I've Never Seen Such Abuse

[momoffuzzyfaces]

I agree with you. I think sometimes, is it just me or what? Why don't
right minded people say Enough Already!! Child abuse like this should be
the subject of Sunday morning services all over the country.

Why don't a lot of people have more impluse control? Are they never taught
that as children? Abuse of the smallest & most helpless among us is evil.

I can remember when families thought of children as a gift from God. Now they act like they are a curse!!!

The little ones didn't ask to be born. They just get to suffer for their parents lack of control. There was a song a long time ago called "Bless the Beasts and the Children". One of the lines was Bless the beasts and the children because in this world they have no choice, they have no voice.
(or it may be they have no voice, they have no choice, I don't remember which but it still applies)

Why do people have babies if they don't want them?

My take: Because they want to have sex RIGHT NOW! Usually under the influence of some chemical, legal or otherwise, which leads to total non-thinking.

I think John Lennon was on to something when he said, "Most of us were born out of a bottle of whiskey on Saturday night."

That's horrible. That poor little baby. How could anyone do that?

They should just execute the ba$tard.

This is absolutely disgusting! I really really think people should have permits to have children. Not only permits, but people should undergo mental evaluations before hand. They should make a certain amount of money, prove they can provide for healthcare etc.

The neighbors next to me have a friend who comes over. She is 18. I invited her in once so her little girl could play with Kai, as she is only 10 months old and Kai is 9 months. I figured it would be a great opportunity for Kai to see another baby.

While over she showed me a video clip of her feeding a Warheads candy to her daughter while she sat there laughing at her puckered face. Why on earth would you do that to a baby, not only that it's super sour, but a choking hazard!!! This girl is only 18, and I also just found out that she is now pregnant with TWINS! Young girls all over america are popping out babies left and right, and they are not mature enough to handle them.

Two weeks ago the same girl came over to ask my roomate for a ride home. His car is not working right now, so of course, he had to say no. My bf was here so I offered to take her to her house. It was about 9 at night, the baby was dressed in shorts and a short sleeved shirt. The mom had no carseat and was going to WALK home! It would have taken her at least 2 hours to get there. On the ride there her baby was fussing and she told her to stop acting like a dork and go to bed.

I feel the same way. We have to be licensed to drive, to own a gun, and to perform many jobs. Why isn't it the same with having children?? How many people lose their right to vote when they have been convicts, why don't they lose their right to be a parental figure?? If you can't act responsibly, keep yourself out of trouble, graduate from school, have a job that will support you and your family, then you shouldn't have the right to have them.

When I did medical billing, Medicaid/Welfare paid for abortions, but not for tubal ligations and vasectomies. What is wrong with the government, funding the killing of babies, but not the prevention??

I know many people don't advocate sex education in schools, but I think it's needed now more than ever. Just telling kids to abstain isn't working. Or kids who aren't getting the love and guidance at home who end up having babies because they want that unconditional love from someone. We have too many children having children.

Too bad they can't make it the law for all kids to start birth control once they get to the age that they are interested in sex, and then it can be reversed. Something needs to be done. I'm a single mother, but I have a great well paying job, can afford everything I need and much more than that, plus have all the medical coverage I need to keep my kids safe and healthy. If a single mother can do it, others can, and if they cannot they shouldn't be having children.

When I was younger we had nothing, and it makes me feel so great to know that I can provide for my children. I wish everyone would think that way. What is better for the children, not for themselves. I agree, sterlization should be covered!!! Once Matt and I are married I would love to adopt a needy child from an abusive situation. We've talked about it before, and once we buy our house I'd really like to adopt. I've brought two children into this world, and I would like to save one. I can't imagine all the children out there without someone to love them. It just makes me so sad.
