A Four year old was killed by his parents (skull fracture) for sucking his thumb! (WhY, do I watch the news?? - Cause I wanna know and be up to date, I guess!)
Geesh, so very sad! Now, I wonder, I just wonder, why this poor little child was prone to suck his thumb?! I can just imagine what a nightmare his little life was living with these monsters..

I very seldom watch the news - there is never anything good on it. People like this make me sick and you are right, I'm sure this poor child has suffered for all it's life which is why he sucked his thumb, some sort of comfort he wasn't getting from his parents. I cry for these children and can only say at least now he's in a better place than with his parents.
I do believe that all children go to Heaven!

No matter how angry or frustrated a person might get, I can't imagine letting loose and hurting a child.. How cold must you be? (To be able to do that?)

When you hear stories like these, it makes you think about sterilization. These are the type of people who shouldn't be allowed to even have children! Good grief!

It is really sad to read about young lives lost. Especially in such a tragic manner.
But then again, I thought all children like to suck their thumbs when they are babies. That's why pacifiers were invented. :P

You ask! I sometimes think I'm a b*gger for punishment, for watching the news. You know flowerchilde, we need a license to drive a car, to say we are competent to do so, I think people should get a license to have children, to state that they are fit to be parents. My dear God that poor child, apart from his injuries, can you imagine the fear and anxiety that he had to endure. Not speaking of the disbelieve, that someone that is suppose to love and care for him, all of a sudden turns on him like wild animal. Sick!
