How awful. I can never understand how anyone could do such a thing to an innocent child. Poor baby. Such people shouldn't be allowed to have kids.

As for why God allows it to happen...God didn't make this world as heaven...Heaven comes later, for those who pass the 'test' of 'life'. People like this woman will have a nice place called Hell to live in once they leave this world. Life on earth is more of a test for mankind, to see who makes it through, who has self control, who lives a good life, etc. Life is a test, not heaven, and evil things will happen. God gave human beings free will...the freedom of choice. We weren't created as pure angels...but as human beings with the freedom of choice, and we tend to try to do what we want. Some people strive to do good, while others strive for evil. That doesn't mean God likes it when people do such things. He hates such crimes, and such people will face punishment from Him after their death. God shouldn't be blamed for the actions of horrendous people who God will be punishing once they leave this world. If the people don't obey God, they're the ones to blame. Its like blaming a parent who happens to be the best parent in the world...always telling their child what's right and what's wrong, but the child doesn't listen. The child grows up and starts committing horrible crimes. The parents are people who were good and never raised him like that. You wouldn't say, "Why do his parents allow this to happen?" When one is an adult, that person is responsible...not his parents, not anyone else. This happens very often...sometimes kids turn out to be the opposite of their parents. Same thing applies here. God gave us a criteria to live by. If we don't listen, well...we're the ones to blame...not God. God will punish such people for their evildoings. Just my personal opinion on this matter.
