I'm sure a lot of you have heard about "Baby Grace". The little girl whose body was stuffed in a storage bin that washed up on shore in Texas. I was reading the paper today and the little girl's 19 year old mother described to the police how her 2 year old died. This poor little girl was beaten with a belt, had her head held under water and THROWN across the room where she landed on the ceramic tile. If I was the cop/detective and she was telling me what happened I would want to throw her and her new husband across the room. I give law enforcement a lot of credit for keeping their composure and not hurting people like this. And WHY didn't the mom just leave the toddler with her dad? Why don't people like this just put their kids up for adoption if they don't want or love their child. I know we cannot understand it. Because to understand this behavior you have to think like them and I don't think like them.
I'm sorry to bring you down.

I saw something about the story on the news this morning. The poor girl did not deserve that. I feel horrible for her real father. I also do not understand how police keep their cool in a situation like that. I would have been so tempted to know the woman out cold.

I think people who kill, especially children, deserve to die in the same manner of their victims.

Wow I didn't hear anything about this and it makes my stomach turn. I was picturing my daughter when she was two and just couldn't imagine it. I was 21 when she was two and I was single. It was hard but I did my best. I had love and not much more but that kept us going. There is no excuse why this happened and if I was the cop I would have likely thrown up right on her. I am truly nauseous thinking about it. Freakin' sad!

It is sad. Her body was found in Texas. If I have the story right her grandmother in Ohio saw her picture (actually an artist drawing of what they thought she might look like because her body had began to decompose) on the news. The police named her "Baby Grace" because they had no ID. They were comparing her to missing children who matched her decription.
