OT: This makes me so incredibly sick to my stomach

Seriously, what is wrong with people???  I have this huge fear of something happening to Libby.  I look at her and see how beautiful and happy she is and just want to shield her from all harm.  I don't know what I would do with myself if anything ever happened to her.  We have been thinking about putting her in a day care so she can have interactions with other kids her age but I am terrified to do so.  You never know what goes on in those places!!!  It makes me so sad.

Disturbing... we have had a ton of baby deaths involving the parent rolling over on them... Scary

Very scary.  That is why I rarely had Libby in bed with us.  The times she was there I didn't sleep.  I was scared to death that I would roll over on her or she would wiggle her way and get caught some where or something.

I can't say what I want cause it's not polite.

Very disturbing. Do people really not care enough about human life to do this to anyone, but especially a child who cannot defend themselves or walk away from the situation. Unfortunately it is happening more and more. Parents need to pay attention to their co-parents and know that if a person will hit and abuse you, they will do the same to your child whether it belongs to them or not.

As far as day care centers. I was thinking of the daycare that is next door to my office so I could go and do lunch time and other unscheduled visits to make sure they are up to par with treating the children well. Fortunately my husband's family tradition is the mother in law moves in to assist with the new baby for the first 1-6 mos. I was very resistant to that idea but now...I may have to give it a go...

where are the moms when this is happening!?!?!?!?!? As a single mom who is currently seeing someone I can't tell you what I would do to some low life man that I suspected was or I caught abusing my child...that man couldn't hide well enough to save himself from me. I can't even say on this board what I would do becuase it may offend some people here. Let's just say it wouldn't end well for him on any level.

as for child care centers, I've been so fortunate that my mom has always been available to watch my son while I'm working, he has recently started pre-K and that scares me everyday, but it seems like you don't have as much to worry about in a school setting as you do in a day care setting, and besides, unless you homeschool you can't keep them from school forever...but dang it's not any fun what so ever!

Very scary and disturbing. I work for Child Protective Services so I see this kind of thing and child abuse daily. I can't stand it and as soon as I get home I kiss and hug and love my kids all night. I don't understand why people can't just put the crying baby down and get help, he actually had other people in the home if he couldn't deal get someone else...grrr people make me so mad!

what an ass.... its funny you posted this.. im pretty disgusted about a story that made our news today... a 15 yoa kid was killed at school during a fight with another kid over a girl... A GIRL?????  another one a 11 yoa kid killed his 1 yoa cousin because she wouldnt stop crying... again... wtf!
