is easy to point at Social Servcices - but THEY are not responsible in the first place, it should be the parents or, if they are no longer around, those entrusted with the care of the child. <br />Like Mac n'Janet said, people don't have to have children, but if they do, they should give them all the love and care they can. For driving a car you need a license to prove that you're fit for road traffic; for so many other things, you need to take exams and have official permission - but anyone can have as many children as they want, nobody checks how fit they are to be parents.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-11805330712064356382016-06-01T19:51:44.472-07:002016-06-01T19:51:44.472-07:00Sorry to hear The Farmer is not feeling well again...Sorry to hear The Farmer is not feeling well again.<br />Hope he will be feeling better soon.<br /><br />cheers, parsnip and thehamishangryparsniphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236094827257446781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-65754680071670387442016-06-01T15:45:17.209-07:002016-06-01T15:45:17.209-07:00I will look out for that book as it seems to chime...I will look out for that book as it seems to chime with what I have just blogged about.

While you don't appear to agree, I hope that both women are afforded as much pain and suffering as they gave the child, while they are in prison.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.com
