Date: 1/17/2006 6:10:00 PM From Authorid: 48250 This is so Terribly Tragic, so very sad., there really aren't any words sufficient, to express one's feeling about such a horrific Nightmare these blessed babies have endured....No, it doesn't seem there is any justice, yet I Hope those children are never released back into those people's custody.....When I was a little Girl, I heard of two men whom were Brothers., when they were children....the people who supposedly had custody of them., treated them horrific, they were fed dogfood and kept in a small room, rarely if ever were they permitted to leave., the living conditions these boys were in., the abuse, neither went to school and were deprived of learning to read or write...I will say this., people who abuse Children., their Day is Coming....Like my Dad Once said of those whom Abuse and Mistreat others., "Every Dog Has its Day"....In My Opinion., those whom abuse Children or any one for that matter, aren't good enough to be called, "Dog"....Thank You for sharing this....Take/Care |

Date: 1/17/2006 6:28:00 PM From Authorid: 225 not good enough to be called dog thats for sure they shoulda been sent to prison but im sure when they die they'll be sent sent some where far worse,for eternity |
Date: 1/17/2006 6:31:00 PM From Authorid: 63209 That is terrible. It is so sad that I have actually heard this stuff before, which I shouldn't have. This is a sad, sad world when things like this happen. =( |
Date: 1/17/2006 7:26:00 PM From Authorid: 63241 This is an example of how there is no justice at all for children. Have you heard about the case in Vermont where the sex offender got two months' jail sentence for having raped a six year old girl...this monster had been raping the girl for four years (since she was 2 years old for crying out loud). Where's the justice for this baby? And further, what does it tell any other potential child molesters in Vermont? -Wood Elf |

As for the post, I'm thinking about child abuse so much after reading a post here that described a little boy being beaten with a wooden paddle till it broke, and how much he shakes, just in fear of punishment. My own grandchildren are eight and six, they have good, happy lives, what I would wish for all little ones. |
Date: 1/17/2006 7:46:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341 Shai, it goes beyond what I can stand to even read about, knowing it happens, just makes me want to to more. I wish I could. |

Date: 1/17/2006 7:50:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341 Wood Elf, I haven't heard of that and I can't imagine a baby being abused in such a vile way. Justice needs our voice, our votes, and our demands that people who violate children suffer greater consequence. In my opinion they are more vile than any other. |
Date: 1/17/2006 7:59:00 PM From Authorid: 63026 grrr...makes me want to meet them in a dark alley and knock them out. I Hate American Justice, cause there isnt any, and its sickening. I would also like to meet the judge and the jury members in public. |

Psy, have you ever read the book, "A Child Called It"? A Child Called "It" is the most sickeningly violent book I've ever read: It's snuff literature. As Pelzer tells in A Child Called "It"—then retells in the sequels—his sweetness-and-light California family disintegrated in the mid-'60s. His dipso mother—a Mengele of the burbs—inexplicably singled out the 4-year-old for an escalating campaign of torture. Even as she treated his brothers kindly, she ground Dave's face into soiled diapers and made him eat dog poop. She starved him for weeks at a time and made him vomit after school to make sure he wasn't sneaking food. When he tried stealing scraps from the garbage, she laced the trashcan with ammonia. She forced him to take long ice-cold baths and shoved spoonfuls of ammonia down his throat. Often she locked him in the bathroom with a bucket of ammonia and Clorox: The toxic fumes in the "gas chamber" burned his esophagus and nearly killed him. She beat him with a dog chain, a broom, her fists, burned him on the gas stove, stabbed him in the chest, then left him to clean up the wound. She referred to him as "The Boy" and "It." His feckless, drunken father watched in silence, not daring to risk his wife's wrath. After eight years of this, Pelzer's teachers rescued him and spirited him into foster care. Eventually he managed to join the Air Force, marry, earn a college degree, and straighten out. His mother escaped punishment because, he says, child-abuse laws were weak in the early '70s. There are no people in Pelzer's book, only demons (his mother and grandmother), angels (Pelzer and a few foster parents), and incompetents. Psychological motivation scarcely interests him. He makes only a halfhearted effort to explain his mother's lunacy. The point is the suffering. As the trilogy progresses, Pelzer is forced to increase the dosage of wickedness to top what came before. (Iron law of sequels: They must be bloodier than the original.) His mother becomes more cartoonish, more Cruella De Vil. In the first book, she's horrible but erratic. By the third she is the incarnation of pure, calculating evil, saying things like, "You gave me no pleasure, so you were disposed of." Pelzer's dialogue, which is full of such over-the-top lines, is sometimes suspicious. Though it's reconstructed 20 or 30 years after the fact, it is eerily precise. His stories often seem too elaborate, detailed, and graphic to be real. There's no doubt he was horribly abused, and no one has disputed any of his tales, but they are mostly irrefutable. Everyone who could question them—his mother, father, and grandmother—has died. Pelzer's fame certainly can't be explained by literary merit. Unlike Mary Karr and Frank McCourt, fellow serial memoirists of terrible childhoods, Pelzer lacks prose ambition. His writing plods. "A single tear" is always rolling down someone's cheek, and he never tires of the "unconquerable human spirit." Excerpts from the book, but all pure evil because it was a true story. |
Date: 1/17/2006 8:20:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341 Once again, the point is the suffering of a child... who can live it and have a human heart? Who hurts a child so much and why? Is there ever reason enough? Is there ever reason enough to protect the abusers? And if so, why? |
Date: 1/17/2006 8:40:00 PM From Authorid: 63026 I read some excerpts of the book. What I was saying is, since they got light sentences. The Kids need more justice. |
Date: 1/17/2006 9:07:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341 Yes, they do. |
Date: 1/17/2006 9:59:00 PM From Authorid: 26203 I am sorry but I am to angry to write a response right now!! as I know for a fact it will get deleted |
Date: 1/17/2006 11:26:00 PM From Authorid: 63280 This is so wrong in so many ways. First, to let the parents off with just a slap on the wrist is horrible. I thought our criminal justice system was here to help protect people as well as punish. And it's bad enough that the children had to go through this, but even worse that they were separated as a result. Now instead of feeling relief they probably feel the fear and anxiety of never seeing their siblings again. Very sad. Really puts into perspective the changes that need to be made to both our justice system and social system. My heart goes out to those children. ~ Coffee Goddess |

Date: 1/18/2006 1:25:00 AM From Authorid: 62146 I do not know what to say it makes no sense to me I do not see what would twist someone so much that an instanct to care for you own children would be taken away. And Instead they just wanna hurt them it makes no sense. |
Date: 1/18/2006 6:16:00 AM From Authorid: 16916 DISGUSTING! |
Date: 1/20/2006 10:00:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341 Thanks for all your replies, I can't understand child abuse, can't imagine anyone who would hurt a child or why they do it, but it happens, day in and day out, I've seen the results. I just don't understand why, children are very special and hurting them goes beyond what I can imagine a human to be. A lesser being, doomed forever. I can't see it any other way. |
