I completely agree with that article. I don't consider myself educated or all that smart but I do remember when things were not like they are today. Kids could even go out after dark and play hide and seek and kick the can. Today they can't even walk to school by themselves, let alone be safe at school. They can't walk to the store. We walked our Grandson to school for six years back and forth because his parents worked and they were afraid to let him go by himself.
When do we take a stand? How far will it go? It started with animal abuse and has progressed to child abuse. Most people like that don't understand rehabilatation, if they go to jail they have three meals a day and a warm bed. These children are gone forever.
Stop and think, if your child were murdered and abused do you really think jail time would be enough of a punishment? Do you really think they would be rehabilitated or spend time in jail and come out and do the same thing over again?
I think it's time to really establish a punishment that would deter these people, that they would know they would get the ultimate punishment society can give, not in twelve years but when they are convicted.
