I get more upset when I see animal abuse rather than human abuse.
I certainly don't understand this statement at all!! Are children, and humans in general, less precious than animals? All you have to do is read your newspaper now and then and you will see that some children unfortunately lead horrible lives at the hands of their so-called parents/caregivers. Many never recover and carry this into their adulthood. I am a new grandmom (my grandson is 17 months old) and just hearing this story hurts so bad. I have said a prayer that someone in this little one's life may intervene if they know there is a pattern of abuse here. This breaks my heart! Mom of 6 cats this would have ruined my day too!
