I agree with you Sara. I don’t understand this stuff myself. I have two kids of my own and I’d do anything to keep them safe. I can’t imagine doing something to bring them harm. This woman may have had the right to take her own life but she had NO rights to take this childs life or to even try.
I agree with you that this child had no way to prrotect itself and being the Mother: it should have been her place to protect that child, not hurt it. What could possibly bring a Mother to do something like this ? I hope I never know !
this makes me FURIOUS that someone would do this to a baby who can not even defend their self… They did not get asked to be brought into this evil world…I don’t understand why people have babies if they are not going to take care of them… Get fixed or use protection its really easy to do…
