parents stabbing children? what are we coming to?  

there are a lot of news that are like that here in my country, and i think it is becasue of poverty and drug addiction as well. if you are normal i dont think someone can really do something like this to their own flesh and blood. but if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs thats the time that they can do such r=crimes like this.

I have no idea. I guess some of them get tired of not being able to provide for their children. I think alot of them kill their children because they just cannot deal with them anymore. some people kill their children just because they are sick in the head themselves. This world is so sickening these. I am so scared of what the future holds for all of us people who try to live right. I think the law stinks and they should lock the parents away without a translator.

I was reading The Mail news paper and it said the mother was handcuffed and led away and the father was outside talking on the phone and he was not handcuffed but he went in a police car? It is very strange but it seems they where in trouble with there buisiness. I couldnt imagine how those medics felt finding those poor little souls. Which ever parent did this they should be hanged, I believe hanging should be brought back to the UK. They will plead insane to get away without life sentence, that will be terrible.

Yes, I also wonder where the world is going to! A few weeks ago a guy here killed his wife, young daughter, parents and an in-law with an axe! This was not all done in the spur of the momment either, as he had to travel to different places to do it! The guy looks quite normal and was quite successful by local standards too. I think he should have killed himself instead and left all those innocent people go on living! I guess it is kind of "easy" to kill somebody with a gun, you just stand there, point your gun and shoot, but an axe is something else, you are much closer to the victim, as it is a hands on affair! Yes, I also wonder about the sexes and the role of women in particular, as lately a couple of cases have surfaced where men have kept girls locked for years at a time, 24 years in one case and the guy was the girl's father! In both cases the guys looked quite normal and were successful, with a sports car and swimming pool.

oh God,,,poor children,,they should not have the children if they cannot take good care of them...i cannot believe there are such perants.

What goes on to make parents want to kill their own children, never mind actually do it

No doubt! Let alone a 6 MONTH OLD!! thats beyond disturbing...in fact I dont even have words for it its just SO sick ya know...And like you I'm very good at mentally going there when I read true crime BUT never in my wildest coudl I EVER put myself in the mindset of a child murderer ESPECIALLY when its the parent of that murdered child ya know..My kids can drive me batty at times but there is NO WAY IN HELL I coudl ever harm them let alone kill them..thats crazy madness..

i dont know what to say eskarena, but lot of children lost thier lives because of thier parents,maybe because they cannot already give them a real life but i know also it is not an answer,or the parent got a mental problem or using drugs that is the reason sometimes they cannot even realize what they do to thier family.

i agree with Stephcjh.....some people are just plain evil, some just don't want their kids any more...but for what ever reason they do it...they should be severely punished...it's terrible just thinking about it...just awful....

Actually it is unbelivable.But i also read a report that an indian couple abandoned there twins because ithey were girls.This unfortunate & shamful things occur & specilly here in India due to the need of male .I don't think such acts can be justified.Our society has many such shameful practices which needs to be ended.But it is really difficult.

Hi ESKARENA1, It is very difficult for us to understand the way others think, especially if they were raised in a different culture. Like you I cannot comprehend parents killing their own children, but it happens everywhere, and believe it or not these people usually try to justify what they do. Sometimes I wonder if crimes like this have really increased, or are we just hearing about more. The Police may have reasons for not releasing the names immediately, but I do know that all children are equally valuable. While we don't understand people like this, we do know that they have always been around. Blessings.
